Cos it is a real poofy sport invented by the English to fill in the time between the end of the football season and the start of another.

i think he has the two fan bases mixed up,
here is why Cricket is a manly(hetro sport):
-Ball weighs 5.5ounces compared to baseball which weighs 5 ounces.
-Ball travels at around 85-95 mph in cricket, compared to 90-100 mph in baseball(btw they chuck or bend their elbows in baseball when they pitch which gives them added pace).
-Cricket finesse, endurance and fit physique is required, baseball is 'fatmans' sport, here are couple of pics:

-Bare handed catching in Cricket, compared to those oven mits these baseball players wear , funny thing is when they make such a HUGE deal about those soft barehanded catches their players make , David Wrights bloop catch .. lmao, i have taken harder catches than that, broke my finger once too.. )
- Cricket allows bowlers to bowl or throw directly at the batsmen, no where to run, head to toe is all fair game.
where in baseball even if a batter is slightly grazed he gets a free walk ( also its a chicken sport too.. if the pitcher or manager is too scared to pitch to batter they can give him a FREE pass, try doing that in cricket).

Till today, there is NO research done on Cricket playing individuals and their sexual orientation. There is no connection between the two .

Cricket is a game and whether homosexual or heterosexual doesn't make a difference if you love the game or play.
