Highscores are for retards. Thats the difference between statistics and skill.

Whats your favorite sport, why?

Why do in a video game what you can practice and participate in for real? Don't tell me you're a put-put fan.

You should come Golf sometime. Not too old to go a few rounds. Two kinds of guys, men who Golf and men who don't.

Football:
- team sport: your success is based on the coordination of 11 players at any given time, while having a couple people ready to play for each of those 11 positions

- War game: after the Civil War, people were concerned the newer generations were growing soft, so they created this sport to simulate combat. The first 20-30 years it was common for players to die from injury.

I've played and coached. Having the skill to take the ball and use whatever 11 people you choose to move the ball wherever you choose, making the opponent's 11 look like fools is something I will never be able to replicate with individual sports (golf, tennis, baseball [included, since only one person has the right to advance the ball]).

Highscores are qualifiers for how bad one's ass was kicked.

Golf is fun to play every now and again, but I won't watch it.

The only sports I really watch is college softball and the Stanley cup series. Everything else is boring to me.

Mountain biking. It's cheap to get into, endless permutations of equipment, and it's easy to start and do, but it can have a high skill level.

You can do it alone or in groups, bring the family, bring your dog! And you might even see some of the pros at your own park/mountain area fucking around. Watching those guys after doing it yourself is a bit humbling though.

It's also good exercise. Gets you outside doing stuff in nature.

American football is the greatest sport as it combined violence and strategy. It is the perfect simulation for warfare. Unfortunately, it is over run by commies, niggers, and faggots.

I invented a brand new sport and want to create a nationwide league of it and get a television contract and make stacks of dough!

The sport I invented is not a blood sport.

My sport is waterpolo, boring to watch.
Soccer voetbal is in my dna. Holland made it to the Euro half finales. Ww3 is less important 😁
Hup Holland 🙂

American gridiron is the greatest sport ever invented based on rugby it is a simulation of warfare.

Chess with human beings.

Huh. Gridiron wouldn't be a first. Are you partial to lacrosse?

Fan of draughts myself, asalto, and above all, go.
