The name Gary is not often seen in the cricketing world, but when they are seen they make an impact.

So in CMS style, who is your favourite Gary?

Your morality is bizarre. You wish physical pain on a person who, at worst, misled a sports team you support and rejoiced in him being injured, yet you claim favouritism for a disgusting, perverted criminal who made the lives of many children a misery, for his sexual gratification. Because you like a song. Stunning.

Indeed.... I was still in shock from your pithy response considering the hypocracy of the statement.

I seem to remember recently I read that on the "Favourite Harris" thread, which precluded this one, you mentioned your favourite Harris as being Rolf..... a man currently(and at the time) on bail facing quite a list of sexual charges for his own perversions with children

A bit inaccurate there. I will admit that the Harris situation has gotten decidedly worse (by appearances) than when I posted that. At the time, the rumour going around was that he had "inappropriately touched a girl on the bottom", not the "quite a list". The subsequent second arrest certainly has made things look worse, and in the wake of this, I do regret posting about him.

However, there aren't even (official) allegations yet, he hasn't even been named (although I am not saying he isn't "Yew 5" or whatever codeword the cops have given him). Unlike the trail of filth and depravity that has been Gadd's life. Surprising that someone as intelligent as you has tied the two together.

And I am suprised someone as intelligent as yourself has taken such a throw away remark made in jest to heart. Sorry but its obviously a cultural thing... Scandinavians have a tremendously dark sense of humour. You seem desperate in your response for this to turn into an argument
