How about the Fat Euros in the dart tournaments?I don't know which is worse.

Yeah....thank god for cycling, darts, poker, soccer...without that crap on ESPN, I might feel I was the only person in the world without a life! Congrats to Red Sox fans by the way...Ortiz may win the pennant single-handedly!

Ortiz is the best thing thats happened to Boston since Yaz.

I was in a pub the other night and swore that Rock Paper Scissors was on on ESPN..and Ortiz is doing a fine job, long may it continue!

and regarding Landis, still think that his effort looked way too good to be true!

Ahhh the great athletes of baseball. The only team sport that a player that can barely run is of value. Go Barry, chase those balls down sport. What a joke. He is an OUTFIELDER. Baseball fat guys and beer.

Barry is no more a joke than Landis. Only difference is people cared about Barry at one point. Nobody really gives a rat ass about cyclists.

Only time the sport makes headlines is when drugs are involved. Its an utter mess.

Actually, some of us do appreciate cycling. It is a godawfully difficult task to huff your way up the back side of Madison in Seattle, let alone get through a stage of the TdeF...I personally find baseball boring, but if you like it, that's cool. Leave my bikes alone.

I dont care about Barry's rhoids. He cannot run yet he still can play OUTFIELD? How does that happen?

Gander · #11 08-01-2006, 04:56 PM

I dont think many care about Barry anymore Pgard. That was my point in another thread. As much as we talk baseball on here, his name seldom comes up.

Sorry about the cycling bashing. I like riding my bike, just find the guys on TV to be boring. But different strokes for different folks.

I know many people who are bored with baseball, and thats very understandable.

And Pgard, for the 100th time, I dont remember anyone ever saying baseball players (in general) were anywhere close to "great athletes". Just not sure why that matters.
