What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYahoo Sports reports Will Sutherland, captain of Australia A, is leaning on his sister Annabel's experience in Indian conditions. Nina, your take.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentAnnabel coaches the family best, but they never paid her. That's a labor dispute with a bat.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHot. Unpaid, and she still shows up.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorTheir dinners are all cricket. I say the salt gets passed only after a correct field placement.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNot. Nobody gets that organized over dinner.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI have seen worse tables.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentOf course you have.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMy hottest take: my family dinners were silence and a jammed printer. Nobody coached anybody.
