I love this fucking game so much. Literally no other sport can give you that. Tony Romo, eat your heart out.

Cricket commentators have lots of free time to bring up some great stories / tell jokes as well.

Here's Aussie commentator Kerry O'Keefe doing the classic Norm McDonald frog walks into a bank joke during a test match.  While he was telling the joke three or four bowls (pitches) were thrown.

Oh shit. 

 

Full ass jokes (set up and punch line. Not just inside joke shit) during game play. I might have to throw our British (and by extension the penal colony who couldn't throw off their oppressor Aussies) forefathers a bone here.

 

(I did actually lol as 1.) that was ridiculous 2.) it took forever and 3.) there was an actual game going 4.) It was funny!)

The history lesson and connections between Astros crew and hip-hop is exactly everything baseball is.

Robert Ford’’s dad played a huge role in the early nyc hip hop scene

I always told my Aussie buddies, "Oh that's right, you couldn't afford a real revolution."

If Houston doesn’t acquire a bat and doesn’t feel the need to carry a 3rd catcher, I think Singleton should be the 13th position player on the playoff roster as a lefthanded bench bat who represents a real HR threat every time he comes up.  And how dope of a storyline would it be for him to hit a game winning extra inning HR in the Series.

Well god damn I didn’t know it was like that tho.

I didn't call him a pussy, nor did I say it was his decision.

It just gets old seeing baseball be so fragile.

Do you think Nolan Ryan is coming out of the game?   Fuck no.
