I figured that Soccer and American Football would be split over continental lines, while cricket is stereotypically boring the world over.

But, Americans don't see enough of cricket to BE bored by it.

ACK!

Hell, I agree, but the ONLY time I've ever seen cricket, was when I was in Australia.

Easily more boring than Cricket.
Initially, I picked either curling or lawn bowling, but went with golf instead. Wasn't a bad decision.

I knew that nobody thought that W. is smart, but I thought that everybody thought that most of the people would thought that he is smart, therefore I voted for him.

Tsk tsk, it was a no-brainer... how come some people even thought of voting anyone else?

I voted for Blair (#2) because I knew many people here actually consider him smart.

I chose Blair as he is smarter than Bush and it was out of those two as to who would get the most votes.
