Matthew Hayden bitten by a dog


Seems everyone wants to sink their teeth into the Australians these days. The media, ex-cricketers, Chris Gayle, bloggers such as myself... and now even the animal kingdom as a dog has attacked Matthew Hayden while jogging in Kingaroy. What really gets me is his response:
"You are always a bit shocked by that sort of thing but I was more disappointed than anything."
What's with sportsmen and this overuse of the word 'disappointed'? Next he'll be describing the "positives" he's taken from the incident. I can understand the need for diplomacy when criticising an umpire's decision or an ICC ruling? But who is he afraid of offending in the canine community? Is the RSPCA one of his sponsors?

Hey JC.

Yep, agree totally everything seems to be "disapointing" these days. For some reason sports people can't blatantly say anything bad about their opposition... or rabid animals it seems!

It's all just one big disappointment...

Ready for another summer of cricket?? ;)

The dog is taking it one postman at a time.

The dog could smell revenge in Haydos
