I think KO summed it up well. You posted tasteless comments about Glenn McGrath skipping cricket, accusing him of exaggerating his wife's condition because he was too spineless to play. When confronted by multiple posters, it was the standard " Kipsy did it first" reply with no apology.
I am not sifting through threads over 8 months old, because one, I cant be bothered, two, I dont have the time, and three, you wouldnt apologize for those comments because you failed to even concede insensitivity when you posted them the first time

Just grow up, and get the **** over what Kipsy baits you with. You are just showing yourself up as being a prize **** wit. Kipsy does post a lot of drivel, but he does post some decent opinions as well.

"You have spent days harassing Kipsy about how the English selectors did not snub Strauss, and when he informs you ( and it is confirmed by another poster) that he has cut and paste a foxsports headline, the mind games and excuses begin
Honour does not rely on the action of others. You have made a mistake, have been caught out, and have failed to apologize , Sven. So put up or shut up."

Chucker, I have said that I withdraw the comment that I blame Kipsy for the word "snub". The equivalent of which Kipsy has not done on this occasion, and in fact has never done at all.

Secondly, What I've written is an explanation why I think the word "snub" is incorrect:

====================
Slight English lesson here, Kipsy (yes, ENGLISH, not Ausrtalian):

snub: To dismiss, turn down, or frustrate the expectations of.

Strauss was not dismissed ( he didn't have the job), not turned down (he didn't "apply" for it) and wheter he is frustrated or not is up to him.

Therefore, he was not snubbed, he simply wasn't picked.
========================= ===

3. If you really wanna talk about this, fine. I have read the article, and nowhere in that article is the word "snub" repeated. They also know it is not true, but obviously, a nice headline is worth a lot these days.

4. Let's talk about my comments about Jane McGrath. You said you wanted to talk about it, so bring it on my friend.You said that I had made constant attacks on her over the years, so please bring it out.

Perhaps you'd like to give us all the benefit of your unique perspective on this?

What - no reply?

C'mon you lilly livered Pommies - You know who you are and I know you're out there.

Not one of you (Mip excluded - but he's almost one of us anyway) has had the intestinal fortitude to make a comment on this apart from engage in a bit of ill-informed Kipsy bashing.

No wonder your country is in such a mess.
========================= ====================

My country is doing fine, thank you very much.

Back on topic:

The brain says:

1. Strauss

2. Cook

3. Graham Napier (or any other unknown cricketer for that matter)

4. KP

I guess the ECB will juggle between Strauss and KP, although I would be pleasantly surprised if they asked Cook to do the job.
========================= =================

I await your apology for this attack in due course.
+++++++++++++++++++++++=

Now if you follow that Kipsy in his normal vitriolic way had accused Sven of not replying to a challenging question. Sven showed that he already had done so
.And that's why he was hoping for an apology.
So to accuse Sven of being the miscreant here is somewhat out of order.

I dont get it???

You have spent days harassing Kipsy about how the English selectors did not snub Strauss, and when he informs you ( and it is confirmed by another poster) that he has cut and paste a foxsports headline, the mind games and excuses begin
Honour does not rely on the action of others. You have made a mistake, have been caught out, and have failed to apologize , Sven. So put up or shut up.

Chucker; Kipsy has far more apologies to make for the disinformation and lies he's posted on here over the past 30 months or so . I do feel that some guys on here need to take a more balanced view of things.
As said before , he likes to throw a hand grenade into a room , walk out, lock the door , and look on while everyone inside kicks seven bales of sh1t out of each other.
And this is exactly what he's done today.
Look, I know I'm probably the worst offender on this, but can I suggest we don't reply to any of his threads, because if there's one thing in common, it's that everyone is pretty much p1ssed of with things as they are.

Even Ponting can apologise for blunder! Reply to this message
AUSTRALIA have been warned their ugly bullying of umpires must stop immediately as embarrassed skipper Ricky Ponting door-knocked teammates to apologise for his latest disciplinary blunder.
