Gay sport, gay name. It's appropriate in its own way.

No paddings in Aussie football.
And basically no holds barred.
Well not true, I think scrotum grappling is off limits.

And yes, I had to try baseball in school.
But when I discovered I had less then 50% bodyfat I had to give it up.

ok to that first one OWWW!! I should HOPE that that is off limits

and all I say about the baseball thing, is that your school must not have had a very good baseball team, wait it is europe...baseball isn't as serious as it is here.

The hardest thing to do in sports is to take a round bat and hit a round ball square.

baseball isn't that popular among younger kids in the US anymore, because it requires effort, unlike soccer, where they can just mindlessly run like idiots and no one will care.

precisely.

I played baseball through seventh grade. I loved it, but I never really liked soccer.

baseball is pretty much non-existant outside of the US and japan as far as i know anyway.


softball is a reasonably big summer sport here in NZ, but cricket is far bigger

i dont know what it is, but North americans just dont seem to "get" rugby, or football (soccer)
