Sports - 24 February 2007

I have lived in Mexico for a few years and based on what I have picked up from the culture here I have developed a theory as to why Mexico seem to do badly in Football.
Fact is that Mexicans have a culture that is very family oriented of wich they are very proud but its here where I belive the problem lies in sport.
Every Mexican is mums special baby and therfore when the grow up they tend to exel in individual sports, not team sport because no Mexican boy is told he is normal and sould contribute to a greater good, they are told that they are very special. They will continue to do well in Boxing and throw up a lady golfer or athlete or two, but as for team games they will probably lag behind. Shame because they are passionate supporters.

Or is the American gunowners' backlash justified? Earlier we asked (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ArKxgJBe5L8n5gdTlH.jizfsy6IX?qid=20070219154839AAteCSu ) what Jim Zumbo said that ticked off Remington Arms and Outdoor Life. Today on MSNBC.com, an article from the Washington Post (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17307316/ ) seems to make Zumbo out as the victim, claiming he was sacrificed to prevent a rift between American hunters and Americans that own firearms that the "ANTI'S" call assault weapons. Personally, I shoot an AR in competition, and am building an AR-based spacegun as a Match Rifle. I know his comments on these "terrorist rifles" did not leave a favorable impression with me.

Has the gunowning community been too harsh with this writer? Has the NRA used this instance to paint a wrong impression of the intentions of the gunowning community? Or has Mr. Zumbo merely illuminated a rift that has been hidden between hunters, competitors, and collectors?

I am a die hard Miami Dolphins fan. I am from Ohio so I am also a Cleveland Browns fan. Niether of these teams have given me anything to cheer about in the past few seasons. Do you think they will give me anything to cheer about in this upcoming season?

I know a Dwyane Wade injured himself against the Houston Rockets the other day. I heard it was a dislocated shoulder. Anyone heard how long he will be out?

Brian Moore was an ok rugby player.

But listening to him during matches is grim.Think his fellow presenters find it all a bit embarassing!
No harm in a bit of patriotism,but it should not totally dominate your perspective!

I think it's going to be the Bucks... my poor bucks are just losing every game. Even with Michael Redd back they can't pull off a win. I really hope either Durant, or Oden come out so the bucks can grab either one : )

Every or at least 99% of the dunk conceivable has already been done...Windmills, 360s, under the legs, behind the back,off the glass, freethrowline dunk...Heck, players these days are so athletic that they even combine two elements into one dunk like the 360 windmill by VC, double windmill by Kadour Ziani, under the legs off the glass by J-Rich, 360 under the legs by AUT, windmill off freethrow line by james white, hecck even the 720 has been done!!!WHAT NEXT??? You have the 2 times under the legs dunk???

And so, naturally the players have to be more creative by incorporating "creative" elements in their dunk...You have the dunk by alley-ooping from the head(steve nash style), doing cartwheels before dunking and pasting stickers on top of the backboard before dunking, dunking with eyes closed etc and they bring in props like tables and chairs and what next???...Hmmm makes me wonder when has the dunk contest became a circus show???

Name is Cristiano Ronaldo. Hes the new diving super star. Even though its in a different sport I think some diving teams or whatever you have should recruit him.

I still follow J.J. Redick after Duke, but it seems like everyone has forgotten about him. I know he doesn't get much playing tim in the NBA, but he does well when they put him in!
