Paaaa-Leeeeese!
It's bad enough that you introduce something on the softball board that isn't softball, but this isn't even a sport. It's a god-damn show where there are little to no rules and what there is, is rarely called with any consistency. Take it over to the Fairy Tales or Magic Kingdom board where reality is not a requirement for discussion.

"there are little to no rules"
Oh, yeah, no FLEX, no Re-entry, no substitution rule; just let the players come in and out whenever the coach wants to. Forget LBR, never argue about IP's, as long as they don't take more than 4 or 5 steps everything is cool! Forget inteference and obstruction, everything is accidental contact (unless your'e shooting). Bring on Hoops! BTW Mike - which professional team from the State of Deleware do you root for? WMB |

I don't cheer for major level professional team no matter where they are located. Yeah, I like the local minor leagues and college teams, but could give a sh** about any of the MAJOR sports leagues. Besides, once Delaware brings about sports betting, the fewer associations with major sports, the better. What's even worse, I didn't even mention the team, just the alleged "sport". Grow up. Wanna talk hoops, go to their board. JMHO, DCAY, Mike [Edited by IRISHMAFIA on Jun 7th, 2004 at 09:59 AM] |

"Grow up."
My, a little touchy, aren't we. So what you don't like pro sports. You don't have to, but millions of people do. Fan in Michigan love pro sports (and show it with their pocket books). The "Joe" holds 20K and the only way to get season tickets to the Red Wings is for someone to die. The Pistons lead the NBA in attendance (22K+). Even when they are lousy the Lions sell out Ford Field and the Tigers sell a million tickets. And a 100K+ show up at MIS for NASCAR races. And is that is not enough, how 'bout those that love college sports. On a given Saturday over 200K could be watching football at just 3 schools - UoM, MSU, and WMU. 75K paid to see MSU play Kentucky in Basketball last season, and 75K saw UoM play MSU in hockey a couple years ago. And now that the score for the opening game is posted, I can say more emphatically - GO PISTONS! WMB |

Delaware may be small, but the diversity in entertainment, education, participation and spectator sports, pro, collegiate or youth and adult amateur, is so great within 2 hours, there is much more to do than in most parts of the country. Did I happen to mention that we sit right in the middle of the New York-Philadelphia-Baltimore-DC corridor? Delaware doesn't need big time sports, or anything else for that matter, to enjoy those experiences larger areas do, so when it come down to it, why would I care about professional sports in Delaware? They are not necessary to the community. Quote:
However, even if the Pistons win, so what? A bunch of grown men running around in their underwear showing off for anyone who will watch. AFAI'MC, I'd rather see the Globetrotters. At least they make no bones about being entertainers. Mike |

With all due respect, If one does not like professional sports and professional athletes, why would one open and reply to a thread with the headline "Go Pistons"?

National Championships

National Championship. UM and Princeton are NCAA Div 1 A schools and any comparison between them and UD is irrelevant. To put that in terms you might appreciate, that is the equivalent of calling a pitch in FP softball over the center of the plate and just above the knees, a ball.
