We need to ban Professional Sports

Post by grizzaholic »

..Hell, all sporting events for that matter. Think of all the injuries/deaths we could eliminate if we got rid of baseball/football/hockey/golf/rugby/etc...

According to WSB-TV reporter Rachel Stockman, witnesses reported that a Falcons fan punched a 49er fan, who in turn pulled a knife and either cut or stabbed the Falcons fan in the neck.

I don't think you have to go all in here. We should try instituting measured steps first...like banning Falcons fans.

What about all of the deaths in Baseball stadiums, and parking lots, this year?

I have been trying to get baseball banned..think of all the extra wood we would have for building things. Think about it!

Being a fan of trees and wood craft, I fully support this. I use to follow baseball closely, the NBA too. But baseball players are only slightly less lazy than their fans, and the NBA is just slightly less rigged than professional wrestling...or roller derby.

Wood craft? Really? What do you enjoy making? Everyone that has the bug wishes they had one more tool/machine/etc...what is yours?

Mine: Wish I had a planer that was more than 24 inches.

I enjoy making rudimentary dog houses in my garage, a tree fort that lasts half a year, a washer board set that lasts two football seasons, etc. The one tool I wish I had was some ritalin to help my ADD addled brain focus on and finish a project. :ohno:

I'm going back to making hand carved, fire hardened, walking sticks out of driftwood. :thumb:
