Ah - I think you are taking the p!ss, Mr Gribble - I agree totally with what PorkPie had to
say... and I do not give a toss for watching nor viewing for any game involving a ball.

RodW should care - the media tends to focus on the glamour (Williams sisters,
Brownlow Medal), the viewing spectacle (crowds at the ANZ stadium), the potential for
danger (Jessica Watson), or looking zippy (why has Casey Stoner fallen behind?, the 2
blokes who took kite-surfed across Bass Strait (on the same day Ms Watson was
knocked down)).
RodW should care - Andrew Lock's achievements hint at what can be done with a sole
effort in the natural world, instead of thinking that one must partake in a team effort only
on a constructed surface, ie., cricket at school, peloton laps around Centennial Park.
