With an asterisk. Jerry Jones plans to break Super Bowl attendance record with standing room only tickets outside stadium with only video view of game. Or maybe it's just going to be a record for the largest outdoor sports bar?

A. People watching outside the stadium should not be considered "in attendance" at the game.
2. $800 for a 4-pack of tickets to not the game! My hat is off to you, sir.

Hey Canada. I bet you didn't know that you're in next month's Cricket World Cup.

Hey Canada. I bet you didn't know that you're in next month's Cricket World Cup.

Believe it or not, I've watched (part of) a live cricket match when I was last in Vancouver.

Plus, I started to really get into the T20 Champions League finals when it was broadcast on ESPN International (while on my Xmas cruise in the Caribbean).

I'm probably a couple more viewings away from watching an entire match and not having to look up the rules every so often.

What are you using for a reference to look up the rules?
