    Well, I don't know about the rest of that stuff, but I hate basketball with a passion.

    No offense to those of you who like it, but I hate it. Just another thing to keep American men's mind off of what is going on about them. Except for the "GET THE BALL!!!!!!!" mentality.

    BTW: Get the ball. Great advice. Bet it took you years to come up with that little pearl of wisdom.

    back in the day, I played college football, and 1 night doing the 25 cent pitchers, at a downtown pub, I saw a 160 pound wrestler take on a 225 pound linebacker. the LB never knew what happened. he was the floor lickety split and both eyes were closed for him before he could even react. never pick a fight with a collegiate wrestler they go Tasmanian devil on your * in a heartbeat

    Thanks for the heads up on the wrestling yesterday! I just caught the tail end of it but still enjoyed it.
    I wrestled in HS and wish I could get back into that kind of shape again! My sopsamere year, wrestling at 106 lbs, I was bench pressing 225 (on a weight machine) and could do 102 pushups in 60 seconds. That's from full extension to chest touching the mat. Them days are looonnngg gone![;)]

    Two of my fraternity brothers were NY state champion wrestlers (in different weight classes) Yeah, they would have you pinned to the floor and screaming uncle before you knew what was happening. Good guys, I saw one at a football game last fall with one of his kids.

    I always liked high-school basketball, because they were playing for their friends and classmates, and not for fat $ or NBA talent scouts.

    I had to chuckle when a guy in Phoenix was complaining about having paid the Phoenix Sun's owner a small fortune for a season ticket, because he liked to watch Charles Barkley play. The owner took the money, and then sold Charles Barkley [:D].

    High school I weighed right at 225 Lbs. They had me wrestle the state heavy weight champ. I beat him no problem.

    So they had me wrestle the Little guy, still have no Idea how I ended up on my back rolled up in this little ball and not being able to move.

    Just remembered they had a picture of him on face book.

    ..Basketball? I saw on the news that our loathsome prez was
    filling out his "brackets"...whatever that is. That sums up
    my knowledge of basketball....or any other sport for that matter.

    ..Go ahead, ask me who played in the Super-Bowl or World Series.
    All you'll get is a dumb stare as I'm thinking about waffles.
