CURLING IS ON NBC!!!!! YES!!!! (not kidding, I love this sport!)   |
No Picture... |
Football and Basketball....if the players weren't playing they would be thugs on the block stealin' and dealin' or in jail for various other offenses. Most white players would be back on the farm tossing hay bales and tending to crops.  Baseball...very few athletes left. Game is a shadow of its former self. John Kruk said it best after refusing to run out a hit to first base..."ma'am, I'm no athlete, I'm a ballplayer." Hockey...great sport. Too many crybaby pussies running the game and the unions. The last strike killed it for many, many fans (myself included).  NASCAR...not a sport, never was. Golf: You can't wear those outfits and be called an athlete. But, it takes endurance and stamina to remain focused and play 72 holes in a weekend in the hot sun sans a golfcart. Funny isn't it? Pro Wrestling is fake, but it has the biggest collection of true athletes.

I don't disagree, but you mean to tell me that football, baseball and hockey players don't use the juice? 
|
oh of course. I guess I'm partial to football precisely cause of the mix of players, kinda like a war strategy - you have your light cavalry (safeties), heavy armor (line backers), mine-fields(offensive line), LRRP's (wide receivers), command and logstic bases (QB) etc. Each guy has his job and the coaches are the generals. and oh yeah, fat fucks like me get to be good at something

I'd venture to guess that the number of steroid users in hockey, baseball, and football is great smaller then the number of steroid users in the WWE. I'd even venture to guess that hockey of the "sports" listed (I don't think PRO wrestling is a sport. But that's an entire different debate.) has the least amount of steroids in the game. None of what I say can be backed up by any kind of stat... at least by me. It all purely speculation. I'm biased towards hockey because I absolutely love the game. And that's my disclaimer to my post. ~Dg84 |
You are probably right. For the record, I hate pro rasslin'. But it does provide more entertainment value than pro baseball, golf, basketball or football. I prefer college sports. The athletes are still unpaid and hungry. They work harder to make a play and win.

I'm getting more and more pissed at the NHL... Bettman diluted the talent pool through expansion, has damn near taken checking out of the game, and the players are as greedy as hell. Now Bettman wants to put get rid of the the classic hockey sweater and make the league wear this tight assed Reebok jersey. They're driving away all they're traditionalist fan base to do what? Add five new fans? Frakin' ridiculous. I feel the same way about minor league hockey as you do college sports and I actually enjoyed all the college hockey they put on T.V. during the lockout year. ~Dg84 |
