Re: Ignorant American question about European sports...
That should be cricket.
Do not call it an european game.
It's english. Only them play it, with a few countries from the commonwealth.

Re: Ignorant American question about European sports...
I thought hurling (besides what Slick's comment) was that big stone on ice with all the brooms, haha, see what kind of things people thought up during the middle ages  |
