I have never seen a game. Does that happen often? It happens once in a while in baseball but that looks like it could happen all the time!

Ahh yes the exciting game of cricket.
Seen that happen before.

Happens fairly frequently; it's just one of those things...

now that hurts.....i don't know whats worse, gettinghit there playing the game, or having to sit thru one of those matches
I actually had the painful experience of watching a match when i was in australia a couple years ago india against australia....woke up in the morning turned on tv and the game was on, i watched for about an hour, left the hotel and got breakfast, ate breakfast came back to my room and it was still on...4 hours later went out shopping, ate lunch came back to the room....it was still on....went out around 6pm for dinner and when i left it was still going on......the most boring thing to have to sit thru....the only ones i felt sorry for were the announcers, how can you sit there and find things to talk about for 8+ hours?

I feel his pain-I think that sums it up pretty well

It's called being calm. It isn't an intense sport; but more one that ebbs and flows. Patience is a virtue; and every ball is something to talk about.

A shot in the pills....that's just not cricket!

[Danno]

anyone else get like "Phantom pains" form seeing that happen to another guy?


I still can't manage to fully explain how much this kind of blow hurts a guy. I've tried, but alas, she still thinks we are just silly...
