[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5624622, member: 54877"] An analogy by way of explanation of the above: You go into a sports bar. They show various sports on television screens. They ask you what you want to watch. You say, something besides football (American or soccer; highschool, college, club, or pro; male or female--all out), baseball, basketball, golf, tennis, rugby, track and field, rowing, bobsledding, or timber tossing, or any form of skating whatsoever. The bartender says, "O ... K... let's see what we got on right now. What'll it be then, an ESPN documentary on grade school dodge ball? Or maybe the middle-aged software developer beach ball tournament?" Your turn to your friend, and say, "Man, this place sucks." Your friend says, "Yeah, and I'm scared to see what is left after you tell him your exceptions for drinks." For purposes of clarity, this example may have included some hyperbole...:lol: [/QUOTE]
