			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As part of the competition to win a signed copy of <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/the-year-of-the-balls-2008/">the year of the balls</a>, I am giving a copy to the best blogging entry who can explain how cricket with balls is ruining cricket.</p>
<p><a href="http://maidenbowling.blogspot.com/">Leela</a> tried hard by outing me as a feminist and <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/26/leela-talks-about-the-ladies/">champion of the female blogger</a>, good try, but she got me confused with Germaine Greer. </p>
<p><a href="http://shortofalength.wordpress.com/">Achettup</a> made a good play for the book <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/24/short-of-a-length-but-long-on-words/">by promising to send it to Neil Harvey</a> , but I cannot be bought. </p>
<p><a href="http://sachtheone.blogspot.com/">Sach</a> almost had me with <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/21/without-balls/">the Lalit bagging</a>, but the thought of me with testicles was enough to horrifying.</p>
<p><a href="http://sportsfreak.co.nz">Sportsfreak</a> try hard by mentioning the great <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/18/how-jrod-is-ruining-cricket/">poor taste Michael Slater jokes </a>(only days before he put his foot in his mouth), alas then they bagged the book’s colour.  </p>
<p><a href="http://wellpitched.com">Q</a> tries very hard by mentioning that I would lead any <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/19/12-reasons-how-or-why-cricket-with-balls-is-ruining-cricket/">future cricket based mutiny</a>, however it doubts the factual nature of my Ashes Facts. No book for Q.</p>
<p><a href="http://rising-of-the-sun.blogspot.com">Jonathan </a>talks about the<a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/26/last-but-not-least/"> actual size of the balls on the cricket</a>, which is nice, but it does lower the tone a bit. </p>
<p>
 And this winner is…..</p>

<p><a href="http://sportreview.net.nz">Sportreview.</a></p>
<p>Richard used <a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/20/tom-cruise-and-sportreview/">Sehwagology, Scientology, Tom Cruise, Boogie Nights and the Ashes urn</a> to give us a chilling dystopian vision. </p>
<p>Well done bloggers. </p>
<p>You are all winners in my eyes. </p>
<p>Only Richard gets the book though.</p>
<p>Thank you all for your entries.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you would be all aware of by now, we are running a competition to give away 3 signed copies of <a title="buy it now baby" href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/26/the-year-of-the-balls/">the year of the balls</a>.</p>
<p>I said if I got enough entries I would put a reader&#8217;s choice in, so here it is.</p>
<p>You get to choose which fan deserves the book the most from those who emailed their entries in.</p>
<p>Here is a quick run down of each entry.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/19/cameron-breaks-the-rules/">Cameron</a> breaks the word limit by about 170 words, but he gives us this beautiful one paragraph ramble about how i will ruin cricket in the future. Only you can decided if the rules should be obeyed or not.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/20/golden-showers-and-balls/">Matt</a> goes the direction of a Star Wars&#8217; Golden Shower routine, hard to say no to that image.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/21/without-balls/">Sach</a> talks about how Lalit Modi would rip my balls off, and that would end the IPL, and world cricket. Scary thought, as I love the IPL.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/21/11-reasons-why-cricket-with-balls-us-ruining-cricket/">Dhananjay </a>gives you 11 reasons why cwb is ruining cricket, one of them is Sehwagology. Evil Bastard.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/23/ben-hearts-cwb/">Ben</a> looks into the future summons the spirit of Kiki &amp; Sassy to report on the fact I have just killed Lalit Modi, probably because he took my balls in the earlier post.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/24/chriags-3-letter-words/">Chirag</a> mentions the ICL, so according to ICC regulations he should be shot, or have his nipples cut off.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/25/wg-wipes-his-ass-with-the-year-of-the-balls/">Jason</a> teaches WG Grace to use a computer, and he hates me, obviously.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/25/raj-gets-rude/">Raj</a> does more research than I did for my whole book and uses all the dirty words and phrases I have ever uttered, like &#8220;Shane Watson&#8221;.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/2009/05/26/for-shizzle/">SLA</a> gives us a lyrical entry, it has rhymes and all, including &#8220;overrated Vics; Nannes and bryce, plenty of man love. That was nice&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/wp-content/uploads//2009/05/dirkfightsback.gif">Gigi</a> gives us a cartoon, and don&#8217;t be put off by the fact Dirk has no beard or that you don&#8217;t know what the word mandibles means.</p>
<p>There they all are, so once you know your favourite, go below and vote, you have until midnight London time on Friday.</p>
<p>Exciting, isn&#8217;t it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="read em and weap" href="http://www.cricketwithballs.com/tag/book-competition/">7 entries</a> so far (8 really, but one is illegal), <a title="my milkshake brings all the girls to the yard" href="http://www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/the-year-of-the-balls-2008-a-disrespective/6899686">3 books to give out</a>.</p>
<p>Not bad odds.</p>
<p>And who doesn&#8217;t want a free copy of a book with the authors signature and some smutty comment.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t sent in your 200 words or less on <strong>how cricket with balls is ruining cricket</strong>, you have until the 25th of may at midnight Greenwich Mean Time to send them in.</p>
<p>If I get at least another 7 more, I will allow you the readers to vote on who one of the books should go to.</p>
<p>Another one of the books will go to the &#8216;best of the blogs&#8217; entry.</p>
<p>And the third one will go to whoever I decide to give it to.</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t have to be a massively wordy, it can be one line, a photo shopped picture, or a haiku poem written in the style of Bill Lawry.</p>
<p>Send them in to <strong>cwb@cricketwithballs.com.</strong></p>
