Haha that's quite sad, since India OWNS Paki. Dan, You're the first "Guy from Australia" I know that doesn't like cricket, that's cool. And well, I am a Texan, the cold isn't the norm. Though it's like 30 degrees right now (more like 45, but whatever..).
30 Fahrenheit is like 0 for Celsius. I just went outside and checked, and by the way, I guess I'm the medium between you guys. 28 ish degrees baby. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Right now it's -10 degrees Celcius here.</div> Thats just plain sick.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Locke:</div><div class="quote_post">Boo. Why are you so scared of the cold? I hate it but I can stand it. at the cricket thing. I have Paki friends who buy a cricket game on Pay Per View and stay up from 12 to 6 just to watch Pakistan against India.</div> I'm freezin my balls off outside and i'm in l.a..so i would rather stay away from the snow. I admit snow makes nice scenery but that's what pictures are for. So your paki friend must cook a lot of curry to keep it warm; how does he stand the cold if he's from a hot country?

I guess you just get used to it after a while.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I just played a snow football game, I think I cracked my friend's ribs... I feel sorta bad.</div> Thats okay, if he can walk, he's fine. I actually gave someone a clotheshanger playing football. Yeah, after that everyone were scared of me.
Haha, thats nothing. Cracked ribs #1 occured when I hit him in the air and flipped him over completely in the air. Cracked ribs #2 occured when I connected solidly with shoulder into his chest, the hit was so hard he bounced back completely (like getting shot by a shotgun). It was one of those "I'm sorta hurt, but I'm gonna pop up and hope it doesn't" shots, he was on the ground a few seconds later. Concussion #1 was when this guy was trying to break a tackle, and since he didn't play organized football he didn't know that putting your head down with a defender incoming is a bad idea. I knocked him out and he doesn't remember much about what happened. Concussion #2 happened when I was blocking for a teammate, I threw a would-be tackler into his teammate, and ended up giving his teammate a concussion. I've knocked the wind out of people several times, make them think twice about going deep. I played line for our football team so I'm not the fastest of guys, but I'm one of the more intimidating players on the field since they realize I have no regard for my body nor theirs. There is nothing better than playing free safety in a pickup football game. People have started dropping to the ground before I can make it hit now, or calling themselves down. Its a little disappointing for me and their docs.
