Cricket
Now I'm not a huge fan of pretty much any sport, but...
...man, IF YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF A CRICKET REPLAY, AND RAIN HAS STOPPED PLAY SO A RECENT GAME IS DISPLAYED, HAVE A FUCKING WATERMARK, BECAUSE IF I SWITCH OVER AND SEE AUSTRALIA FOR 279-7 (AT THE MOMENT) DURING THE ASHES, I MIGHT JUST BE A LITTLE PISSED WHEN I FIND OUT IT'S NOT THE CURRENT MATCH.
I MEAN FOR FUCKS SAKE, YOU CAN PUT THE SBS WATERMARK ON THERE, SCROLLING TEXT EVERY NOW AND THEN IS NOT ENOUGH TO INFORM US, IT IS BAD FOR THE HEALTH OF AUSTRALIANS. ARRRGGHH.
(Emphasis mine.)

I used to an absolute cricket nut, but over the last 2 years I have changed so that I don't give a shit about it now. Go football, proper football, the one played with the round ball; the true working class sport worldwide.
Oh, the cricket did give me one of my shining moments. One day walking out of the SCG after a day watching the game someone yelled "There's John Howard!" My brother who was with me said he saw my eyes light up. Quick as a flash I was over at his car yelling abuse at him, such as "You're a fucking redneck. You deserve a bellet to the head" etc. This lasted for about a minute until a security guard came along and pushed me away. Still, it was one of the best minutes of my life!
I'm not really that much a cricket fan - I don't know any of the lingo. But I'll give any sport a chance (no pun intended). Soccer, aka football, is a good game - not a particular fan of the riots, race hate (if only to the extent it exists here), or fake-injuries involved though.
Amusing as it is, I doubt you'd get away with the Howard thing nowadays - a well choreographed ballet (I will assume that's what you meant *waves to A-S-I-O*) to the head can be quite unpleasant.
I imagine he gets a lot of these outbursts - he's got an Aboriginal curse on him for goodness sakes, surely it would bring a little doubt into his mind that maybe he is not serving in the publics best interests?
Being a former fatty private school boy with bad knees I was in the E grade at school. We would have to travel up to 100 kms a game to find a team equally bad to play.
As such I have no love for organised sport. Or being beaten up.
Thanks a lot private school education
Nothing will get into Howard's head that what he is doing is not in the public interest as he, like many Australians, suffers from Rambo syndrome; a white, Anglo, middle-class male who thinks that society discriminates against him.
I think maybe soccer is getting more popular because of globalisation. And they wear more flattering clothes.
