Football talk.

Sports aren't only about athleticism. There's a lot more to it than that. Pentathletes and ultramarathon runners are probably the best athletes in the world, and their sports are dead boring.

By the way, final score: Pats 17, Titans 14. Another great game. What a day.

any "sport" whose league has people that are not athletes is not a sport. now that excludes football with those 500 pound linemen of yours that can barely move as well as the other overweight people, and baseball where most of the players can only chew tobacco and go crazy with steroids so they can hit a ball as far as they can, meanwhile every time i see the fat thighs these guys have under those tight pants i turn away. how are these guys called athletes? they can barely run. these things are not sports. Now im not a big fan of hockey but thats just cuz i dont like it, but there is nothing better than soccer or basketball , whether its playing or watching. now these guys are real athletes and you dont fall asleep watching the game.

Got another great game on our hands. 14 all with 5 minutes left in the 4th.

Every pitch is a chess game, my friend. You'll never know what it's like to have to control your adrenaline, stand on the mound staring down the man with the bat, and outguess him into missing. He's doing exactly the same thing.

You just don't have the IQ to truly appreciate it. There's nothing more exciting to me than a great pitching duel, one hit the entire game, one run scored. I hang on every pitch. If you don't understand, you never will, and you're missing out. Hockey is fun, but it's a mindless game of men on skates beating the xxxx out of each other. Football and baseball are thinking men's games.

Ok. We are all too dumb to understand the complexities of baseball....and to possibly compete with all the rocket engineers who turn out to be football players.

However, sports are, for me, all about the action. I'd play a board game if I wanted to use strategies.

By the way, jahannam, your major is Art History and the History of Architecture. Isn't it fun getting to know each other?

i'm in the field of Electrical Engineering, there's no major minor, i don't know why. I'm going in the Electronics field later on.

Panthers always win.

I figured they would. Doesn't mean it wasn't a great game. How was your day?
