We invented every sport worth playing.
We invented every sport worth playing.
And cricket.
Baseball > Cricket
For a myriad of reasons but mostly that the manager wears the uniform the players do inexplicably.
There’s nothing like a pensioner dressed like a 7year old to prove a point.
Baseball is cricket designed by committee, much like most American things are a good British thing designed by committee.
Lewis is a disgrace to Yorkshire.
Rounders is much better because it never goes beyond school walls. Once you're past 14, you never play it again.
American handegg is the worst sport ever. You cant spear your opponent. You cant clothesline a man. You cant clip someone with your helmet. It's a pussy game.
We used to play this game called "Smeer the queer" which of course is an awful title in 2018 but anyways... the object of the game was to take the 'handegg' as it were, run by or passed everyone else playing, and get to the "endzone" whatever that may be ("passed the mailbox but before the concrete!")
If you were tackled, you basically gave the ball up and there was a "scrum", as it were, to see who got it next. There was no real point to it except to try not to get tackled.
Long story short, your country's treasured pastime is an off-brand, non-sanctioned child's game that has no real strategy whatsoever and how dare you compare it to the chess that is AMERICAN FOOTBALL.
American football requires even less technique than basketball. It's just the most American sport ever invented.Originally Posted by SincereTheRebel
Isn't baseball one of ours as well?
There are hardly any.
I count about 6 or 7 in the top 20.
It's become such a huge part of the game recently and it makes watching certain players so boring.
Lol, nothing even comes close to the tripe that is basketball. An absolutely pointless game that requires zero skill or thought.
Well that's just obvious horseshit.
This weird campaign against basketball is hilarious.
The only problem with basketball is that the first half doesn't matter.
That's the problem with all of their motor racing too, the first 3/4 is totally meaningless, to the point where in oval racing they'll practice overtaking each other. In fact nearly all of their sports could be improved by cutting them in half at the very least.
To get this back on track:
Just spent a good part of the morning listening to old Girls Aloud/Cheryl records because why not.
allou-ette-ette-ette! allou-ette-ette-ette!
Why do?
I love pop music.
*shit
Is this what that annoying middle aged woman at your work has done to you?
Oh no I've always loved pop music. In fairness, I like all kinds of music. Hip-hop is probably at the top of the pops but I've always had a fondness for pop, never really grew out of it for whatever reason.
Girls Aloud/Cheryl in general probably the more cheesy side of that coin but you can't act like there's not some great pop records out there. Abba and Gaga come to mind off the top of my head.
Doooooon't gooooo wasting your emoooootiioooonnn.. laaaay all your looove ooon meeeee
Nice to see you back Bruh but there's no need to post like a nonce.
By chance I was listening to Cheryl Cole today. This specifically, hadn't thought about it in years:
I'm still a huge Steps fan.
I'm embarrassed to say, I like this song a lot. Its been on repeat for about two weeks.
I'm with Bruh on Girls Aloud. Biology in particular is top flight pop.
I make a spotify playlist every month. I add and delete stuff as the month goes on and then start again fresh on the first of the month, usually leaving behind about a 30-track finished playlist for the previous month. It's usually the latest rap songs but a few anomalies often make the cut. Currently on this months is this bad boy:
I'm a twit
I was singing, asshole.
This seems like a fun idea
Been watching a few games a week as they roll around on BT Sport, as well as condensed games on YouTube, and I think I'm becoming a Yankees fan - mostly because they're the first team where I saw five guys whose names I remembered, but also for this. Just murdering the ball
I still have no idea what some of the stats are/why anyone gives a fuck about them (wins/saves, for example), and it's weird how every game is commentated by the home team's guys, but otherwise it's solid. The real test will be whether I still give a shit in August though.
I didnt think Id end the day holding deep racist feelings towards the philippines.
