4:41PM Jess McGuire | Honestly, what’s the world coming to when an Australian cricketer can’t fling some profanity laced insults at the opposition without getting in trouble for it?
Andrew Symonds has been charged by cricket authorities for a radio rant in which he described a Kiwi cricketer as a ‘lump of s—’.
The controversial all rounder was charged with a Code of Conduct breach following a rambling and alcohol-fuelled radio interview in which he labelled New Zealand batsman Brendon McCullum “”a lump of s–t.”
While it was stupid of Symonds to appear on the radio while inebriated*, we should take a look at Brendan McCullum and see if Symonds had a point when he called him “a lump of shit”.
Hmmmm… not lumpy, not made of shit. You lied to us, Andrew Symonds!
*This is experience talking.

Streaker Says “Getting Pounced Upon By Andrew Symonds Was Just Like Playing Footy, Except Even More Homoerotic!”
2:11PM Jess McGuire | We are pleased to hear that the bloke who streaked during a cricket match last night at the Gabba has no regrets about the incident.
A streaker knocked to the ground by an Andrew Symonds shoulder charge at the Gabba last night said today he wasn’t sorry for his actions – because “you only live once”. Robert Murray David Ogilvie, 26, of Park Ridge South, today pleaded guilty in Brisbane Magistrates Court to one count each of interfering with a person engaged in sport and wilful obscene exposure.
Is there actually a law against “interfering with a person engaged in sport”? We had no idea!
He said he would not make an official complaint about Symonds’ shoulder charge, which knocked him off his feet during the 10th over of Australia’s innings in their one-day final loss to India.
“It was just like playing football, really,” the underground miner, who earns $4000 per month, quipped when asked what it felt like when he was knocked to the ground by the big Queensland all-rounder.
“Underground miner” presumably not being a euphemism for something far more naughty. More »
