Jonbrooks chucking Megathread

What an emotional roller coaster ride 2016 has been already

Started off with me teaming up with a poster I dislike (tjb) trying to break down a stubborn honestbharani who was making no sense at all in the ICC rankings thread. Was baffled at first but then gave up and found it funny when apparently word for word full conversations that were all directly replied to was deemed as quoting out of context.

Yesterday night there was a gathering where we held a secret santa (late I know) and potluck. For the potluck I was one of the few that was supposed to buy drinks so I got a bottle of Glenlivet. We ended up not drinking it so I brought it home and effectively got away with contributing nothing to the potluck. Win. Also received a portable speaker for my phone for secret santa. Double win.

Today morning I woke up late and couldn't make it to a lunch that some old friends I didn't really care about had organised. Win.

This afternoon I read this thread and it was funny as hell for a while before I realised that Pratters is probably the most stubborn man on the planet. Then I just felt sad.

Sure Daemon... take shots after things are done.. Classy


Dont wanna reignite the debate again but it is perfectly clear where it was out of context to people reading the thread. You quoted a conversation that was hypothetical and used it to claim I said something I never did. You are welcome to have a laugh about facts though...

The Pakistani LO team won't be happy about this.

Couldn't get past the first paragraph, specifically the implication that the term "chucking" is somehow "politically incorrect"

what a world we live in

You should, reckon the product looks quite promising

Apart from the degree of elbow flex, it also measures arm speed, and what it calls arm twist and arm force. Arm twist is a measurement of the rotation in a spinner's forearm as they deliver; the latter is a measure of the effort a bowler puts in, in Newtons. These readings can provide valuable data on the levels of fatigue for the bowlers, their effectiveness for different variations, and insights on subtle changes in their actions across a spell or a match.

Lies. You Ctrl+F 'd and searched for 'Protractor' and closed it when you didn't find the word.

I look forward to this new device effectively eradicating all but one off spinner from cricket.
