I hope all you NZ goons cough up money for the ACC telethon. They're a loving national treasure at this point, and it is a crime that they're not being paid by Sky and on the alternate audio stream, but things are what they are so give them cash so they can continue.

Smorgasbord posted:All jokes aside Australia have a pretty formidable team for the WC. My money is on the country that still openly hates people that aren't white, as opposed to the one that sticks them on an island if they are discovered in a boat.

I should've posted this, too. Another way the ACC are paying for themselves to be able to commentate the World Cup: http://www.theaccnz.com/photos/the-men-of-cricketing-manginas/ (yes. It is was it sounds like - and its fantastic).

Mister Chief posted:If someone score a century and there's no one around to see it, did it ever really happen? Guptill: only ever scoring runs when they literally don't count. The rest of the team should be embarrassed as gently caress, though. E: conspiracy theory corner: the rest of the team agreed to get out for gently caress all to try and boost his confidence. At least, I hope that's the case. The Rabbi T. White fucked around with this message at 06:44 on Feb 9, 2015 |

Butt Wizard posted:People who whine about ODI cricket at Eden Park need to eat a dick. The atmosphere owned, the crowd owned and the field is the same size for both teams. It just means your captain has to set a decent field and your bowlers have to be able to bowl. In the end, the size of the field had no impact on the result whatsoever. My only complaint about cricket at Eden Park is that the security are total fuckwits.

Butt Wizard posted:I'll give you that - all yesterday was missing was the pitch invasion at the end. The last match I went to there was the NZ/England match about two years ago. Game was boring as gently caress, so people were attempting to amuse themselves - security stepped in and kicked out 6 people for yelling "Root is a wanker" and some dude in a pink bunny suit (that everyone obviously loved) for starting a Mexican wave. Also apparently they ejected Leigh Hart from the ground yesterday...?

Ratios and Tendency posted:http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11414387 Oh gently caress right off. Way to ruin people's fun. If they're going to shut them down, they should at least have the balls to admit that they don't have a sense of humour, instead of some crap about "invading the pitch".

Wandle Cax posted:Hey they can't stop them commentating from the car park, unless there's some kind of broadcast regulations which means they can't even commentate of a video feed. There will be restrictions of some variety in place. There will be something that would get you sued for broadcasting the game without rights, I'm sure. That doesn't mean they couldn't just talk crap for the entire time and give score updates, though...
