Fair enough, my incorrect assumption was that the zero coverage in this country was largely equated across the rest of the world. I didn't realise that it was actually quite popular, thats surprising. I'm still not having it that its a more skilful sport than cricket though, but maybe we're...

That's a silly analogy - you've gone to a ridiculous end of a spectrum to try to make an irrelevant point. Running along with a ball gripped in your hand before chucking it towards a goal is INFINITELY easier than trying to dribble along with a ball at your feet before shooting. The ball is...

Thats so tragic. Tragic. However, ESPN2 still has the Baltic Tractor-Pull Championship rally next month live from Latvia. Gustav Bollockov is defending his European title in his all-conquering Skoda MV12, but expect to see a strong challenge from Yuri Sukmekokubic in his suped-up 12 cylinder...

:lolol: Dang. And there I was, wasting my evening watching an epic game between the Packers and the Buccaneers to decide who goes to the Superbowl. I've gotta get me this handball channel. I'm clearly missing out! Do I get netball and monster trucks with it ?

:lolol: OK champ. Suit you up, give you a bat, and put you in front of Jimmy Anderson for an over ? Or stick you in goal for a game of "handball", and lets see what you'd think is tougher after that. Actually, I know what you'd think, but what you'd openly admit to is an entirely different...

Dodging around a sports centre fuzzing an undersized kiddy's football around ? Wow. If you genuinely believe that handball is a more skilful sport than cricket - where you're dealing with a small, hard 5.5oz ball being bowled at 90mph+ with spin, taking into account (in an instant) the...

Hmm...are you seriously suggesting that handball is a more skilful sport than cricket ? Really ?? Anyhoo, England are 'reasonably good' at plenty of sports other than cricket. Not necessarily always worldbeating, but certainly decent. Off the top of my head, football, rugby union, cycling. We...

Indeed, if people enjoy it then go for gold. But in terms of sports, its possibly the LEAST skilful one on the planet. Shelling peas looks more challenging. How on earth anyone can actually sit down and watch this dreck is quite beyond me.

Mmmnah. Not even close. Its just not difficult enough. Jumping up in the air holding a ball in your hand and chucking it into the net, vs an overhead bicycle kick volley ? DO behave.

I'm a middle aged man with a paunch, so i'm not saying that I personally would cream it with the pro's. But I'm sorry, for sport to have any value, it at least has to LOOK difficult to score. And hurling a mini-football into a net is a piece of piss for anyone. Scoring a goal with a volley...

Any sport where it is THAT piss-easy to score is utter gubbins, imo. No craft or guile to it, just run up the court and FUZZ it in. Yawn. Its even worse than basketball, and thats saying something.
