I’ve been away the past week in England getting stuff done, and yeah, I had a bunch of stuff to talk about, but, frankly, it all pails in significance compared to what the England cricket team has achieved. I’m not even going to discuss it, there’s plenty out on the web about it all, but I just wanted to say well done England and “in yer face” to the Australians. I will say though that the most pleasurable bit of the whole thing is the spirit in which it was all played, the way in which both teams were almost rooting for each other, the way Shane Warne shook KP’s hand after he scored his Ashes-winning 150, the way the two teams got pissed with each other after every game. Well done to the players for being such wonderful representatives of a truly remarkable and exciting game. Footballers could learn a thing or two.
