Ahhhh, for the good 'ol days  :-* ::LOL:: 8)

Philly had expat white British men back then !


now is all mexicans and odda immigrants 

Phil team ALL true blue, born & bred, Americans.  Had STRICT rules against expats playing
on their international teams.  King wasn't on 1909 team to Jamaica.  If he was, Rastas
would have been AMERIWASHED!!  8) :-* ::love::

The Broad Street Bullies are Philadelphia claim to fame.

New Philly flick comin' out: Green Sward Bullies  8) ...JB King played by Russell Crowe.  ::love::

no need for Russel the Gladiator

his 2 cousins Down Under are Martin and Jeff

real TEST cricketers ..

Will need some Rasta cricketers for bit parts when shooting the scene of 1909 Jamaica tour.  Just have to stand in front of stumps
and be bowled by Phil. actors when cameras rolling.  8) 8)
