with due respect

can we wait until we win the ashes before we start shouting too loud?

and it's a sport after all. ok, entertainment wise it might register as important just like football does for most of us, but in the end to say sport is important you must compare it with other arts like music or visual art, paintings etc. and no i know you et al are not putting other elements of the "art" society as demons neither dismissing them, but i think in general, it's a game, and that's all it is. and in the long run it has no relevance other than a 10 second orgasm feel good factor than any other sport.

that's why sport exists, that's why football exists, but for some people to raise these game players to a mantle of godliness is vile.
