"Have fun, but have fun in a disciplined way"

I spent two hours cleaning the kitchen today, listening to CRICKET on the radio as I toiled.
Cricket on the radio continues to entertain, even as the game slows to a crawl.
TEST MATCH SPECIAL commentator HENRY "BLOWERS" BLOFIELD and summariser GEOFFREY BOYCOTT (the former Yorkshire and England cricket star) are currently decrying the boisterous, apparently drunken England supporters in the western terraces of Headingley, Leeds.
"Have fun, but have fun in a disciplined way," Blowers just said, chastising the fans for such digressions as tossing beach balls to one another and occasionally booing South African players.
I am laughing as I listen, praying that Blowers never has to broadcast a baseball game in Philadelphia. How ill disciplined would he find those fans?
There are eight overs remaining in today's match. ENGLAND are currently 39-1 in their second innings. SOUTH AFRICA scored 522 in their first innings, and lead the hosts by 280 runs.
