I've never watched cricket but love a good game of football. The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco Forty Niners are playing tomorrow in Dallas's first regular season game. I missed all of the pre season games and heard they didn't do very well.


Dallas lost 17 to 28....

Never been into American Football, i do however like ice hockey.
The Dockers lost (bugger) and one guy suffered a broken jaw .

ouch....

Never been to an ice hockey game either. I've seen the Mavericks (basketball) live and will never forget it. Loved it! We were so close I could see the expressions and the moves were .... like I said, never forget it.

Hehe I went to Superbowl XXXII unfortunately the Broncos beat the Packers which kind of ruined it for me.

Been to a few Arizona Cardinals games and a Packers Lions one sadly also went to some Baseball game that bored me stupid.

I was at White Hart Lane when Tottenham Hotspur beat Aston Villa 6-2. It was brilliant to watch.

Is it true that watching cricket is like watching baseball on valium? If so then it's pretty boring. ... or relaxed.

I shudder to think of the answers you might give.

Watching Cricket can be exciting, it can also be like watching a pork chop go off.
I have watched a few baseball games, i would however prefer to sit and watch a cricket match.

I went to see the Texas Rangers and it wasn't exciting enough. They stood around the bases and I guess I'm more into the physical plays of the games. If I'm in the mood for a little less exciting (physical) sport to watch, it would be golf or tennis. I've watched the Mavericks (basketball) and some of the moves are amazing.. same with football. In football it seems to be more rough and the plays are unbelievable sometimes.

Aussie rules is my other love, i couldn't watch golf, and i have been to Wimbledon to see a few tennis matches, however that was a few years ago.

"pork chop go off"... is this another way of saying "we're having a barbecue" ... or ... "we're cooking out on the grill"...?

That can be quite fun, it all depends on the company of course.
