"Foxes 4 Ever!!!"
Posts: 2,090
I was listening to the Radio 5 phone in earlier and its amazing the amount of people who seem to be making the switch from football to cricket at the moment in terms of interest and I have to say I am one of them.

There has been absolutely nothing in the football season so far that has given me any inspiration, Leicester or otherwise. I have found the cricket a lot more enthralling. Before the series I was not really into cricket whatsoever but like many, I have found myself gripped to the TV for every minute of the recent tests as it is pure drama and as Richie Bennett described it, its not just a sport but also a human drama as the game of cricket is based around the errors of the people who play it.

So I was just wondering if people felt the same, I'm not losing my passion for Leicester or football in general, but I think the attitude of the players in the cricket in particular on both sides has put footballers around the Premiership to shame. What do you all think?

So what you're saying is he's either gay or 300lbs and a boozer.

Interesting way to praise your beloved hero...

He's both, but also anorexic and straight.

He's everything.

Football > Tennis > Rugby > Cricket

Hahaha. UF is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen/played. I also love the fact that it's taken SO seriously when it truly is ridiculous.

I shouldn't be up this late. I've got to get up in 4 hours :-/

Yeah, as a serious sport it's just stupid but it's a good laugh if you're with mates.

Hehe, I'll probably get up at about 3pm :P
