the circumference of the women’s basketball is 1in. smaller than the circumference of the size of the men’s basketball
I'm sitting here trying to think under what circumstance I would watch women play basketball. Nothing.Still, can't believe I never heard this either. :sadbanana:
I remember one year where the day after the MLB all-star game fell on a Saturday, so NBC tried to push a WNBA game since there were no other major sports happening that day. I watched about 5 minutes out of morbid curiosity.

What means this?
I'm always amazed when people ask this, especially people like yourself. Do you ever go to Jack In The Box? I know they have them in more places than Oregon...I've seen 'em. All over. Their commercials run non-stop. Right?Anyhow...there's one on my way home from work, right before I get on the highway. I like to stop and get a Sourdough Jack from time to time. They aren't good for me, but I rationalize it away like I do everything else in life. I also avoid the fries and the soda.

If I ever find myself on death row, I'll probably just order a few of these.

I bet I could finish one in under a minute.
we're going to need video

I think we need to have a thread-wide contest.

Actually, I went to a New York Liberty game my first year here. Gimme a chance to explain.Tremendous PoA. Very, very, VERY high maintenance, but I somehow thought it was worth. She could wear her hair about 17 different ways, they were all beautiful and interesting. Killer body, though a bit on the waif side. She used to play point guard at NYU. Still, I don't know how I ever said yes.When I was about 20 or 21 I took a girl to see Loverboy in concert (or was Lover Boy? kind of glad I don't remember). I was nearly deaf afterward. Not from loud music, or screaming guitars - no, it was from screaming 15 year old girls. It was ridonkulous. That is the experience of seeing the New York Liberty at MSG. Imagine 10,000 junior girls from Harlem screaming simultaneously. The game was close and went down to the final shot.That was the deal breaker. No woman, no matter great she is in bed or how beautiful she may be, is worth that kind of bull####.Of course, the other thing was she was 12 years younger, so finding a reason to break up wasn't all that hard.

If they played in bikinis I might watch.
 
I played college basketball. Granted, it was D-III ball, where if you could walk without a limp, you could walk on.

Even having played, I cannot fathom watching it on TV.

This morning I text my bookie, who I don't know that well but we have a close mutual friend. Our exact conversation goes like this:Me: What is moneyline for Vikes tonight?Guy: Find it on the internet. ( :lmao: )Me: Sportsbook says +280.Me: If that's OK, can I get $30 on the Vikes ML? I'll be in SF on Wed. and can drop off $ if need be.**no response. Hours elapse, and the news that Favre has been upgraded breaks, which I obviously had no idea about. Line is now +240.**Me (several hours later): Just want to confirm that this is locked in? Thanks xxxxx. -RoverGuy: No. I will pass.WTF is this? It's just $30! :thumbup: :lmao:
Your bookie takes text bets normally?... and asks you to look up the line? This is just one of your friends who randomly takes bets, right?Way to go, sperm of Bentley.
He does everything by text, and usually texts me the lines. I don't text him often, only when I see something online that looks good (which isn't that often.)
Interesting. You do need a different one though.

A week or so ago they accidentally played the first 7 minutes of a men's college game between Illinois and Oakland with a women's ballIllinois complained and the refs realized the mistake

Illinois trailed by 11 before the correct sized ball was entered into play, they ended up winning 74-63, outscoring Oakland by 22 with the proper ball



"Our kids said something right away, but I said 'You guys are just missing shots, shut up and play,' " Weber said.

Mortaza believes that may be the only way for women's professional sports to survive—and, somewhat disturbingly, recent history backs him up. Despite the rising popularity of the sport, the Women's United Soccer Assn. disbanded in 2003. The Women's National Basketball Assn., while heavily subsidized by the National Basketball Assn., has seen several franchises fold. In recent years, prize money for the Ladies Professional Golf Assn.—which never equaled that of the men's tour—has fallen. Even professional women's beach volleyball, whose uniforms are skimpier than the LFL's, folded in 1998 before being restarted in 2001. Women's tennis has come close to rivaling the popularity of its male equivalent, but sex appeal is part of the package.

"We're 260 percent more profitable so far this season than at the same point last year."

Why didn't I think of that? /Bruce Pearl

 
After college, I worked for the LSU athletic dept. I think I literally watched every single game of every women's sporting event during that year. Soccer, basketball, volleyball, gymnastics and softball. The only thing I could enjoy was softball b/c it was very quick, there were tons of strikeouts, no hitters and the team was very good.

The basketball team was very good also, but it was absolutely awful to watch. Just horrible basketball. Soccer was soccer and gymnastics was somewhat interesting only b/c it was different.

Awful. A chick ball is like a mini-ball. Horrible to shoot with.Always wished girls would play on 9' or 9.5' baskets. I want to see chicks dunk on chicks.

JOE WEBB STORY BEGINS.And a chick dunking on a chick would be awesome. And yes, when they have sex together that's good too.

Also, drunk on tequila and beer.

 
Jack in the Box = Hardees

Western vs. Southern

Pretty sure JitB bought out Hardees many years back. Most of the Hardees I knew are gone now.

GB tequila and beerGB chicks "dunking" on chicks

Need Cutler to score 10 more points than Webb the rest of the way

We have a chance here, people

Crap, that holding call hurt

 
I am in the finals of a league I've been in for 12 years, where I'm nearly always 1 and done. I've never won or even reached the finals before.Unfortunately, it's a traveshamockery that I'm there. I have the 8th highest-scoring team out of 12 teams, and I backed into the playoffs riding a 5 game losing streak after getting lucky with matchups over the first 9 weeks. Every other team in the league except the one I faced in the semifinals would have beaten me this week.I think if I win next week everyone will quit.
just to make it worse, I'm going to start Tim Tebow in the championship game.
 
Never eaten at Hardees, Jack in the Box or Carls JrOr a Sonic, Cracker Barrell or Waffle House fpr that matterUs NYers live a sheltered fast food life
I think I ate at a Cracker Barrel once when I was on biz travel. Northeast Ohio is dreck, was the only thing decent around. I think I had angina in my hotel that night.

I've never eaten at Sonic or Cracker Barrel. Waffle house I think 5 times, 2 of them in Georgia after a fishing trip. Almost never eat Hardees/Carls jr. There is a JITB right by office though. I eat there a little too often.
