Take a look at these supposed professional circular ring players.

You can plainly see the "hoopmaster" has an unorthodox spin on his opening toss. The ref should have faulted the roll but seemed to have his eye on the "lap man" behind the forfeit gate. This team will NEVER make the Nationals.

Cricket anyone?

This sport is nothing like cricket...

It's much more logical and easy to understand and has a lot more action....

English Sport? ? ? This seems to me to be a clear rip-off of the traditional American game of Calvinball.
