Cricket's a game of skill, fast bowling, swing bowling, spin bowling, opening batsman - all rounders, different pitches, weather conditions, great craic in the crowd all day, great banter specially with the aussies.. whats not to like. eg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgwsaUnZa8g
Those "slaves" carrying the bags get paid more in day than I do in a year. Golf and F1 are in my opinion 2 of the most exciting sports to watch. Like everything if you have an interest in something it can be exciting

golf is a good game to play but not much fun to watch and even worse if you are at the course. F1 on the other hand is just a fantastic spectator sport and if you're lucky enough to go to the races it's even better. I've been to the british GP 6 out of the last 10 years and to monaco and spain twice each. Granted all the GP trips were with work so I was spoiled by clients the whole way which probably made it better but just the noise and speed of the cars is quite remarkable.

Strangers are friends I have yet to meet.
Got to love Kimi Raikkonen. Here are a few of his quotes,
The helmet has a special meaning for many drivers. How important is it to you? - It protects my head.
Kimi, who was on the phone that Jean Todt gave you? - I think it was Michael (Schumacher), but the line was pretty bad so I couldn’t hear him.
Martin Brundle: “Kimi Raikkonen doesn’t seem interested in the proceedings going on up there. Kimi, you missed the presentation by Pele.”
Kimi (nonchalantly): “Yeah.”
Martin: ”Will you get over it?”
Kimi: “Yeah. I was having a shit.”
Martin: “OK, thanks for that! Obviously you’ll have a nice light car on the grid, then.”
Well, in summer there's fishing and fucking. And in winter... the fishing is bad.
How often do you have Finland on your mind when you are abroads and racing?-Mainly when I hear the national song after a victory. In other situations during the weekend I wont spend time thinking that I'm from Finland. Not that I would in general think much about my home country anyway.
Do you have any special rituals when the helmet is concerned like many have? - I wipe it so that I can see better.
Driving is the only thing I love about f1.
Do you think that the speed is good at this point? - It doesn’t matter how much behind the others we are at this point. The car will anyway be rebuilt before Australia. Now we just drive around.
