It's amazing what passes for a "sport" these days, huh?
I remember back when ultimate frisbee became a "sport". Shit, I always thought frisbee was what you played on the beach with your dog. Caffeine/Ephedrine is great stuff, so long as it's used judiciously. I played 2 (real) sports in college, one NCAA and one club, and that stuff flat works. |

Speedstacking, the sport of losers whose parents were losers, whose parents' parents were losers, etc.
[BS] I would like to see them stack those cups as I shoot at them with my Ruger Mark II. Now THAT would be a sport. [pistol] As much as I like tossing around the frisbee, I gotta agree dbrowne. He has bashed Ultimate Frisbee so I shall cover Frisbee golf. It completely removes the sporting aspect of golf. 1) NO carts so no drafting and bumping 2) NO drinking (because I hate walking a lot when I'm drunk) 3) NO danger of severely wounding any of the players DOWN with sissy sports! DOWN with the sissies who play them! |

i'm sorry but "DARTS" is the only real sport. Where else can you get drunk and throw sharp pointy objects at a target. Especially if the scorer insists on sitteng next to the board during the throw.

Quoted: i'm sorry but "DARTS" is the only real sport. Where else can you get drunk and throw sharp pointy objects at a target. Especially if the scorer insists on sitteng next to the board during the throw. mike Darts is a drinking game, like Beirut, Asshole, etc. It is not a sport. Back to the original topic... The people who proclaim things like "speed stacking" and anything that uses a frisbee to be a "sport" are the same people who proclaim "fundmental rights" to work, health care, and shelter. Their claims with respect to sports are entitled to the same level of credibility. |

Couldn't agree more.
Let's throw synchronized swimming into the mix. I'm not saying it's easy...definately not a sport. Quoted: Quoted: i'm sorry but "DARTS" is the only real sport.
