The avatar challenge

Amla looks in really, really good touch. I'd be concerned if i were Craig.

Maybe he'll do what Ashwell Prince did when he was on top of his game in England in August, and repeatedly edge balls he'd normally have missed because he was in such good touch.

Heres my bet for the New Zealand vs West Indies series - Vettori will score more runs than Franklin. Given Franklin's domestic form thats reasonably generous IMO. Perhaps for a two week bet?
My bet with 99*'s looking good at the moment - Vettori 59 runs vs Franklin 7 runs with a maximum of one innings left for both batsmen in the series. :)

Why is it that several people think it's a punishment to avatar one of the greatest pop musicians in history? :huh:

Aside from the fact that far less has ever been proven that has ever been assumed... being a child-molester (or a domestic abuser, like Ike Turner) doesn't actually dectract from someone's musical skill.

Why anyone would want to force someone to avatar someone who's famous for being a child molester is beyond me though. Are we suggesting that people should start telling people to put up Ian Huntley (whose crimes were admittedly even worse, but the point is the same) when they win avatar challenges?

Meh. You may as well say "being a good musician doesn't actually justify someone's child-molesting." I wouldn't choose MJ personally but i wouldn't want him in my own avatar, hell no.

There's hundreds of things that I'd not want in my avatar nor would I ever remotely consider putting in other people's. That's the point. If you're MJ-ing someone else because of MJ's child-molestation "connections", then I'd say that's dubious stuff TSTL.

However, if you're doing it because you think he's a poor musician, then frankly you can GAGF.
