Who doesn’t give a rats arse about team sports?

Avatar

I don’t mind watching it from time to time but not one of those who has to watch every one of my teams games.  I played union as a kid at rep level for the Rats, got sick of it cause I wanted to go surfing instead.  played water polo for school which was ok and most recently got dragged into playing AFL when I lived in Melbourne, decided I needed to try it to see what it was all about.  I now enjoy watching the Swans games when there’s not much else on.

Don’t understand the fascination with american sports or soccer, boring as batshit in my mind.

Friday Night Lights got me a bit interested in Grid Iron. I reckon during the height of me watching that show (i watched every season within a 6mth period, so at least an ep a day!)  I understood it more than any sport we play here! LOL

Haters gotta hate something - nothing better to hate than a bunch of homophobes with their heads stuck up each others butts

First player in any of the four major American leagues just came out (today). Looks like the league and players have all been very supportive. Interesting read: http://www.nba.com/2013/news/04/29/jason-collins-comes-out.ap/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpts

Im def into team sports. NFL, NHL and Super Rugby.

Can’t stand NRL anymore since the players IMO are so damn irresponsible and get away with behaving like peanuts half the time.

Im not saying the other sports dont have issues with players, but I feel they deal with them faster and more appropriately.

Or have good PR people to suppress it!

Even Coke?

I don’t believe Coke is a form of coffee? Both have caffeine but caffeine isn’t necessarily derived from coffee.

* I could be wrong about Coke but that’s my guess.

So is caffeine added to coffee?

No, coffee beans are naturally high in caffeine. But caffeine can be derived from things other than coffee.

But coffee is good for you, it’s one of the highest sources of antioxidants.
Caffeine on the other hand is not.
