Pop quiz! Spot the flaw in the above sentence. :lol:

I'm stumped?


The part where you say your straight. ;)

Haha, but that's all true. You can think someone is hot without having an ounce of sexual desire towards them.

Oh and I got my tickets confirmed today for the All Whites v Bahrain qualifier in under a month!!! Going to be intense.

On an unrelated football note, my peewee team is in the Superbowl (league championship). So far we have an undefeated record at 10-0 counting the playoffs. YAY FOR ME!!

Big matchup to watch in that game is the GB recievers vs the MN secondary. Antoine Winfield is injured, and it will be interesting to see if Rogers can pick apart the Vikings D, or if he will simply get sacked on every other play as he did a few weeks ago.

Hey sports fans,

I'm growing bored with football. Sure, its fun to follow, but watching the games is sooo boooring. As my uncle once said, 'Once you've watched hockey, you can never go back to football'. Well, I bit the forbidden fruit. I watched hockey on TV. I enjoyed it. Now, even games with my favorite teams seem like snooze fests. I mean, all those damn commercials and play-stops. Its like watching a friggen cartoon on Nickelodeon that is more then half commercials. I mean, I never watched a full game except the Super-Bowl, and that got boring around the middle. All the games do. Maybe I should just tune in for the fourth quarter. Anyway, I'm rambling now, so I'll let you get back to sniping about which version of football is better, USA or the rest of the world. Seems like that mentality is everywhere these days. Ah well, I might still watch 4th quarters, or just check to see how my team is doing, like my approach to basketball or baseball. I'll definitely come back to this thread to watch that little debate, or watch Bluth throw a tantrum when the Colts lose, or make fun of people's names.

So long for now,
Bavin

PS: GO KINGS!
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.- Carl Sagan

My only problem with hockey is that the camera is zoomed in far enough that you can't see most of the rink, but far out enough that you can barely make out the puck. I love live hockey, but I only watch it on TV if the Flyers are in the playoffs. That is exciting.

Burnley, Portsmouth, Bolton, Wigan...

In Spain half of the teams aren't reaching 20.0000, France is having 7 teams that's having 20.000 fans on average,

Or what about Juventus, of all names: on average 19.308 people !
