YAWN. There--I've said it. I know, I know, I fail to appreciate the
nuances of the game, etc etc. But, yawn. I would rather watch paint dry.
There. Now that's done, the fans among you can get back to cheering and
waiting for the first pitch.

(1) I'm with you, Dawne. If I HAVE to go to a game (like if my kid is
playing) you can be sure I will have my book and my needlework with me.
(2) The only thing I ever liked about cricket was tea in the pavilion at
the intermission.

Oh but I have, David played for the navy years ago and not going was
putting up a black but going was dismal. Then there came the year
when I was torn as to what I would do but elected in the end to march
with the other CND protestors to the Nuffield Club - David always said
it was his worst moment, to see me march through with the kids in the
pram, banners flying and he hoping the kids didn't see him and call to
Daddy :)
I think I would take cricket over baseball though. Great big
steroided males, spitting, scratching their crotches and a game that
like cricket moves at the speed of molasses going uphill.

It wasn't always like that and maybe it will go back to what it used to be.
