the seconds turn in to minutes,
the minutes turn in to hours.....sounds familier???

WOW! An excellent comeback, cric crazy!
I could relate to that more in my "younger" days and EVEN now sometime.

Good one CC.
Know that feelings mate.
Know it all too very well.
Funny part is, before i found BC, i used to wonder if i am the only one who is this crazy. But now i know i'm not alone, there are many like me.

Go ahead and pick Shamim Choudhury's bone. He needs a hip replacement surgery anyway.

I take offense to that. We're not as spoiled as you might think. Why, just the other day i had to ride my segway to work when my Ferrari broke down.
But seriously, cut it with the whole stereotypical anti-american bull. Thats all I hear from people living in Europe nowadays...Sheesh!

Got to accept the hangover, if you like to drink ......
Problem is if the party is spoiled by some A$$*ole (S.Chow / AAK) the hangover might hurt....
Then it reaches to the level of sacrifice...

u.s. fans have to stay up all night over the game duration, unlike others.

i have no sympathy for viweres of BD cricket in the UK. here in america BD home games start at around 12.00 AM at midnight AMerica time. but in the UK that is 5.00 AM in the morning which isnt a bad time to wake up if u get to sleep around 12.00 AM midnight. that is five hours of sleep.
as opposed to viewers in america have to watch BD cricket at the time they normally sleep all through the night whereas Europeans just wake up early and can watch it throughout the morning.

I am not amused.
Nafi, please take note and dont let him ever come to your dad's restaurant.
Miraz, please take up this issue to the highest authority in BD and get Shamim to personally come to this forum and give an explaination.
US fans, stop feeling so proud and pleased with yourselves.

I know why? UK fans saw it on TV and USA fans on internet. He only mentioned internet.
