You can rationalize anything if you work at it hard enough  :laughing7:

Ever watch soccer? I don't know how it ever got popular. I had to watch a few professional games a couple years ago, and it was so mind-numbing that it even makes golf look like a blood sport. A single game lasts for about 37 hours, during which each team gets maybe 1 or 2 goals, and they almost inevitably end up tied. Then, they get to try to kick the ball into the goal with no opposition except the (remarkably effective) goaltender in an attempt to break the tie. To call the game boring would be to glamorize it. Buncha guys running hard around a huge field kicking a ball back and forth endlessly. I've never seen a group of such tireless athletic men working so hard for so long to get nothing done. If I live to be 1000 years old and never see another soccer game, I won't miss it for a nanosecond.

Ya, I never really cared for soccer either, other than football, the only other sports i watch are MotoGp and the Dallas Stars every once in a while..But really if I'm gonna watch hockey, I'd rather go to the game in person. It can get pretty exciting..

I love (American) football, but my favorite sport has always been baseball.  Any game with a clock always has this sense of unfairness to it.  In baseball everybody gets 27 outs.  Plus I like all the stats.  And it's not boring to me, especially since anytime I'm watching something at home, I ALWAYS have a guitar with me.  I can even watch soccer if I have a guitar.

Watching sport? On TV? Voluntarily? Really? :icon_scratch:

This forum should *always* have a thread about Gilmour on the "recent unread topics" list.  While he's in the top 20 of many (most?) of the "greatest guitarists" lists, he's still underrated.

Well done.

Agreed.  The only person I ever stalked LOL.  Well I didn’t.  But I did hunt up the Astoria when I was in Eng in 2016.  Hunted it up again when I was in Eng in 2017. (Much better view from across the Thames in the Park)
Then again my wife hunted up George Harrison’s estate when we were there in 2017.

Aaghhh my country has been abbreviated...

 

[bagman67]

The decline of the Empire has been an ongoing thing for most of a century.  Abbreviating England is a done deal.

Ducking and running now...

Take him to the ducking stool  :laughing7: :laughing7:

 

[ghotiphry]

Well, speaking as a citizen of the USA...  Although Eng is a bit different.  I would normally use UK.  Not the same, I know.
