Twas the Night Before Competition .........

and all through the world all the cricketers were stirring and finalizing their teams. Team Jiminy is chirping loudly, Blairs Bombers are aiming high, Gonubie Chinas are polishing up, the Hobos are hopping a train, the DRMTEAM is resting nicely, Hart's Gas is firing, The Flying Toasters are buttering both sides, Bubble Gum is blowing big, and the Chiloquins are having a pow wow. Arvinder/ is browsing for a new name, the Old Boggers are scraping muck off their shoes, The Smashing Windows are windexing their targets while Dr. Teeth is rinsing and spitting. Agnoman is praying hard and the Goggas are hoping not to get smashed. The dusters are dusting off their brooms and the Great Gryllidae are warming up their wings. It's GO time people. Tomorrow morning (or afternoon depending on where you are) it will all begin. With 17 teams I hope everyone is ready for a fun time!

Let the games begin!!

THIS JUST IN: We think we have found a way to watch the live match on Sunday!! We may all be crowded around Michaels computer but luckily he has an obscenely large screen! The game starts at 9:30am England vs. Pakistan. South Africa is also playing Scotland starting at 5:30 - Michael, Sean and I will be up for that one as well so anyone wanting to really get their cricket on is free to come for the early match, but you'll need to bring me a latte for early admission.

  1. JUST IN Kevin Pieterson is not playing in the first match against the Netherlands - hope the rain stops soon. Still time to change your team if you wish.

  2. I was just sitting down with a nice cup of tea to "watch" the match here at work - and saw Pietersen was out. Just enough time to make a trade.

  3. I guess I'm dusted. Kevin was my main man. He didn't call and let me know he wasn't playing.
