Utterly wrong and inappropriate compared to a genuine comic. That version's actually incredibly funny for one thing.

Depending on the drop, could've been either deep cover point or backward short leg.

Elissimpark posted:Depending on the drop, could've been either deep cover point or backward short leg. More like silly mid wicket to me. I love the Silly positions in cricket, which mid wicket isn't one of, because it just means standing exactly where you're going to get smashed in the face by a cricket ball at 100mph. And people just thought, well that's silly. Aramoro has a new favorite as of 10:45 on Mar 11, 2024 |

Cricket seems much more incomprehensible, but that's probably just because it's had almost no cultural impact outside of the core area where it's played, unlike baseball. I read the BBC news site sometimes, occasionally there'll be an article about cricket, and half the words read like they were made up on the spot

mobby_6kl posted:It's also bad Maybe you mean baseball in general but if not, the alternative is worse. Playing that kind of packed schedule but going to a different city each day would be terrible for the teams.

Last time I checked, "the core area" where cricket is played has more people than the earth!!! (Or close.)

Cricket, like baseball, is entertaining in part because it can lead to moments when a hard spherical object slams into a player's crotch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HHQTSOf36Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vaOXPFDAN4

No one outside of the red countries gives a single poo poo about cricket. Yes, the Indian subcontinent has fifty billion people, but still. I guess the same is true with baseball, it's basically the US, Japan, Venezuela, and uh...the Dominican Republic? But through American pop culture, I still more or less know how it's played, as a kid we would even play a simplified version of it from time to time.
