JesseP 1,265 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 A number of sportsmen and sportswomen risk their lives for our entertainment, and for their own reasons of course, and very often it is pure chance there are not more deaths like this. Very sad. Quote Link to post
likesToLick 9,768 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 "There are two teams out there, one is playing cricket. The other is making no attempt to do so." William Maldon "Bill" Woodfull, 1933. That day led to this as surely as night follows day. Attempting to bash another player in the head instead of trying to bowl him out is not sporting and not honorable. That this is permitted in the rules of the modern game deserves nothing but contempt. R.I.P. Phil Hughes. I am deeply sorry that you were killed for a public spectacle. Quote Link to post
