    Find some people in your street that play Cricket. thats the way to play. at least thats how I learned... well kinda.

    I played Cricket with my cousins, neighbors, and friends but our house had it's OWN Cricket pitch. So they all came over and played at my house. Ahh, the good times.

    If I have time for college, work, and games, you can make time for school and games. It helps that it's a tech school so only ~4 hrs of class a day.

    Boozer might be getting worked up, but he's right

    I can balance good grades with playing (both meanings :p)

    @harvrdguy

    I'm not getting worked up. Just lamenting on my situation.

    Also, Rich doesn't actually know much about cricket. He is just repeating what we way.

    So, back on topic...

    I'm still addicted to Star Wars Battlefront after 4 years of playing, lol. I remember playing it on Intel Extreme Graphics 2, and it was playable with all the settings cranked LOL!!!!!!!! Now I max it with maxed AA and I still can't get enough of it! It's that good a game for me.

    And I still play Stronghold/Crusader a lot too. It's better than most new RTSs IMO. I'm a sucker for economic micro management :)

    My all time favorite RTS is Rome Total War though. It's so fun!

    Hi - yeah Rich here. It's true - I don't know anything about cricket. I watched a 9 min 56 second match that Abuzar made me watch - it was a complete pitching (or I guess I mean bowling) duel between some guy in Australia who just retired - BORRRRIIIINGGGG! Then boozer felt sorry for me, so he turned me on to a 6 minute game highlight video from a match that was more like baseball - lots of hits and some actual exciting stuff happening. THAT'S MORE LIKE IT! So I guess it is just as exciting as baseball if you know what is happening, and if you happened to have your own cricket field at your house, and grew up playing the game!! LOL!

    Boozer, why do you need time for girls - you just have to line up the pictures of the cousins and say - "I'll take that one." Isn't that how it works? That's what Shaff said. :D

    Ok boozer I'll tell you how to do it. You have to have a hook. You live in Sanford, Florida, right? Is that anywhere near the water? My point is that girls like boats. It's a natural. You say - "Hey do you want to check out my boat - maybe take a ride?" That's called a hook - get it?

    Now you might say "Rich, I'm too busy busting targets with my 357 and scaring the rednecks at the firing range to think about boating." That's when I would say - "Well, do you want to hook the girls or not?" That cool photo with the tie shows that you know how to dress to impress - so you're just lacking the hook. How much could a boat cost, $1000, $2000 - something cheap and used naturally! Better yet, form a club with about 4 more of your buddies who also like the hook idea, and go in together on the boat. Form a boat club. You guys will rule!! I know from experience. Lido Boat Club, $30/month. :p
    -Rich
