Monster Factory: Jim Johnman is playing BASEBALL in Don Bradman Cricket 14
Ойындар
At long last, it's Jim Johnman's turn at bat. And also pitching. And also refereeing.

Hearing Justin *almost* understand cricket gives me strength.
Are we just brushing over the fact that Jim Johnman is SIXTEEN YEARS OF AGE???

i'm australian and, honestly, jim johnman just looks like a guy i'd see on the street. jim johnman looks like the kind of guy who think's he's super enlightened and better than you because he used to be an ice addict, but quit a month ago when he stabbed his friend with a steak knife. jim johnman looks like he approaches high school students at train platforms and asks them to tell their school about him being a recovering addict and how he'd be willing to come talk at the school about that for $300. jim johnman looks like he keeps inviting you over for dinner, but you keep turning him down because his idea of having you over for dinner is serving some lettuce, 5 cheese cubes, and a few slices of ham on a paper plate, and when you're done he collects the paper plates, and puts them in a draw to use later. jim johnman looks like he has a really expensive TV, but the only furniture in the living room is three cheap plastic deckchairs. the TV sits on the floor. he didn't *buy* that TV. and these are all real examples of people who look exactly like jim johnman.

"If you get more runs than they get runs, you can't possibly tie. That's just sports, baby." Griffin learned how Cricket works specifically so he could pretend he didn't know how Cricket works. That's true dedication to the craft.

He did confuse a tie with a draw though. *Obviously* those are different things.

If you can’t cast a basic Blink spell there’s absolutely NO WAY you’re gonna make it in the cricket major leagues.
Griffin, the goal of cricket is to make the other team as sad as possible. Once every 3 bowls the opposing team is allowed to attempt a skortch, where they pretend to really be enjoying themselves to trick the umpire. Hence why the other team jumping and cheering would make you lose.
God, those were some quality christian rock music goofs that really shine a light on the McElroy household back in 2003

So I understand that baseball and cricket are related in that they're both ball-and-bat based sports, but good god does cricket seem way more complex
@JPH1138
5 жыл бұрын
Yeah, it is. As I understand it baseball was adopted in America in response to the exclusive and snooty nature of the cricket clubs in New England (most of which are long dead) and they streamlined the rules. In cricket every member of the team has to bat, the ball is bowled instead of thrown (which means the arm has to stay straight), there are around ten ways a batsman can be out and there are about six ways the bowler can mess up a ball and need to bowl it again.
I'm from England and this is probably the most I've ever understood cricket, which is worrying.

The batman, the hatman, the johnman
I want Griffin to know about LBWs so he knows why the other team cheers and then he goes away, but his reactions are so good and I don't want to lose that
dangit i know i made this joke last time but when our boi Jim is wearing the wide rimmed ranger hat i can ONLY see Duck Newton if he was a smoker for like 50 years
I... I think Griffin solved cricket. Like, he beat the game. He perfected cricket and now nobody can cricket anymore. He truly IS Bran Dodman reincarnated!
The first time I saw this particular set of Monster Factory videos, I mixed up the terms cricket and croquet and was BEYOND confused when this was what I got
I don't think cricket has ever brought anyone this much joy
On a scale of "Stinky Pete" to "Fat Baby" how accurate would you rate their knowledge?
The notifications I get from Polygon and you boys may be for the exact same video, but I still consider it twice the McElroy goodness.

Great job Clayton, keeping these good boys' sins under control.
God the editing choices are taking it to the next level. Love it.
I’m having flashbacks to playing cricket on a visit to England when I was in middle school and boy oh boy it’s all coming back to me now
Yo, clayton, good editing chops, keep up the good goofins, yeah?
This is one of my favourite episodes of monster factory it has an undeniable class that none of the other episodes posses
I haven't watched the full video so are they gonna talk about the fact that at 7:11 it states that Jim Johnman is 16 YEARS OLD or what *Update:* They don't :(
I distinctly remember them making JJ every position on the team and saying it would be a good idea. How did that go, boys?
thanks for fixing my hormonal breakdown brothers
The new editing adds so much.
The McElroys are the only people that can make a sports game interesting to me
18:48 three years and I’m just now noticing thats they edited don Bradman there
"Did I doink my own?" vs "Did you point?"
Im Australian, and this is the closest Ive gotten to understanding the crickets.
lovely day for cricket
"I can give em Switchfoot, Reliant K" fucking DESTROYED me 😂😂
In high school i went on a trip to Australia, and our first stop was the Sydney Cricket Grounds, where a professional cricket coach told us the rules of Cricket and shot cricket balls at us and i have no fucking clue how cricket works
this is more cricket than I have watched in my entire life
I have absolutely NO IDEA how cricket works.
I'm losing my shit over deep backward square leg
Knowing that I could watch this when I got home was the ONLY THING keeping me from flinging myself into space during school today god bless
And I thought the American sports games were impossible to understand. I feel like I understand less about Cricket than I did before watching the video
Oh! Look at our fancy bad boys with their fancy language. Good on you’s!
Jim Johnman looks so much like John McAfee it's crazy
100% sure that jim johnman on his own would beat my high school cricket team
LBWs are no joke Bois, once I got an LBW that just did eviscerate that whole area. Was swollen for weeks. Stay safe Jim Johnman, you and your amazing face is forever in our hearts.

LBW's have confused these boys more than anything I've ever seen, and I could NOT AGREE MORE MY BOYS
You should watch popular Bollywood film LAGAAN for all the cricket knowledge with added drama!
at the part on the character screen which was just tossing out terms like 'bases' and 'bowling' while claiming to not know anything - for real - i absolutely thought they were making up the attributes of cricket as they went. I did not /dream/ all the terms would be accurate
Not only do I love the fact that the "How i Make Bread" meme is real, thanks to user Maxwell Reitman : (Link here kzread.info/dash/bejne/goF2uqxyeZbWerA.html ) but also I know the Bros didn't realize that they made the killer from the hilariously bad british horror movie "I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer" but with spaghetti vomit hair.
