Cricket's racist? Well, I guess that pushes my Dad over from being 'Well-meaning but occasionally says something embarrassing about race or has the odd reactionary moment' to 'Colonialist race warrior goosestepping to the tune of a Skrewdriver cover of Rule Britannia'.

Next from Tyler Perry: Them Next Door!

And just look at all the trouble the BBC's getting for its 70s-looseness now.

Mild, veiled scorn being our chief export, of course.

They're Catholic priests?

Same here, I saw the headline and wondered who it'd be and burst out laughing when a picture of Robson and sodding Jerome came up. That took me back, and not in an especially good way.

Yeahhhhhh. Sadly though, I suspect the fact that football seems to have only really gotten a following in the USA in the last few years means that most people around here will know us as 'that team that broke all the records for awfulness a few years back' and not for our glory years.
