Sorry, but when offered the alternative of either watching overpaid, largely uneducated drug abusers playing a sport that most of us do just for fun.... or.... working on the Mac, spending time with my family, tinkering in my workshop or fiddling with one of the antique cars... well... I'll keep the TV off for that rubbish, thanks.

I fully expect your reaction to be the norm. I agree.

Sports?

Post by Terry »

I have to agree with Kevin on team sports, I've gone entire weekends without ever turning the TV on. I can think of many better ways to to use my time. Never was a team sports fan. Individual Olympic sports...I make some exceptions for.

I'd certainly rather be adding mods to the Mac, but... Since my boat's been in the repair shop four weeks with no end in sight, I've really nothing better to do than watch the WS while surfing the web and writing stupid responses to questions on this thread. :D

The world series is on?

I gave up watching sports long ago. Some love it and spend every weekend watching it like it matters.

My three hobbies/dedications are:
1)God (more than a hobby)
2) Family
3) Mac
4) Politics

I just don't pay much attention to the other "noise" out there, it takes away from the top 4.

I'll third (or fourth or whatever) the concensus on paid athletics. I enjoy going to local high school or college games, but have never really gotten anything out of the high salary drama that is the NBA, NFL, MLB, etc.

As for me, in my non-boat time I'm building a house for my parents -- which justified buying the coolest power tool ever. Do you suppose I could use it for a Mac tow vehicle?

Other than that my interests pretty much lie in cars, boats, and real estate....

Ideally, I'd be on the boat and watching football at the same time as I've done many times before. But givin the not sailing choice, I'd be watching football. I'm a Niners fan, arrrrghh :( , but still I can't seem to "not watch" the game.

Go to go a litttle against the grain on this one...

MLB I could give or take, but a do enjoy going to a minor league game. I enjoy college football, also. But, I love NCAA basketball.

Every year - first day of the NCAA Tourney - at noon you will find me in my lazyboy, in front of two TV's (with DirecTV March Madness Package), with a beer and chicken wings, and my wife (she loves college basketball as much as I do - thank, God). Luckily, college basketball is a winter sport.

I wouldn't even put this on a list of life's priorities, but I would sure miss it if it went away.

Resolutions and Rules Waiting to be Broken


Whoa! Am I mistaken or was there not a higher force (Patch & Paint) to be reckoned with back in September? Seems at that time the better half had a lock in your Web-interface, and the closest thing to the Big Mac for you was down at Mickey Ds. The Truth Be Told #1 and #4 create the arguments that break #2 down, and that leaves #3 for the attorney after the Separation and Divorce.

Chip and Kevin closer to reality
I read this about 5 time, but maybe I'm just tired, but I don't get it?
