Not 'we', Aussie - those who run the various shows... we have no input into either sport of political disciplinary matters..... and can only look on as spectators at a bull fight do, waiting for blood...

Sometime, senor, the bull win!

Bloke goes to a Spanish restaurant, and sees this steaming dish of footballs put before another diner... he asks the waiter what it is. The waiter replies:-

"Thees ees the testicles of the bull keelled in the bull fight thees day, senor... it geeve to the eater zee strength and virility of zeee bull!"

"Wow - can I place an order for tomorrow night then?

"Si.. Si.. ees all arrange for you, senor!"

Next night the diner comes in and the waiter brings him two tiny little footballs and puts the dish on the table.

The diner is aghast - "But... but.. yesterday the bull gonads were five times this big! Why are mine so small? These are about man size!"

The waiter shrugs:-

"Sometime, senor, zee bull wins!"

Actually, the truth is that Gayle didn't apologise. Quite the opposite - he was unrepentant. But don't trust me on that - it's in the news everywhere. Google it.

Watch his mouth move and words of apology come out. Then give yourself an uppercut for sheer stupidity.

Save the uppercut for yourself, and throw in a jab or three to your nutsack for good measure while you're at it...
