Re: March Madness = March Insanity

And it gets even crazier. Today, Saint Patrick's Day, I wore bright green to work.

One of the basketball-crazies just spent 5 minutes trying to guess what school's team colors I was wearing. :shock: Um, dude...you have looked at a calendar lately, right? :roll:

Re: Why hate sports?

I wanted to do a weight training course in high school for PE but you had to waste your summer in a course that, if you passed, approved you for the class. Since I prefer not wasting my time on that, I'd rather stay like this. :roll: Fortunately, once you get to the college level, you get more flex...

Re: March Madness = March Insanity

The next time you're in a waiting room and sports are on and no one's watching, get UP and TURN the Channel!! I certainly would. I've done that to the TV in the locker room at my gym....usually turning it to news or Comedy Central. Oh, and now we get emails office-wide: there will be a pool on the ...

Re: Of all the things..

sportsrox1234 just another mule account for RAY and SKUL Enough with the false accusations. Why would two adults create a false account with "13 years old" in the profile? They'd be setting themselves up for trouble. It makes NO sense and neither do you. This thread is getting awfully clo...

March Madness = March Insanity

Ugh. Can't have a freakin' conversation at all with anyone at work this month because it's all nothing but college basketball playoffs and brackets and what not. Not much to say...just a rant I guess. But it is pretty bad here in North Carolina, where collegiate basketball is probably as big as hock...

Re: Here Is Some More Stupidity!!!

Sounds like confusion. Mercury is pretty bad in swordfish and shark still (though I know very few people who eat those). But tuna steak is overall safe unless you eat it everyday. Canned tuna has even less than tuna steaks...and if you get the cans labeled "Chunk Light" you have even less....

Re: An Example of Football Fan Thugary

This is just nuts. Imagine the peaceful relations that these countries have in the European Union could shatter because of brain-dead sports hooligans causing an international incident. You may have to go back in history a bit...but wars have started over less. :shock:

Re: Favorite T.V. show

Oh --I like Travel shows too. I like Samantha Brown's shows. But I'm not crazy about Anthony Bourdane. He seems a little rude. Andrew Zimmer on Bizarre Foods who eats weird food is pretty cool though. Ah yes. Samantha Brown is like the luckiest person on Earth...to get paid to lounge by a beach on ...

Re: Awesome And Humbling!

While I'm not in the least surprised at the difference between Earth and the Sun, the part that is surprising is that different stars have such huge size differences between them. Our sun is tiny compared to those others. Something I don't recall hearing about before.

Re: introduction and general comments

Well don't worry...most of us are not anti-fitness or anti-health. It's competitive team sports that is the inspiration and focus for the vast majority of this site's discussion. hey guys, here's my theory on sports - let me know if you guys agree..i think attraction from sports mainly stems from t...
