Smiff said...: Those do look like numbers...what on earth could they mean? Is it some sort of code? I am perplexed.; July 14, 2007 at 1:15 PM
Fungster said...: Well, O=Overs, where an over is a set of six bowls (pitches in Baseball speak) - a guy bowls 6 balls from one end and then they switch to the other end and another guy (can't be the same as the first) bowls another 6. M=Maiden, an over in which no runs are scored. R=Runs allowed. W=Wickets, or the number of guys he got out. So this guy accounted for 12 of the 20 outs in the two innings that Bangladesh batted for.; July 14, 2007 at 4:47 PM
Sarge said...: Does this mean he won or lost?; July 14, 2007 at 6:25 PM
Fungster said...: LOL! His team won, but no bowler gets the win. He did have the best numbers, so I guess you can say he got the win. This guy, on the other hand, would take the loss for Bangladesh:

Bowler O M R W
Mortaza 24.0 2 125 0; July 14, 2007 at 6:38 PM
Smiff said...: I'm more confused than i was before.

I like baseball where you get a final score like 4-2. That i can follow.; July 14, 2007 at 7:50 PM

A lotta people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a buncha unconnected incidences and things. They don't realize that there's this like lattice of coincidence that lays on top of everything. I'll give ya an example, show ya what I mean. Suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly somebody will say like, "plate" -- or "shrimp" -- or "plate of shrimp" -- out of the blue, no explanation. No point looking for one either. It's all part of a cosmic unconsciousness.

"You know the way everybody's into weirdness right now? Books in all the supermarkets about Bermuda Triangles, UFOs, how the Mayans invented television, that kind of thing? Well the way I see it it's exactly the same. There ain't no difference between a flying saucer and a time machine.... People get so hung up on specifics, they miss out on seeing the whole thing. Take South America for example. In South America, thousands of people go missing every year. Nobody knows where they go. They just like disappear. But if you think about it for a minute, you realize something: there had to be a time when there was no people right? Well, where did all these people come from? Hmm? I'll tell you where: the future. Where did all these people disappear to: hmmm? the past. How did they get there? Flying saucers, which are really... yeah, you got it! Time machines!"
