Cricket is a bizarre and perplexing game. When I was in high school, my BIL got a fellowship at Guys Hospital in London (my oldest nephew was actually born in London), so my BIL and sister moved to London for a year. I lived with them that summer. There would be cricket matches on TV and we never DID figure out what in the hell was going on in the game. Never understood it at all.
Whereas I've attended football games regularly since I was born. I was laughing one day that we indoctrinate kids early into the culture of college football fandom. Even my 10 year old NEICE cannot escape as I was noticing last year that it was my sister and myself teaching her about what was going on in the game so that she'd understand.
Football is almost in a Southerner's blood. Baseball? Not so much.
