That's it. A draw.

[CJohn]

Flopping With Dinosaurs. FOX must not be happy with their holiday season.

[grim22]

 

That's it. A draw.

 

The Indian team put my emotions through the wringer early in the morning. Thank god we escaped with a draw.Should have trusted SA to screw it up

For some reason, they show Goodfellas every f**king Christmas in Sweden.

I wouldn't complain.............

[Omario]

Boy did SA get booed. Should have gone for it. 

[baumer]

Are we still talking football/soccer when the estimates are coming out?

I was shocked as well how they shut shop in the last 3 overs following Faf's dismissal. I am not complaining though. The stinger at the end which made the crowd really angry was Steyn hitting a six off the last ball - you could see everyone thinking "Why didn't you do that 10 balls ago"

No, we are talking about what may have possibly been one of the greatest test matches ever played in Cricket history.

yeah. Pity though would have been great win for SA, but i think they remembered they always choke so played it safe at the end. Good return from India

Cricket is a sad excuse for a sport.

You are thinking of Baseball. 

[rainbowtrout]

Leto is pretty much a lock

 

Too showy for my taste.  

 

Was this guy a real person or made up for the movie?  I know it was based on a true story and real characters but that storyline seemed as fake as a three dollar bill, imo.  Seemed like a PC character created for drama.
