Yesterday really highlighted the point.

First there was cricketer Kevin Pietersen who thought he was better than the team coach - and for that matter his teammates. Rugby star Mike Tindall was done for drink driving after getting completely smashed at Cheltenham races. Then Christiano Ronaldo comically wrote of his Fezza in the tunnel at Manchester Airport. Its their pursuit of sexual dominance I guess that leads to this perceived notion of invincibility. The same with rock musicians too.

For England however Strauss is a much better choice of captain. A much less divisive figure. English cricket though is in pretty bad shape.

Nope, that just makes them sound like the general hoi polloi.

95% of the population almost certainly think they know more than their boss (and most probably do). People regularly write off cars, and people still, sadly, drink and drive.

So, what's your point exactly? As a troll, you're just not very good.

He must also have absolutely no life to come on a forum under one account, hardcore troll, get banned and then think he's clever enough that no-one will notice he's back under an alias? :laugh: the new account won't last long either I would imagine :nod:

Not half as long as his curious hang up regarding sexual explicitness; a common theme throughout his "posts".

Phwoar.
