When one is trying to demonstrate the homo-erotic nature of male sports....it's best done by talking about the homo-erotic nature of male sport .What does this demonstrate about me ? I'm rational ?

How idiotic . I could think of nothing more dull than watching hockey . You can't even see the puck half the time and there is no way to know which moments you ought to get excited as the whole goal pricess is quite random. The game is just not sophisticated in its designs of highs and lows for the spectator . Even though its bad for this reason...its not half as bad as basketball...where either the game is over before the last 5 minutes...or only the last 5 minutes matter...stupidity .


Hmm, how idiotic. I can think of nothing more dull than some quiff waxing eloquent on subjects they have no clue about.

He has a point though. can you really see a bunch of africans playing hockey or south americans? I like it for it's tougness and the fact you have to have a pretty large skill set to play well but "goldensport here to cure the world of childhood/teenage obnesity" it ain't and regardless of whatever magic the wicked witch from the north comes up with, would never be.

Now Petanque...THATS A FRICKEN SPORT!

Playing and watching are two different things . I watch rugby and cricket 'cause I was conditioned into it through nationalisitc fervor , but they are lame to play . Hockey might be fun to play...I don't know...I can hardly skate...but its' super lame to watch .

This thread has turned out exactly as I thought.....hockey is great and soccer is crap.

Well, newsflash....soccer is the most popular sport in the world because it is good, whereas hockey is not the most popular sport in the world because it is crap.

I hope this is crystal clear now, because being bored to death about hockey and anything whatsoever connected with Canadian nationalism is amongst the many reasons Canadians are universally despised.

Careful .There is a mod here with no life and a hair trigger . Don't make light hearted banter of any kind . Keep it serious and don't forget to add refrences for academic purposes . It's not about the enjoyment of the members , it's about proping up and panering to the mods napolean complex .

Sorry people, but you're all mistaken.

The greatest game the world has ever seen is hurling.

Check it out.

What did you expect in a post titled Soccer is Bullsh!t? Undying acquiescence to a game that can be played for ninety minutes and longer, end with a nil/ nil score and be considered one of the greatest games ever played?

Boohoo, Canadians are universally despised, boohoo. Typical.
