Well, the Aussies beat the English in the 2nd match with a tremendous come from behind finish. I guess after 5 days of play, the only part of the game worth paying attention to was the last 3 hours. This proves to me that Abner Doubleday had it right, a good ball game should be no longer than that.

Anyways, the prospect that England can rally is dismal. The matches in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney are going to be more difficult than the first two for them, and I expect the Aussies will send them home broken hearted and forlorn.

These Aussies haven't seen any of the Blue Collar Comedy routine yet. I am going home to grab up all my cds and bring them back. They ought to get a hoot out of redneck humor I reckon, he he he...
