I don't think its too early to think about forming our Zoners virtual softball team.

Order our shirts, get in some practices and be ready by spring to challenge some of the pron sites to a game.

Who's in!!!

We just have make sure we get enough people.

Last time this was tried you were both the drunken heckler and security.

You spent the whole game warning and throwing yourself out, remember?

It' a little hard to explain, perhaps this will clear it up:

American Football:Aussie Football

Baseball: Softball

Still fuzzy mate.
In NFL, they wear body armour and helmets right? :rofl2::what:
Isn't Baseball and Softball kinda like Rounders? You know, that game girls play? :what::rofl2:
I know the rules of cricket are somewhat esoteric (it means 'complicated' in a seemingly unexplainable way :D) but after a season or two (try and stay awake) you'll have the basics enough to play.
I've watched NFL. Doesn't it take four hours to play a one hour game?
Retreats to own bunker. :D
Peace.

Nick to be honest... I think yo're joking but at the same time I worried you're not. You do know softball right?


I unno guys. I hate softball. I always used it as the girly version of baseball. Than again I wasn't allowed in softball because I kept hitting it too far. Atleast in baseball they don't have those kind of limitations... :applause:

True indeed. The NFL wears body armor and helmets. This link might help explain why.

However, this does't mean that Yanks don't appreciate the difficulty of Aussie Footy. The challenges are legendary. For instance, here's a pic that any American male can relate to:

The difficulty in serving an oval volleyball during the family picnic takes years to master. And you're correct again, no body armor on this warrior.

Trev...of course I'm joking. In the interests of keeping 'on topic' (at Kilroy's?)...I'm starting a new thread where we can perhaps the finer points of both NFL and AFL...

Back on thread! :dancer01:

OK, we need an umpire. Someone thrust worthy and fair.

(glances down the members list)


We can do without an umpire for now.

Who wants to pitch?
