Greetings from Australia mates!
As some of our beloved readers know, I am currently in the middle of my semester studying abroad in Wollongong, Australia. The transition to Aussie life has been quite smooth – there aren’t too many big differences between our cultures. I have submerged myself into their beach lifestyle, have gotten into some Aussie music, and have even picked up on some of their lingo.
But one aspect of Australian life I have had trouble adjusting to goes against the very core of which I stand – sports.
Although I do enjoy me some footie (rugby), I must say that I have a major distaste for cricket. Cricket may be the national sport of Australia, but I just find it to be a more illogical, boring version of baseball.
And seeing how I used to be the manager of the greatest baseball team ever assembled, I think I know a thing or two about baseball.
