Someone (who wasn't an expat Aussie cricket blogger whose name rhymes with "blurby" or a person whose loins spurned him) called My Lord Nathan a "brilliant off-spinner".
Honestly.
Graeme Swann fans - who evidently felt he was a shoo in for the Cricketer of the Year award - get upset when you remind them that he wasn't really nominated for it. One of them even called me a fool. I laughed so hard I peed in my pants a little.
God got 214 runs in some cricket match somewhere. I thought it was Sachin Tendulkar, but it seems I was looking at the wrong scorecard.
Sky have actually been showing this series after all. They are alternating it between sky sports 3 and 4 at their will. This keeps us on our toes and makes it difficult to record. It's clearly an ECB conspiracy.
Western Australia have been so shit in the Sheffield Shield thus far that even Andrew McDonald got a century against them. That's just embarrassing. It seems all West Aussie fans have ignored my calls to knock him off. A West Aussie duck, however, has not. Yay for ducks!
I had a moment of madness and forfeited the Ashes. That moment passed.
And finally, I fell asleep and dreamt that Marcus North got a century and that Nathan Hauritz's figures for the first innings were 2-153.
Thank Sachin, I mean God, it was only a dream, eh?

Bedi rejected the offer with the novel excuse, "I don't have any shoes,"
Absolute awesomeness.
They were scared by "an angry father duckling". I think someone should get the tabloids after it's parents...
Mouseman, I love Bedi's excuse. Also, Shane Warne is getting in on the action. I'm pleased someone is standing up for My Lord Nathan. I know he's not the most brilliant spinner ever, but he's still our spinner and we should be standing behind him.
Jonathan, that money I paid Mr Duck was well spent.
Bedi rates Nate as much as Swann. Is that taken to be as a compliment or insult?
The test that just finished was more of a nightmare though. And it was sadly too realistic.
Now, get all logical on me, Sunny. He called My Lord brilliant, that's all I need.
That test was horrible and so close to the Ashes is not good. We are now below England in the test rankings and that is so much worse than losing to India. We really need to win the Ashes.
