Uber Sri Lankan Keepers

[Joao_Quinto]

I did a quick search and couldn't find an old thread about this.

Did anyone ever come across those keepers in ICC 2 that started appearing after a few seasons. The ones that had like 300 batting averages and could only be run out.

Has anyone played as SL and got them? I was about ten seasons into the game and SL had about 7 of them and a couple didn't even play. Can you imagine bradman x 3 not being picked?

I got one that hadn't played FC as an international in a county game and it was rediculusly easy to win every game. You open him put him on full aggression and he scores...well a lot of runs. He broke the county's season run record that was set in a 36 games season or what ever it was in the 'old' days by about 1000 runs and missed 5 or 6 games through injury. I couldn't afford to resign him the year after. His wage went from 20k to 20kkk.

Anyways, I want them back, but Australian this time.

Err, no, it's a worldwide phrase, just not a common one.
More used in America and Germany I thought - there is a radio show on my station called Uber Mainstream, although that's the only reference to Uber I've heard.

PS. I found it in an American dictionary.

It's basically German for over in the context of over good or over the top...

 

[bryce]

oh ok, i'm sick of it already.....

Just found out that it is also a phrase used by indy/punk kind of youths iin Melbourne to describe something good.
