Is it my imagination,

or does Daryle Ward look like he has lost some weight?

there are a few track sports I like

hurdles and sprints I think are cool

only for the same reason people go to nascar races… the chance of carnage ina wreck

and thats not the reason I like hurdles or sprints

In the hurdles watch

for a woman named Lolo Jones. She’s from Iowa and expected to get gold.

Good luck Shawn Johnson, Lolo Jones and Doug Schwab. Bring home the gold!!!

I suppose you are right, not everyone is there for that,

but another example is hockey, most people are there to see a fight. not all but I bet a lot

"That guy is a gamer." said Ron Santo of Reed Johnson on 07-25-08

by love the ivy on Aug 16, 2008 7:19 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Are you serious?

Hockey is a great sport, and the fighting is just a sidenote. I’m assuming you aren’t a hockey fan? That would be like saying people just go to baseball games because there may be a brawl. Come on.

I didn't say all

And I like hockey well enough.

This is dumb to argue about,

but you did say most. Anyway, I digress…

marathon-type distances on the other hand are kinda boring to watch

unless there is someone in specific you are cheering for.

now the marathon part of a triathlon is more interesting

but that isnt a Olympic sport
