bleh. individual sports are appaling.

team sports are a pathetic degeration of Olympian/Uranian struggle of battle and victory into silly plebeian entertainment

You can be 75 fucking years old and play golf.

Do you realize that baseball is more than just "swing swing hope it goes somewhere?"

The pitching strategy involved is light years above. "Watch me swing my phillipinegro putter"

Jer- it's fruitless, I just realized that. It's like trying to explain quantum physics to a pre-school class before naptime

 

[dorian gray]

yet more difficult to master than individual sports.

yes, i played baseball for several years. yes, its hard to hit. but theres no constant action or timed intervals like in any other sport.

this totally threw me for a loop the one time I went to a baseball game ... I had no idea the game even started

baseball is really capable of being boring, to me anyway, cause the season is so incredibly long. but come the playoffs...its great.

I'm with JayKeeley, the World Cup is the single greatest sporting event every four years.

Do you guys do anything special for the superbowl?

I'm going to watch some games of the World Cup this year for the first time ever. That FOOSBALL match I saw last week really opened my eyes. Good shit.

PS: I didn't read this thread, 75 posts in ya'll are probably talking about anal sex with monkies by now.

Actually, it's been at least related to sports.

I've been loving Fox Sports World channel lately, they broadcast a shitton of Euro club matches (English, French, Italian & German).

I'll have to go to bars or a friend's house I guess, since I refuse to pay for television.

Spare a thought for me whenever you watch a game involving Saint-Etienne. They're my heart and soul.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I don't think any (or many) of the games are "live." I think they're mostly a random assortment from the previous week or so.

There is a French club match on @ 3 PM (EST), Bordeaux vs. Lyon?

I don't know who I'm supposed to go for, USA or Germany. Cuz like, one is the place I dun be and born, and the other is where the majority of my heritage lies.

I am so con-fu-sed! [/Ricky Retardo]
