i assume it has something to do with sports

Dogfighter28 12-27-2011 01:12 AM

yes, bama is playing lsu for the national title in a couple weeks

Dogfighter28 12-27-2011 01:12 AM

FOOBAWWWW

slunken 12-27-2011 01:15 AM

sports is politics for the lower and middle classes

slunken 12-27-2011 01:16 AM

and i hate politics

slunken 12-27-2011 01:16 AM

and the upper class

Dogfighter28 12-27-2011 01:16 AM

sports is a film that has a fluid script

slunken 12-27-2011 01:16 AM

i could see that - but like most movie-goers the audience/supporters are only interested in seeing explosions, nudity, and things to quote into oblivion.

not caring about the writing the cinematography etc

Dogfighter28 12-27-2011 01:20 AM

depends on the sport. something like baseball can get pretty fucking technical.

there is plenty of strategy and 'sports politics' to go around with something like football. if you lived in the south you'd understand how intense it can get beyond the obvious. its both disgusting and fascinating.

slunken 12-27-2011 01:20 AM

if it were up to me i would ban the broadcasting of collegiate sports and the selling of collegiate sports-related merchandise

for me it's not about the game because it's not about the game anymore.

at all. it's a media circus centered around products for dollars.

college football has its own identity apart from the NFL, more so than any other sport and its professional counterpart. the sense of school pride, family roots, and deep rivalries can't really be found anywhere else you look to the same extent.

LETS HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME

slunken 12-27-2011 01:24 AM

i agree. and that's why i think it should be taken off the air.

to preserve that integrity.

slunken 12-27-2011 01:31 AM

i'm sorry i shouldn't be arguing about modern sports i know nothing about them

redbull 12-27-2011 01:46 AM

redbull 12-27-2011 01:46 AM

those people usually argue against sports from a personal standpoint (sports is where you reward bullies, strength and athleticism are overvalued, harpies often like to point out how "gay" sports are, etc), not a anti-commercial one

i just started thinking about football this way recently and it has enhanced my enjoyment of the games. i really really love football and grew up a big redskins fan but there is no way i can root for that team until dan snyder sells them or dies. and baltimore isn't that much of a better option.
