Hello, are you interested in Cricket?
gpt
Hello.  I think Cricket is interesting although I have never played.  I think it is one of the only games I can think of that has 11 players on a field at a time. 
human
Yes, sounds interesting that the players of the batting side score runs by striking the ball bowled at the wicket with the bat while the bowling and fielding side try to prevent this and dismiss each player so that they are 'out'.
gpt
That is interesting. I meant to say that each team has 11 players on the field at a time.  I didn't know there was International Cricket Council.  Did you?
human
*raises eyebrows* Yeah, I heard about that.  I also heard that there's an all US born Cricket team from Compton that won the British cup twice. 
gpt
That is awesome!  It seems like Australia does very well in cricket considering they have won 45% of all world cups. 
human
Not only that but the Australians have also appeared in 63% of all finals and have won 71% of their final appearances.

gpt
I had heard that somewhere.  However, apparently both England and Australia had diplomatic consequences for using nasty tactics against history's best cricket player.  It sounds like this game can get serious. 
human
Apparently, it can get nasty and go for a really long time as well. The longest match in the history of cricket was in 1939 England playing against South Africa that took part in a single match that lasted 14 days.
gpt
That would be a really long match.  I wonder if people stayed to watch.  Some cricket players have interesting names like the professional Indian cricket player Napoleon Einstein. 
human
*eyes widen* I thought that was cool too. They keep playing until ten players have been dismissed, then the innings end and they sway roles. That 14 day game must have been exhausting for the players. They probably had extra players coming in from each side to pull that off.
gpt
They must have been.  I think it is interesting that the game of cricket spread globally when the British Empire expanded. 
human
I think a game close to Cricket is played in most other countries except the US where football reigns in the sports arena as the national pastime.
gpt
Football is extremely popular in America which is probably why those with successful careers in sports are often associated with celebrity status. 
human
Yes, that's certainly true. Celebrity status is often associated with wealth referred to as fame and fortune, while fame more often provides opportunities to earn revenue. Football certainly lends itself well to that aforementioned celebrity status.
gpt
I think it is interesting that as popular as football is that LeBron James is the highest paid celebrity followed by Judge Judy,
human
Agree on that, too. Judge Judy makes $123,000 an episode. Wow, I wonder just how much Lebron James rakes in then?
gpt
Right!  I can't believe that.  Celebrities also get special perks like a secret room at Pixar studio that they can visit.  I wonder if Judge Judy or Lebron James ever visits there.
human
Good question. They both have probably been there!  Celebrity status gives many perks that common people would never know about.  I know that Carol Burnett was the first celebrity to appear on Sesame Street. I bet that was a real honor for Elmo and the rest of the gang!
gpt
Yes.  She is pretty funny.  Speaking of funny actors, Robin Williams started the trend of celebrities performing voices in animated films in Aladdin.
