International I Hate Sports Club

Also, speaking of chess, I challenge you to a game of Chess, Fat Man. I bet you this "monkey brain" jock can beat you. I haven't even played in 3 or 4 years but I'm convinced I can beat you. I'm sure we can find a place online somewhere. Nowadays all you have to do to win an online game o...

Fat Shit: You said you didn't give a hootanany about the kids who lose their scholarships. The kids who rioted and the kids who are on the football team aren't the same. There seems to be a misconception out there that Penn State student-athletes currently on scholarship are about lose those schola...

Surely the kids who were already on scholarship would keep their scholarships, right? I always thought that was what it meant when they took away the ability of the school to grant football scholarships; it meant that the school lost the right to grant any more of them going forward for the next few...

Earl, Maybe you could consider giving Northern Mike full, pre-approved posting ability? I realise we need certain level of control just because the spam attacks have gotten so bad, but I think Northern Mike has proven he's legit. You might do the same for monolith (although, as a non-moderator, I ho...

I always said Marie Curie was gross...

Now I'm right!

(I'll keep the blond jokes, the Polish jokes and the women-can't-do-physics jokes to myself, though. )

I have to disagree here. Adams was a judge, so he clearly was not "white trash." I'm guessing his office and career paid well enough to place him high in the middle class.

I'm breaking my word from earlier, because I just couldn't keep this YouTube video a secret:

Scary times ahead...

Examining the difference between a simple game and what makes it a sport helps too. Example, I would say I like bowling, but that doesn't count. It doesn't count because I don't subscribe to 'bowling teams' nor have I ever played it competitively, nor will I. I played bowling with my wife and some ...

I'm Walter, and I've found this website. I would have just blown it off as a collection of people who simply don't like sports. Instead, It seems to be a collection of people who think sports are a huge problem with society :shock: Well, Walter. When I first got here I was just a jaded sports fan w...

Welcome back, Millhouse. :) Annoying pseudo-intelligent sports tard mantra number 22,428 -- Make absolute certain to try and twist everything into a pissing contest. Yes, those two points pretty much sum up the guy, eh? "Pseudo-intelligent" and "turns everything into a pissing contest...

Yes, good points, HugeFan. And now... I think I'm about done with this thread and most of Fat Man's future threads, at least until my job situation stabilises. It's not that I disagree with him. But I get so pissed reading the stuff he reports on that I can't focus on the rest of my day. Like Earl, ...

Well, here's some food for thought, Fat Man: How much worse could prison be than in life in America already is for the poor? Why are you afraid of going to prison? With all the new laws they are passing, aren't we basically already there ? What incentive do the poor even have to follow the laws? The...

@ Fat Man People whom Bush views as non-Americans and not worth helping need to be honest with themselves about that fact. Those people include: (i) non-Christians, and (ii) the poor and the lower middle-class. The Bushes are public (I guess?) about not considering agnostics and atheists to be true...

@Earl I'll await your reply. In the meantime, I want to explain something I said. When I said "I fight dirty", I was referring to some petty remarks I made to Fit Man and Buffy, like when I called Fit Man out on a logical error he made and when I kept harping on Buffy's misuse of the word ...
