Story Celebrity Cricket Survivor [C2007] Famous XI 6/233 off 15 (chasing 271)

no chance :D

No chance? Bin Ladens always praying to god I'm sure they'll get along fine.

This story is too much though lol I thought it was going to be pansy famous people but this I mean God, Jesus, Bill Gates lmao you definatly can't lose...is there any chance of Lucifer getting in the team?
 
LOL! this is one of the best stories i ever read bill gates ability to bribe umpires lol!
Keep it up
reps to you.
i don't think all the teams mates will be friends i mean Osama and god is going to have a clash God's probaly going to try and get a straight drive into Osama.
While everybody is going to be friends with Bill Gate
Osama won't have any trouble slotting in IMO, he's a warm and bubbly character with one failing in life - his tendency to blow people up. Other than that I can't see why people wouldn't get along with him. He doesn't mind having cameras on him either, does a lot of home video work.

Yeah Bush and Osama playing together. Bush is so stupid he wouldn't know who he is.

Great work mate. This story cracks me up :thumbs
 
9. Jeff, Right Arm Rubbish
m1091422.jpg


The purple wiggle, Jeff, has been picked based on his promise that his bowling, the “Fruit Salad bowl”, will be ‘yummy, yummy’. Although hampered by a chronic fatigue syndrome that has already been a major factor in his entertainment career, he is battling on and will try to stay awake for as many games as possible. He and Osama form a great slow bowling pair, as they are both family-friendly sort of people that parents want their kids to go to the games to see, hence this recruiting is a major coup for the ICC. Jeff is also reluctant to wear team uniform, thinking that the team should all be wearing different colour shirts so they can tell each other apart.

10. Carson Kressley, Right Handed Batsman, Wicket-Keeper

Carson is clearly a player who enjoys the experience of getting behind the batsman to take the ball in his hands. He does make occasional mistakes as a wicketkeeper due to staring at other objects in front of him instead of the ball, but his enthusiasm for the role as wicketkeeper is enough to let him keep the role. His batting is not brilliant, as emphasised by a running joke about his batting being so bad that they would prefer it if he would just bat for the other side. When this joke was first said to him he was very annoyed, and yelled a lot of abuse from his side of the fence, as he was on the other side of the fence at the time. He isn’t one to play the ball with a straight bat, in cricket or in life.

11. John Edward, Right Arm Medium Fast

John Edward McGee Jr. is a man with a gift. Unfortunately this gift is not related to cricket, but a gift in talking to those who have ‘crossed over’ from the living to the non-living population. Also unfortunately, the gift he does have is a fake. The fact he tries to pass off what he does as if he really deserves the money he gets for it is worth respecting. He slots perfectly into this team due to this ability to pretend he is good at something when really he is just another deer with no eyes. He will also be useful in that one of our players has passed away, and one of our players has had nails in his hands and not been fed for a lengthy period and probably going by that should be dead, and another several are quite close to the end also. He may be the only person in the team with the ability to talk to these people. Or so he says. John, you are an absolute clown.

That completes the lineup for the match against the West Indies, meaning that the voting lines are OPEN.

Lineup
1. Doc Emmett Brown
2. The iPod Guy
3. Jesus Christ
4. Denny Crane
5. Bill Gates
6. God
7. Freddie Mercury
8. Osama Bin Laden
9. Jeff
10. Carson Kressley
11. John Edward

Women are tricky to get in there. The other suggestions are most definitely stored in my memory bank now.

Will we be having celebrity umpires as well ?
11 celebrities a match not enough for you? ;)

Basically no celebrity umpires because I know how hard it would be to create them. Every umpire becomes a celebrity anyway.

I've finished putting all of the faces into Cricket 07, now all I need to do is get this first bug-ridden game happening.

Maybe some of the Chili's wouldn't mind a go at cricket, or Ian Thorpe. I don't know it is your choice.
 
3. Jesus Christ, Right Handed Batsman

In a number 3 batsman you need to play your big guns. They need to be experienced, talented, and an ability to perform miraculous feats to save your team from defeat. Jesus has all of these attributes. He also has a massive amount of facial hair, which is useful in protecting him from getting sunburnt as much, which is the pain of playing cricket. He plays straight through the line of the ball, as he has a thing against cross batted strokes due to past experience. He can also hit the ball hard by pretending it is Judas? head, although deep down he realises he should know better than to not forgive him.

4. Denny Crane (c), Right Handed Batsman

It?s not often that Jesus plays in a sporting team and does not have as many worshippers as a team mate, but in this case it is true. Denny Crane is one of the greatest strikers of a ball that this world has ever seen, and anyone who disagrees is a democrat or a Bush-basher. He has never been given out LBW, as whenever he sees the umpire pondering a decision, he mutters the two words ?Denny Crane? and the ponderation ceases. Realising that he is in a team among people who cannot claim to be anywhere near of the talent of their opposing players, he has supplied the whole team with guns on the off-chance that they begin to lose. ?Hell, the criminals have them! It?s not less guns that this world needs, it?s more.?
I am so following this story! Gotta go to the polling booths, I'll be back to read it all soon, but Denny Crane wins me!

OK my votes:
3. John Edward
2. Jesus (What can I say, I'm Jewish)
1. Freddie Mercury

As for my suggestion for the intruder, my vote goes to Pauline Hanson. Can you imagine how well she'd go against the subcontinent teams?

West Indies start well

Game 1 vs. West Indies @ Barbados

The Famous XI kicked off proceedings by captain Denny Crane winning the toss. Denny Crane is undefeated in all aspects of life, and the toss at the start of cricket is just another one of those aspects. Never lost, never will. With opening bowler John Edward using his extra-sensory abilities to sense a bit of movement in the pitch, Denny had no choice but to bowl first and try to skittle the West Indies.

Little did I know when starting up this game that EA Sports would try to fool me by giving me false names for the West Indies players. As these false names are all very clever plays on the English language, I will include them as if they were their real names, just for the sake of it.

The first over bowled by John Edward provided few highlights. Wavell Hendricks managed to hit two back-foot on drive boundaries, which is terribly realistic. The game looked to get interesting, though, when fellow opening bowler Jeff caught the non-striker Chris Gaist napping. Unfortunately while running in he found this napping too tempting and chose to hit the snooze himself, and the runout below did not eventuate. The West Indies were at 0/10 off 1.

Jeff?s over to redeem himself after the missed runout opportunity was not much better. He bowled a wide and a no-ball, and gave away another 6 runs off the bat. Not even our Messiah could stop the ball from racing away to the boundary off Jeff?s bowling, leaving the West Indies at 0/18 off 2.

John Edward is a man who reckons he often speaks to the dead. It?s fair to say after his second over he may as well have been talking to himself. He was hit for 16 off the over and didn?t trouble Gaist a great deal. West Indies 0/34. In the top right corner of the below image you will notice a white dot. That is actually snow. The six went over a different stand.

Jeff?s second over was not great either. 11 off it was not a great result for considering the Famous XI?s batting line-up is not a great deal better than their bowling lineup. The only positive to come out of it was that Osama bin Laden got to field a couple of balls in a row, and this inspired Denny to give Osama a go with the ball, with the total at 0/45 off 4. It also inspired Freddie Mercury to give Chris Gaist a massive staredown.

Osama?s over was nothing short of sensational, going for two of his first four balls, making an impressive run rate. Unfortunately for Ossie, he was hoisted over the boundary rope by Chris Gaist who clearly got bored. Unfortunately for Gaisty, Osama declared a Jihad on him. The over ended up going for nine runs, taking the West Indies total to 0/54 off 5 overs.
