ICC World T20

Chokers? No, actually – SA are just crap

May 11, 2010

In recent months I have made my dislike of the South African side pretty public and I’ve been called some pretty nasty names because of it. Traitor. Fickle. Lame. You get the picture. Don’t get me wrong, I do support them, though. But only because I have to. Kind of like you would have to [...]

I am live, are you alive?

June 3, 2009
