And Formula One racing. That stuff's so exciting I can barely hold back the snores.
And that spinoff from snooker called pool [which isn't played anywhere near a swimming pool btw] that the yanks play [because snooker is obviously too complicated for them] is another one. pah! 😀

Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveYeah, NASCAR certainly is DUM. Pool, on the other hand, is played in the bars for money, not followed on the "telly". That's Poker! PAH!

The game is much, much more than just throwing and catching. If they renamed it "catch" or "throw the egg" as you recommend, that would be no more descriptive than the term football. To summarize the intricate sport of Football in one word is simply impossible - unless you use the word "brilliant".

Soccer players don't need pads, but having a stretcher strapped to their back would save them some time getting these babies off the field when they get 'tackled'.
Enjoy your jerry-curls and orange slices. Do the airplane, super cool knee slide, it's a GOAL!

Celtics and Rangers? I don't follow NBA either.

I meant the Original Celtic and Rangers, the ones that were playing sport while you immigrants were still fighting over texas, and complaining that you couldn't whip blacks.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundActually, the Chicago White Sox of baseball are an older oganization then Celtic FC. Just a little FYI. The Boston Red Sox were founded only 5 years after Celtic.

Originally posted by darvlayPlus, there is already a sport called Throw the Egg. I should know, because I invented it, and won the inaugural world championship in the late 1990s.

Originally posted by darvlayAre you sure? Celtic first played Rangers in 1888 but were founded in 1887 I didn't think the White Sox went back that far what year was their first game?

I did find this which seems to indicate they were founded in 1893:
About. The White Sox have roots going back to 1893. They started off as the Sioux City, Iowa franchise. They moved Minnesota, then again to Chicago where they have settled since 1900. They won the World Series in 1901, 1919 and in 2005. Sox is short for 'Stockings'.
