what are you on about? footballers are a bunch of thugs & hoodlums, just like cricketers. there are of course numerous exceptions to the rule. what I am trying to get across to you is this: the australian obsession with socalled sport will one day prove this country's downfall.

hundreds of hostages, we don't want to know about. how's the cricket going? now we've got one of our own over there & it's a brand new ball game (pardon the pun).
