Hockey is much more awesome than basketball. I always wondered if baskteball was sublimated interracial gay lust or something.
In hockey people wear armor and smack each other and stuff. Also, the stadiums are much better designed (I guess because less people watch it here)
Basketball, football, baseball etc. are one of those sports everyone else in the world watches and are like "You know, sometimes I suspect americans have no fucking class" |

Yeah it's weird how it took so long for him to be charged, but I think Gilbert is gonna reach a plea deal. I'll be very surprised if he gets any jail time but after what happened to Plax you never know
Either way this plus their current record will lead to the Wizards' entire roster being blown up, starting with Antawn who will probably be gone very soon |

Remember when this country used to lynch black rapists? I guess now blacks can rape whomever they want as long as they play the "race" card |

Basketball would be a great sport if its no-contact rules were more lax, or if the NBA were more strict about enforcing traveling calls.
Or at least if the NBA had refs who called everything down the middle and didn't let star players get away with walks, push-offs, hops, etc.
Basketball is high-paced and physically demanding, requiring speed, coordination, and endurance. As it stands, however, the NBA is widely regarded as the most corrupt sports organization in the country, with regards to crooked refs who tip off gamblers and fix games.
A big part of it is how incongruous the rules are with what actually happens in the game. Any time a player drives the ball in, there is physical contact. Obviously, you can't call it on every single play. Whether or not it's called is left up to the referee who could have any reason whatsoever for his decision. It's like holding in football. It happens every play.
Same thing with traveling.
Stuff like this makes it really hard to get into sports unless you're gambling. |

I care about hockey in much the same way I care about Catholicism. So I guess I do care quite a bit! _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

Why is Wake Forrest called Demon Deacons? Are they implying Deacons have evil awesome powers? Or are they saying that "this basketball team consists of asshole catholics ostracized from a protestant state" |

I hope the Saints win the Super Bowl.
Also, my prediction that a team that barely beat the Chiefs wouldn't win the Super Bowl was 100% correct. |

Apparently I graduated to being less retarded despite making the most wildly inaccurate sports prediction possible.
It would be really cool if the Saints won the Super Bowl or even made it there. I don't think any of you can understand how frustrating this team has been over the years.
It's kind of surreal to see them legitimately among Super Bowl favorites. |

This is so fucking stupid. I don't know why I get so invested when I KNOW shit like this is going to happen.
They gave it away. They just fucking gave it away.
I assume Jared Allen and Pat Williams are beating Adrian Peterson and, basically, everyone on offense to death right now.
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU GET PENALIZED FOR 12 MEN ON THE FIELD COMING OUT OF A TIMEOUT? |
