Cricket
Ok, I know this blog is supposed to be about Afganistan, but le me digress:
Cricket, that noble sport which was obviously invented to make Americans feel even more stupid and unsophisticated.....I was sitting around today, waiting for somethings I needed for a job to show up and I happened to see some guys on the TV playing cricket. I guess our DirectTV comes off of Arabsat, or something. Anyways, these guys in ridiculous-looking helmets kept running back and forth, throwing balls at each other and swinging what may well be the most cumbersome bludgeon ever devised (thank the British, the same people who brought us the MG, the Vincent Black Shadow and driving on the left). If anyone can and would care to explain the rules (if there are any) and perhaps the origin of this noble pursuit, I would appreciate it greatly. Oh, and Nikita, pass my condolences on to the boy, it looks like the Sox are going to have to wait until next year. Cowboy Up!
