While Rugby is okay if you want to play a real game then Aussie Rules Football is the best. You can tell that because only the Irish will play us at it, and that’s only if we go easy on them.

Excuses....

...Baseball defense involves not only catching balls in the air, but also catching ground balls, and throwing, neither of which I saw on the cricket highlight video. Perhaps they are part of cricket as well...

They are a part but not called catches. In cricket a "catch" is specifically preventing the ball from hitting the ground after the batsman has hit it. This puts the batter out. That is Caught out.

Catching the ball on the ground can be referred to as a scoop. If this is followed by a throw which eventually hits the wicket, knocking the bails off while the batsman is outside the crease, the batsman is out. That is run/ran out.

A batsman can also be bowled out. If the bowler hits the batsman's wicket with the ball, knocking the bails off, the batsman is out. If the batsman's leg gets hit by the bowled ball and the umpire thinks that the ball would have hit the wicket if the batsman's leg had not got in the way, the batsman is out. These are bowled out. The former is clean bowled, the latter is bowled out leg before wicket (or LBW).

Bowling

run out  

Bowled out

Ha Ha We aren't playing you this year because last year our chaps gave your chaps a few friendly love taps and now you say we are too rough. Stone the crows we only did cause we like you. :p

Oh, lighten up. Heddle's contrived machismo and posturing is all just compensation for his diminutive.........automobile*.

Apparently they are well received by trendy gay men as well.*

*Not that there's anything wrong with that!

Oh noes--I've been worried about this since I started having feelings that I'd like to move to London.

Whilst it might have been nice to hold onto the colonies it was far nicer to bring everyone home and annoy the French in some wars on a proper continent


ok Louis, the first round's on you if we meet!

I'll show you some french!

Do not forget your white flag.


I doubt that you would, it is item 1 in any French survival kit.   :D

cochonchien Anglais!

The white flag is the flag of His Most Christian Majesty of france.  Of Course you fly it, since we would never shoot at le bien amie's banner!

The French signal for a parley - to permit you to survive for a few more miserable years- is a red flag, since that is the color of the your greatclothes and the blood you would otherwise shed.

It's occurred to me to start a thread about fundy humor, UD in particular, but I would have to find at least a few examples to start with.  I find it's almost impossible to find any instances of IDCers even trying to be funny; they are virtually all humorless, self-important blowhards who can't generate or appreciate any humor more subtle or complex than a digitally recorded fart.  The only humor they're capable of seems to be the unintentional kind, which ultimately manifests itself here, not on UD.

DaveTard wasn't a fundie, but he could force a laugh out of me sometimes. Count that as a plea of mitigation.

And Dick to the Dawk was a masterpiece.

But otherwise, sadly, you're right. Brites was a shocking waste of electrons.

Oh and Schrodinger's Dog and Fusilier,

I, personally, love the French and France. However I was merely reflecting, in my previous comments, Official British Foreign Policy of the period which can pretty much be summed up in nine words:

"If it annoys the French, it must be good."

Of course things have moved on now. Sort of. Almost. Well, kind of.

Louis

P.S. SD, I have parental duties to attend to on the weekend of the 26/9/2009, so no can do beer I'm afraid. My parents are demanding grandson attention. We shall have to do beer in France one day. The food is better for starters, and the wine is much better....

You will NOT see them denying teleology, instead they just stay silent and stick to whatever they can back up with science.   You won't see public claims of:

"Meteorology does not admit conscious anticipation of the future (ie consious forethought)..."

"Physics is a completely mindless process..."

"(Chemistry and the Brain) -- With all deference to religious people, the notion that humans were created in the image of God can be set aside."

"Astronomy rejects all supernatural phenomena and causations."

No.  No sir.   These kinds of public pronouncements are found only within--and are inherently part of-- EVOLUTION.  Evolution is incompatible with Christianity.


To phrase a coin, that's not even halibut.

I think the rational there is that even though God might have had a bad case of tinnitus and even self doubt that he himself existed after pushing the plunger the deluded peon that promulgated that little titbit had no doubt that before, during and after the Hawking singularity was just a cosmic sideshow for the author of the Bible.

Hey, no one said we were perfect.

In fact quiet a few people pointed out that we weren't. So we took over their countries, shot a bunch of them, went for a mild bit of genocide on occasion, and then gave those countries back when they were truly boned.

No one said it was a *good* system.

In fact it really didn't work. We should have left the crooks and nutters at home in England to be dealt with by the French and other European chums whilst we sunned ourselves in Oz and roamed the beautiful country that is now the USA.
