They bring on a bloke who just kicks the ball?

It's proper poo!

Soccer teams send out 10 blokes who just kick the ball so it's 10 x poo.  That makes golf one of the greatest sports because no one kicks the ball, other than Elihu Smales, and he's a dick.

What is sport?

an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature

I have been fortunate enough to have been able to see every super bowl game.  I love defensive struggles, where defenses battle toe to toe for supremacy.

The rules of the game have changed so as to favor the offenses of the game, and still, a great defense actually won the game.  I have witnessed 3 of the top

defenses play in the super bowl.  The first being The Steel Curtain defenses of the Steelers in the 70s'.  Many from that defense are now in the HOF.  The second

that impressed me were the 85 Bears.  Again many of them in the HOF.  And now third, which in mho may be the best of the bunch the Broncos Defense against

a very fine offense from Carolina and a great young Quarterback directing them.  Stats show, if memory serves, number 1 defenses have won 12 out of the 14 super

bowls that a #1 defense has competed in.  Last year Seattle's defense was #1 and lost.  One of only two times that a #1 Defense has lost a super bowl.

Something to store in the memory bank.

#1 Defenses have won 10 of 12 Super Bowls after last night.

I'm a big fan of Von Miller...dude is a beast.

Saw most of the game and was happy it was a tight scoring game up to the last quarter. I hate it when it's a blow out. Almost all of the commercials sucked. Really a big let down IMO as this is about the only time I bother to watch them. The half time show was pretty ho hum. Not a beyonce fan at all. Frankly would have rather skipped it. Played on my tablet while it was on.

Sure was impressed with the way the talking heads are so concerned that Manning is going to retire, when Manning hasn't said a word about it AFAIK.

It's not.  Golf is just walking through a park with a purpose.

Have you ever done it?  Give it a shot, at least 9 holes, and report back.  Last round of golf I played was a good workout and it was a really casual affair.  Someone serious about it would likely get a better workout and benefit from strength training as well.

More of a hobby than a sport
