ALL OUT- Ten Comments of the Game
FAST'n'FURIOUS ACTION
Florida Thunder 1-89 (12 ov)beat NY Storm 10-88 (19.2 ov)
so i ventured out to watch the first ever pro cricket game in the USA. as a rookie to cricket i was full of excitement; the best way of giving my review is just listing them-
-Fast'n'Furious is the motto of the league. Well, they had the furious part right away, the game started 57 minutes late b/c someone forgot to bring the wickets... no joke.
-Now the Fast part, that would be Florida's batting and how fast it took them to get beat NY, 12 overs only.
-Here comes the puns, (just call me the 'big pun' for the rest of this post). Florida provided an ample amount of "Thunder", crushing numerous fours and adding a a few sixeroos (is that even a word?). One six in particluar crackled past the seating level into the food stand area (you get it, crackled b/c of thunder??)
-had to throw in a aussie word as the stadium announcer was aussie, as well a Colin Miller, a bowler on FLA who did quit well. His new nickname, and pun#2, Thunder From Down Under.
-ok, back to the game, NY is really really bad. Their batting was mediocre, and their running seemed to be coached by a blind man. countless times they were run out for miscommunications.
-the crowd- not bad, louder than last game and slightly more as well. 500 is my guess. they also seemed a bit drunker (what else was everyone suppose to do besides drink for a 55 minute game delay)
-my camera didn't work too good last night, it had a hard time focusing; much like NY's strategy throughout the game.
-will i go to more games to watch my local NY storm? well first maybe they should switch their name from Storm to something like the "NY light summer breeze". Sure, i will problably go again, but after watching NY play twice, it seems like they will be the Gold Coast Seagulls (defunct team of NRL) of the League- people show up to watch the other teams do good.
-still no announcement on the new tv network's launch.
-final thought- not a bad time, got to see some cricket in a stadium in NYC, which could never be a bad thing. a good experience overall, i hope people will give this league a chance. thats my 10th thought, i am All OUT!!! (jeez, how cheezy!)
