Cricket gets interesting? Wow, who knew?
I agree totally with your suggestion that cricket is boring. After all, any sport where you can play for 5 whole days and still fail to determine a winner must be boring by definition. Even baseball, long, tedious and convoluted as it is, always awards one team or another the game.
I agree superficially with your point, which was well-made, but all sports are essentially silly games, and I simply prefer other sports to cricket. Cricket's reputation as boring has, however, made it a traditional target for sarcasm and jokes. It was this tradition I was following in my post above, which was light hearted and not serious at all. Good job you agreed with me, instead of over-reacting like a twat, though.
