Who is your favourite cricketer?

Its called English because we wanted to keep it that way, just so you can still have something to be proud of in your ghastly little island. Otherwise, It'd be 'American.'

It's called English because the language is a culmination of England's culture. Take latin and french. Anglocise. Go to other places. Encounter other cultures. Imprison them. Steal the best words from their language and anglocise them.

America's heavy-handed butchery of the language is borne out of the steriotypical American idiot who can't spell and thinks his random use of the language makes it unique and gives it a feeling of being his (see "Bushisms).

If it was a reflection of British "culture", than English would not exist as a coherent language.

Oh please, English has always borrowed a lot of a whole bunch of languages and you British have been butchering it for a millenia.

Get over it mate. Things are spelt differently - what's the big deal? You can still understand what the words are, just give it up and save us all some time.

 

[Pedro Delgado]

You've started drinking again haven't you.

 

[silentstriker]

You've started drinking again haven't you.

Yes.

 

[Mister Wright]

You've started drinking again haven't you.

Not yet. Maybe in an hour or so.

 

[grecian]

Hey you lot, show some respect to our American master.

I for one, think its great they're the only superpower in the world nowadays, its certainly made the planet a safer, more united and happier place.

Oh and Colin Dredge, is my fave player

Please don't do this. It's just shameless flame-baiting, you're abusing an entire nation here.

 

[PhoenixFire]

How could you take somebody with Ajit Agarker in the Av seriously anyway?

Err, in case it wasn't clear...I wasn't being serious.

 

[silentstriker]

The real question is - how can you take anyone who doesn't have Ajit Agarkar as their photo seriously? They are obviously in denial.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Err, in case it wasn't clear...I wasn't being serious.

Oh.

My bad. No harm done.

 

[Pedro Delgado]

Yes.

I knew it.

Quite easily, unless it's SS...

 

[silentstriker]

Quite easily, unless it's SS...

Thats quite cruel, coming from the President.

Why are you getting so sensitive. It is just a language. Its not like hes insulting the English people, hes just criticizing their interpretation of the language.

 

[Burgey]

Back to the faves:

Wasim Akram - anyone who can take all those wickets AND jag a test 200 is awesome. Great to watch.

Warney - for on-an-off field entertainment.

AB - pugnacity.

Sachin & Lara - talent to burn.

Heath Streak - wholeheated.

Inzy - fun to watch him try and run between wickets.

David Brain - because of his name, and he had a wonderful cricket ..........
