Wow, people still play cricket? I thought it went out about the same time Britian withdrew from the Raj.
Oh, no one pays it any attention anymore.
Elliot: I thought I said discreet. Gwen: What, do you see nipple?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Caroma ... yeah, cricket is still played occasionally but as ita points out, no-one pays it any attention. I mean, World Series Cricket has nothing on the Baseball World Series. ::coughcoughcough::

Keeping out of the cricket discussion, because I know Caroma is just being...Caroma.
My favourite exchange in "Same Time Same Place" (from memory):
Anya: ...and Spike's mad in the basement.
Willow: Spike's what in the whatment?
Anya: Mad. Base.
That's old school Buffy dialogue!
t edit OK, I lied. Cricket is passionately followed throughout the Indian subcontinent (among other places), which means that in terms of numerical support it totally kicks baseball's fat lardy ass!!!

Even in countries whose greatest player is a big fat cheat ....

Despite having no interest in cricket, I do feel I should be nodding here. Go Cricket! Choose Cricket!

Jim--well, he wasn't a cheat when he was fat. That's the rub.
But apart from that I have absolutely nothing to say in his defense.
Fay--that'll be your Yorkshire DNA, finally kicking in.

There isn't anything that can be said in his defence. I just hope he does the honourable thing and fades into anonymity. His legacy as a bowler will stand the test of time but if he keeps poking his fool head into the public arena, his legacy as a human being will fall further than it has already.
And did you know that actor Camden Toy played a Gentleman and Gnarl? Way to go!
Yep. Did y'all know* he's a mime and as a result of his and the other guys performances, Joss Almighty changed his opinion about mimes. No more mime jokes or He will smite your asses.
* no, I guess you wouldn't, since I heard it on the "Hush" Jossentary on the Season Four DVD. ;)
