The British jockey George Baker is reputed to be the tallest jockey in the weighing room, and I just wondered how tall he is.

Let's just pretend boxing finally gets it together and has ONE Association/ Federation/ League i.e MLB, NFL, NBA, etc. and you are chosen as the comissioner. What changes would you make to the sport? Here are my first two items:
1. No more entourages accompanying or entering the ring with fighters. In case they didn't get the memo, no matter how loudly you talk on your cell phone during the postfight interview in the ring, you just don't matter.
2. Restructure the PPV mess. Look PBF, Jermaine Taylor, all current heavyweights, NONE OF YOU has PPV appeal (not if we want boxing to go back into the mainstream). A card that features a "main event" which has been preceeded by several events pitting the John Smiths V. John Doughs just won'tcut it. Look at the UFC PPV (an event which is leaving boxing behind). Generally any of their matches could be staged as the Main Event. Boxing PPV events need to be handled in the same way.
None of this will happen, and I'm sure boxing doesn't care!!!

My husband and I live on a golf course, but we don't play. When we walk the trails in the neighborhood, there are duck decoys all over the place on the golf course. Why are the duck decoys there? What are they supposed to do?

In light of the internet providing meeting places etc for football hooligans who dont even go to watch the matches, do you think the only solution is to ban? Maybe this is inevitable as all actions esp violent ones cause consequences. What do you think?
