You got served.

Mr. Gayle as proffesional as it was, fulfilling your IPL obligations and being available for the West Indies vs England test, you only arrived for the series the day before it began. It was only when you mouthed off at England captain Andrew Strauss about his performance in other formats of the game that i thought you may be in over your head. And indeed your team was humbled in one of the most one sided matches since Bangladesh entered the test arena in 2000.


Oh well, good luck with the One-day series. South Africans will no doubt be watching the conclusion of the IPL and Penultimate weekend of Super 14. But all in all i think American Idol stole the show this week. Even in pubs on Saturday afternoon I have no doubt men will unashamedly discuss the epic saga that was AMERICAN IDOL. Sadly it showed the world how a series should be made, and that maybe the show should be left to them alone, as everyone else is simply taking from it.

I feel similarly about Earl Rose who, as i suspected, was selected for the SA Training squad named to face Namibian Invitation XV. He should not only be stopped from playing rugby before he single handedly leads to Lions Super 15 relegation but he should be prosecuted for crimes against our beloved past-time. Anyway, Bulls by 10, Canes by 8.
