You poor bastards.
It’s right behind you, it’s smiling, it’s wearing a suit, and it tears up contracts like you or I rub one out.
They call it a cricket official.
We call them Administracrats.
Billy Walsh calls them suits.
They are the fuckers who get off on power while making people with talent lick every last drop of sweat off their small tightly bunched testicles.
And Ricky Ponting and Tim Neilsen just got the worst news you can get in professional sport, an official defending them to the media.
It’s sport speak for, you guys better win or you are out on your asses.
The great machine has already started their next wave.
There is a private investigator going through Simon Katich’s trash as we speak.
James Sutherland has already promised to make the Australian cricket team Christian for Tom Moody.
Lawyers are already amending Clarke’s contract from FAC, to FACE.
Publicists are prepping old cricketers with pre prepared statements of how they always thought Katich would be better.
An editor is preparing footage of Ricky winning the toss and bowling, bringing on White & Hussey, and his stroppy jumps of disappointment in Perth as we speak.
That is how this works.
Ofcourse I could be reading too much into Mr Sutherland’s nice comments, and Tim’s sudden contract extension, and everything is fine.
Dandy even, no wins in 6 matches, and Tim gets more money, and Ricky gets CA’s number one douche bag in his corner.
It all makes perfect sense.

Excluding new minnows from our last 6 matches?The writing’s on the wall, win in Melbourne or it’s time to be re-acquainted with the Sheffield Shield. Selectors should be on notice too, that’s gone downhill bigtime ever since AB got in with the wrong beer mob.They could have supported Nielsen without renewing his contract till 2011 though, just sounds more expensive when they finally realise the futility of keeping him on..
Ofcourse. I said it the first time, and no one said anything, so i thought i’d try it again.
If you’re excluding the new minnows (NZ, WI), shouldn’t it be 7 matches – SA at Perth, India 4 matches in India, India at Perth and Adelaide?
and by no-one I take it you pretty much mean Leg Break :)Good quote from Nielsen today“It’s a different game to what it was in 1980 or even 1990 when I played.Trying to re-enforce that he once played the game…
what…nielsen actually played?!
Bring Simmo back as coach! Maybe he’s a bit too old but Krab would like it.
Do the Selectors have Christmas Lunch with the players? Will Watson sit between Haydos and Roy just to piss them off? Will anyone be brave enough to put a photo of young Hughes on the Haydos place mat?Ahhhh Christmas ! Gotta love it
Apples, I do like the idea of themed placemats, one with katich on it for punter, one with moody on it for neilsen, and one with tony dodemaide for James Sutherland.
Methinks Ricky has tapes of all them Admnistracrats having an orgy with a bastard-monkey. There simply is no other explanation.
Watch it Moses.BTW, loved the way the Christian Cockroach Racial Vilification bully guy came out today and said he was going to get runs v SA becuase it was real test cricket. Nice way of worming out of the shame of a golden duck I guess.Still; didn’t work
