Part of the reason I started on this ridiculous question-answering thing is because I felt like I was in a rut.
Writing is like batting or cleaning your teeth; some times you do it better than others.
I thought the question thing might help.
And the weirdest thing has happened, I found out that not only do I like Simon Katich now; I find his whole story inspiring.
I was just answering this question, and then I looked at my answer; it shocked me.
I found Katich inspiring? Me?
The man who started calling him the Krab.
Looking at what Katich has done makes it hard to not admire him.
He has overcome being Western Australian, having Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, his technique, came back from oblivion and choking a golden child to become the most consistent test player Australia has at the moment.
Based on all that he does inspire me.
Therein lies the problem.
I enjoyed not knowing I like him.
It was something I had was holding onto and enjoying.
George Lucas never really got life, hate doesn’t lead to the dark side, it leads to a healthy life.
When Katich could be mercilessly bagged I was a happy man, now I might feel guilty and stop instead.
This question thing is to blame, so I won’t be answering any more questions, somethings are better off unknown.
From now on I will push through my bad writing form like the krab does when at the crease.
On the contrary, I must thank you for the cricket multiplayer game shared on your webpage. It’s quite a lot of fun when you want to switch off for a bit!
cb
he needs to bowl his left arms wristies a bit more, after all, he is the best wristie in the country.
and women are playing with themselves whilst looking at him in the Men Of Cricket calendar
Pete, dude, speak for yourself. I’d only give him about a 7, maybe 7.5.

That was my question, and I’d apologise for making you having this existential confusion if I was grinning like a, well, kat. C’mon, you gotta respect the guy!
Not like Katich!
He is the only one in the team I DO like.
Well, apart from a slight hankering after MJ in his previous incarnation of world-beating cricketing superhero. Not this ‘even Clint McKay is better than me’ version.
And he should bowl more as he is actually good to watch bowl.
He is far more likeable than the rest of them put together. Plus anyone who has tried to throttle Michael Clarke obviously cares more about the good of Australian cricket than their own public persona.
Damn, I was just thinking up wierrd questionns to ask u.
Well, it could have been more ruinous, as you may have imprudently let slip in one of your more distrait moods that you find Shane Watson’s revival very arousing.
Good one, Lou, couldn’t agree more. But I do like most of them, Kat’s just one of the coolest!
Unrelated to this post.
Who is john botha’s God father?. Why he is even in SA team?. Atleast vendermerve is a cunning bowler who can spin.
Why SA guys keep picking botha as though he is some sort of wonder. I see nothing in him.
He even captains sometimes. This is crazy.
Dump Botha!.
Alex, the name is revered in white SA.
Talentless people get a job. EX: L Siva. It always happens in india.
How come this talentless dude johan Botha spood fed the spot in SA team?.
Did Mickey arthur owe money to johan Botha’s father or his father is some kind of mafia crime boss?. :D
They mould him into a throwing spinner like he was next best thing. Something really fishy here.
Do not know why he is in the Team.
He can’t bat , he can’t field either and he throws!.
Alex – I believe he did all right last summer in SA, not sure. But agree, don’t rate him at all. People over here seem to love him though.
‘Without wanting to take a 2020 game seriously, it is good for Australia every time an aboriginal represents Australia.’
You are a fucking idiot on so many levels.
Cam, sorry, did i miss the memo, is it bad now? Should a sport with 3 aboriginals in the last 150 years not rejoice when one plays.

Seriously you are refering to this guy right?:

Cam, Do you only like them dark? If the dude refers to himself as aboriginal and captains aboriginal cricket sides, that is enough for me, whether he looks like Barry Cable or Mandawuy Yunupingu.
Unless you’re a jackass. Cam, are you a jackass? Sorry, that may have been too general a term. Are you a bigoted jackass?

Jrod, I always love it when someone doesn’t “get” you LOL
Captain Kat did indeed get over being west australian, and living in Derbyshire – two little follies I am still working on. I am also still working on forgiving Captain Kat for getting over being a west australian (but not for leaving Derbyshire, he was way too good for that lot) …

On the contrary , I love the fugly Krab. And not only because my quote on him made it in to your first ok.
Let me repeat “He is ugly as fuck, but he gets the job done”
Long live the fugly Krab.
