Sports teams are good for bets, to me nothing else. The President is a fink. |

It's jerking off with your brain and attention, our ancestors would be appalled at how much time we waste with stupid crap like this. It's even worse in other countries. A nothing soccer game, just average play, can get 200 million viewers worldwide. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I'm pretty close to your position on this. I rarely watching sports on TV except if there is an opportunity to appreciate the best in human beauty and athletics like women's figure skating. However, I do enjoy a live event from time to time. I've been trying to months to get anyone to go to a Knights game with me. I put down the interest in the more contact sports to our fascination with war. It is a fairly safe way to enjoy a mini conflict. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

I am resigned to go to one Knights game this year. You are welcome to join me but my wife may tag along too. I believe you met her years ago when she worked for Kurt at Huntington Press. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I love it when men phrase things like this, like the wife is their kid brother they're stuck dragging around with them. Most of the time the truth is, if she doesn't go, he can't go. I have never seen a marriage in my life where the wife is not in charge 95% of the time. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Always drove me nuts, the SO female had to tag along. Most of the time she did not even want to be there. Girls go out with their girlfriends all the time, guys never get to go out with their buddies. The President is a fink. |

They're insecure, they go to make sure the guy doesn't cheat on them. Like Leykis says, the better looking the woman, the more insecure they are. The few 10's he dated were basket cases emotionally, needy and making constant demands. Nobody can live up to being a 10 and nobody knows it better than an actual 10 herself. I never got that close to a 10, but even the 7's are clingy and demanding. No thanks. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I think I go out with my buddies an average of twice a week during the year, more in the summer, less in the winter. I feel bad for you if you don't go out with your buddies. Why wouldn't you? |

beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | I don't know his fiancee, but I know him some. If she thinks she's going to change him at his age, she's been deluded. If this is just razzing ahead of the wedding, go for it. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |
