Cricket's not even a sport. Public school boys padded with more stuffing than American Footballers, to play with a tiny ball that doesn't go that fast or high, with little or no contact between players - Not so much a sport as damn right obscene. Pah! Cricket, indeed! I've always said that rounders is a far superior game to cricket or baseball.
Diego Maradona used his hands in football when he wasn't supposed to back in 1986, much to my joy. The Hand of God, indeed.
I've never understood the desire to name American Football as "football" when you're never bloody done picking it up, holding it, hugging it and chucking it around. American Football doesn't get much cred here because it's seen as rugby with padding, ergo the pansy sport. I don't understand either game, but then I've never really tried.
And, em, how bout those Green Bay Packers, eh? Think you cheeseheads'll win anything next season?
(I wiki'd them. It told me to call GBP fans cheeseheads. Blame wiki.)
Oh, and I left my dirty pictures in my other coat. And I left my coat somewhere inappropriate. I'm sure they'll turn up in the tabloids soon enough.
