| My vote for the most physically and mentally taxing sport goes to horse racing ("the sport of kings"). It's physically and mentally taxing for jockeys who have to always be on strict diets and worry about getting thrown and trampled on...It's also physically very tough on the horses (who get whipped a lot to go faster in all kinds of weather...) And, it's especially taxing on fans who usually lose money (leading to depression) and get double taxed the few times they win... |

Anyone else hate those annoying types of patriots who somehow tie their national sport to their own sense of self-worth?
"I heard Hockey is the toughest sport and Canadians excel in hockey, therefore Canadians are tough".
It doesn't take a Freud or a Jung (or a Kinsey) to figure it out.
And then they wonder why people bash their country on this board.  |
The only one you're making sound like a nob is...you. No one in this thread has said this, or implied it, except you. |

What's a nob? (are you sure you want to get into editing, DJ?)

Re-read the OP, knob.
Joined just a few days ago, did we? Or is that stinky feet I smell? |
