At the urgings of a mate, I was convinced to watch the Superbowl Shenanigans early in the week.
Unfortunately, after studiously watching the entire game, I am no further advanced. Try as I might the rules of the game still evade me. While I acknowledge the speed and passing (throwing) of some of the players I find it all a bit of a mystery.
I mean why is it a touchdown, when the ball doesn’t meet the turf or whatever that surface is. Just saying. NRL, AFL, Rugby Union it is not. Perhaps I better watch some replays before next season.
Steve Smith finds himself sidelined by another concussion after a nasty incident in the field during the latest T20 game against Sri Lanka.
It certainly was a game filled with theatre and great to see Josh Hazelwood, one of my favourites with the white ball red ball or pink ball for that matter.
Unless you have recently been living in a cave or under a rock you would realise the NRL is just around the corner.
Ho-hum – I watched a little of the All Stars game and while it too was entertaining it seems like we are in for another season of whinging players.
Can’t wait – not. How I yearn for a decent game of old fashioned rugby league.
