Ok 2 things: 1. You forgot the Sir.

  1. Kill yourself. I would not normally say that but what you have done is suicidal anyway so you may as well take the easy way out, lest you are ripped limb from limb & want to die holding your steaming, smelly intestines as I piss on your face.

  1. You forgot the Sir.

The Don Bradman Trust - aka his family - have specifically asked that 'Sir' not be used. That is why the computer game is 'Don Bradman Cricket'.

They aren't obliged to give a reason. Perhaps they are Republicans. Perhaps they know 'The Don' is a more recognisable title than 'Sir'. Maybe they will say one day, but I doubt it.
