HOLIDAY WEEKEND

[Cynical Ninja]

Softball lololol. You know what sport is almost the exclusive domain of girls and soft-middled pretend athlete drunken salesmen? Softball. And the only way cricket can be considered "tactical" is that only the retarded (I think you call them "royals") or criminally insane can figure out the damn rules.

PS if by other countries you mean Japan, Cuba, most of Latin America, and all of North America then yeah I guess baseball has limited appeal. That's essentially an entire hemisphere crazy about a game played with sticks. How many countries NOT floating off the coast of Europe like a giant turd play cricket? Didn't think so...

Softball is diet baseball and its equally as tedious and lacking in real physical tactical challenge.

I understand you can't get that grey milkshake sloshing around your cranium you call a brain to absorb the complex rules of Cricket. Yanks don't do complexity and subtlety I get that, you want instant gratification served with nachos and a gallon of soda.

India are cricket mad and the population of India is more than north America, latin America (where baseball is nowhere near as popular as soccer), Japan and Cuba combined my friend. Add to that the populations of cricket mad nations like Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, the West Indies (carribean), Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Ireland and Holland. The cricket world cup is truly a “world” cup not a completely North American based “world series” ha ha!

I know Americans like to think they are number one at everything including sport but I'm sorry to burst your bullshit bubble but there are infinitely more people playing cricket than baseball in the world you chump!

Before claiming one sport is more popular than another do your research and you won't look like so much of a tosspot!
