As I was browsing around for articles on tonights Bengals/Ravens game I ran across this article and this quote. www.msnbc.msn.com/.../ "I mean, this isn't a soft sport. We don't play chess. This isn't swimming. This isn't one of those kind of sports. It's football. It takes a man to play this game, and to play this game you have to have passion.'' I had to laugh.

  • Nice story Lewis! Are we really going to call Geek "Lewis" now? I think he just put his name on there because Gull took his off after that "cautionary tail" thread. I can't spend that much time watching football anymore. I hate boxing! I don't think golf is a real sport either. There is no physical exercise or endurance involved. Now, Tiger Woods may be a real athlete, but he's not in a real sport. The only sport that should take 4 hours is marathon swimming or a real marathon.
