Not bothered that much about cricket. My county team is crap and my national team is in meltdown...
Darts? Watch it occasionally, not that bothered...
Irish Rugby? As in the Magners League or something?
Now, football is a sport, and is important enough to be the spark that caused a war between El Salvador and Nicaragua. When Dallas and Miami go to war over an American football match, be sure to let me know...:D
(BTW, having a family that watches American football, as well as baseball (yawn), Aussie rules football and Gaelic football, I do like American football)
But a question, if I may ask one:
There is a sport that I can't remember the name of that used to be shown over here around ten to fifteen years ago, which originates from the Indian sub-continent. I'll try to explain it:
There are two teams, and the game is played in rounds. Each round, one member from a team has to cross into the other teams half, who are all holding hands and form part of a circle. The lone player has to try and tag one of the players and then get over the line before he himself is tagged. If he does, his team gets a point. If not, the other team gets the point.
Does anyone know what the game is called?
