I nominate Rheal "I turned a one-run Marlins lead in the seventh into an embarassing blowout in just one inning" Cormier to be the first American sent over to the new Iraqi Baseball League.
Don't even get me started with the Sox's bullpen...
Anything is better than the last couple of years. Remember Rod "Upper Deck" Beck? or Derek Lowe as a closer? :shock:

Yes, baseball...the only sport where guys on the team can be 100 lbs overweight and still be called an athlete! Try Lacrosse, it would make you baseball types faint.

Football is the reason for Britains success at peacekeeping. Playing sports with the locals (especially if we lose) is good for bringing the soldiers and local people together...

That's the whole fucking point of the game! Instead of running around like a dumb bastard in the heat and the sun, you put on your shades and the SPF 35 and you stand around in a grassy field with eight of your buddies. Every now and then, you chase after a fly ball. When your side is up, you sit in the shade in the dugout (if it's a casual game, you drink beer while you wait for your turn at bat). The fans hang out in the stands, drink beer, yell at the other team. Everyone's relaxed. It's a CIVILIZED game. Running around is for the winter, when the wind is blowing and the sleet is falling and the mud would be ankle deep if it wasn't frozen.

And don't give me the shit about "if you don't wear armour you'll get killed".
That's the whole point for the pads. With out the pads, there would be busted open heads, punctured lungs, and a whole list of other shit. What, do you think football players wear pad because they look cool? Hell, even with pads, players get broken necks, legs, arms, ribs, punctred orgains,...ECT.
Dude, I've PLAYED American Football. If neither side wore armour then you'd be killing each other left right and centre, but strangely enough it would be the tackler who would be getting killed most times.

The armour works both ways. Just take it off and play a real sport.

Yeah! YEAH!!

A Real sport... Like Medieval Heavy Weapons Tourney!

All you need is a cup, rigid protection over your knees, elbows, and shoulders, a weight-lifter's belt, and somethng to protect the chestbone. Then grab up a piece of 1 1/4in solid rattan, wrap it totally in ducttape to prevent breakage. Start slamming away at each other.

Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.
