Posted by znufrii Jul 23 '09, 14:01

Yes.

Responses:

haven't for years, but I'm sure I could again. -- nm - b. Jul 23, 14:23
Absolutely. (nm) - musubi Jul 23, 14:12
Yes, and I have the most excellent system. I should scan a scoresheet. -- nm - mara Jul 23, 14:11
Sure. But I don't understand Holds. : ) -- nm - Diva Jul 23, 14:06 12
- that's the important part -- nm - Jerry Seinfeld Jul 23, 14:11
- They're like saves for those people who aren't good enough to see the 9th inning. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:07 10
  - And should be wholly and fully rejected as a fantasy stat. -- nm - TFox Jul 23, 14:08 9
    - - "fantasy". (nm) - musubi Jul 23, 14:13
    - Without question. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:09 7
      - Case in point yesterday. Hughes comes in to pitch the 8th with a 6-2 lead. He goes strong. - Diva Jul 23, 14:15 6
        
        Hughes came in when it was 5-2, so it was a save situation. Bruney came in with it 6-2, so it's not a save situation. - musubi Jul 23, 14:21 1
        
        Oh - I had that score wrong. Okay, that helps. -- nm - Diva Jul 23, 14:25
        
        Cuz Hughes didn't put them in a position to lose when there was a save situation forming. - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:17 3
        
        See my above post. (nm) - musubi Jul 23, 14:21
        
        Does that mean that if Bruney hadn't given up the HRs and the score remained 6-2, no one would have been credited a Hold? -- nm - Diva Jul 23, 14:18 1
        
        I think so, and rivera wouldn't have gotten a save. - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:20

no - but one day there will be lots of questions about cricket, and that will be my time to shine -- nm - Roger More Jul 23, 14:05 32
- Are you Chauncey St. John? If the answer is no, you're useless to me. -- nm - David Jul 23, 14:11
- my question is - who invented a damn game that can take *days* to play?? -- nm - Andie Jul 23, 14:09 4
  - someone who really likes Pimms? -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:12 1
    - and tea. -- nm - Reagen Jul 23, 14:12
  - [deleted]
  - Yeah! Seriously? It ends in days? You can play our game forever! -- nm - Blizzard Jul 23, 14:10
- first among them: Why would people play cricket? - Reagen Jul 23, 14:06 23
  - I have a soft spot for any sport that you can play while outside and drunk -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 14:12 4
    - like I said ... Pimms. -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:14 1
      - Isn't that a drink? Huh? -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 14:17
    - [deleted] 1
      - I found out one of my favorite bars has beer pong tables. I will try it one day. -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 14:16
  - I have a theory that cricket is an elaborate hoax to confuse Americans. -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:10 3
    - The first international cricket game was played between the US and Canada -- nm - Roger More Jul 23, 14:14 2
      - says *you*. -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:15 1
        
        says me *and* history :P -- (link) - Roger More Jul 23, 14:16
  - because why go to all that effort walking out to the middle of the field if you're just going to head back after a couple of pitches? -- nm - Roger More Jul 23, 14:09
  - [deleted] 8
    - it's more like baseball with more running back and forth. -- nm - Andie Jul 23, 14:09 4
      - but they wear whites. -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:11 3
        
        Unelss its Twenty20, which is an abomination. -- nm - znufrii Jul 23, 14:12 2
        
        as usual, you are wrong -- nm - Roger More Jul 23, 14:14
        
        yeah, about my hoax theory... -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:12
    - that would be field hockey. -- nm - Reagen Jul 23, 14:07
    - Lacrosse? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:07 1
      - or hurling -- nm - znufrii Jul 23, 14:10
  - how do you score? - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:06 3
    - Basically, however many times you run between the wickets (sticks) if your score - Roger More Jul 23, 14:08 2
      - Okay....why does the field go all around the player? And how do you make outs? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:09 1
        
        because there are no foul balls - once the batsman hits the ball, it can go in any direction - Roger More Jul 23, 14:13
- What exactly does the crumpet do? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:05 1
  - She brings out the tea -- nm - Roger More Jul 23, 14:06
I think B2 demostrates that I haven't a clue. - TWuG Jul 23, 14:03
Yes, if I don't fall asleep -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 14:03
i do most of it for our games. -- nm - Andie Jul 23, 14:02 4
- *combs hair* Diva's out; you're in. -- nm - David Jul 23, 14:03 3
  - David...Dave...Dave...David. - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:05 2
    - When Kim finds out I've been teleporting to Canada, there's gonna be trouble. - David Jul 23, 14:08 1
      - Plus, I'm sure she'd be pissed that you've been holding on her for vacations. - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:10
I have scored an entire weekend. - David Jul 23, 14:02
haven't the foggiest. -- nm - loosilu Jul 23, 14:02
Pretty well. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 23, 14:02
I can show you a couple of notebooks full. -- nm - nubby (Buehrle!!!) Jul 23, 14:02 1
- relax, all you need is a pencil and one sheet of paper -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 14:03
