Cricket, history, cricket history, yelling into the void.
Australians: this is how cricket sounds to Americans.
Watching the 4-7 Cowboys with a backup QB play the 2-9 Giants with a 3rd string QB and thinking, how could this possibly be worse?

And then the braying dipshittery of Tom Brady washes over me.

Looks like "finally making runs in the middle order of a shield side" might not be the best way to pick an opener.

Fun fact: I'm #Aboriginal - my mobs are Gamilaraay, Worimi, and Wonnarua, all in NSW.
Second fun fact: Hello in the language of my Gamilaraay ancestors is 'Yaama'.

So: Yaama Bluesky! #language

Each of my kids, one in middle school and one in high school, have friends currently on antibiotics for walking pneumonia so I'd argue it's not just central Indiana that's full of kids with potentially fatal respiratory diseases walking around everywhere
