There is no such thing as professional sport these days. It's just about money, sport doesn't come into it, no matter the type of game.
yes its about the money the england bloke who runs it all basically said sky pay for it and without them it would not work
This is my current screen saver. You must forgive me, but I have been waiting 40 years for this moment.
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!
It's a bit like American Football. Nothing happens for ages then everybody goes bonkers. Then you look at it on the telly thing and then you get the lawyers in. You could try French Cricket if you've got a tennis ball and a stick ( not a baguette).
