Sports - 28 December 2007

I get so tired of hearing the same old rant about "all of the cars look the same." People think that they should take a car off of the factory floor and race it. While that would be interesting to see, it would essentially kill the manufacturer competition. Whichever manufacturer produced the best handling, fastest, and most aerodynamic vehicle would be the car every team picked to drive. If Ford had the best show room cars, everybody would be driving Fords. And then you'd have 43 cars that were now EXACTLY the same.....manufacturer and all. The current system allows the manufacturers to be competitive with one another.

A silly debate I had with a coworker. Which is more of a "perfect game", a game in which the pitcher strikes out every batter on 3 pitches or a game in which a pitcher retires each batter only on one pitch?

I went to Walmart the other day and noticed they have a new scope on the shelfs here, its a Center Point 3-9x40 scope, its got a mil-dot reticle, and looks realy realy nice. I did some searching and cant find much of anything on these scopes. I need to know if they are any good. I mean I did look through the scope and it seems pretty bright, but I want to know about durability. I know you get what you pay for, but this scope looks BA. It would go on a Remington 700 ADL, .243 win.
You guys know anything about these scopes??

Why not just start the teams on the 25 or something? Kickoffs are almost never run back for TDs, and sometimes players are injured on them.

If you are a fan of MotoGP and could go anywhere in the world to attend racing school, where would you go?

Background: My husband loves watching motorcycle racing and has a small collection of bikes in our garage (Ducati 900 SSSP I believe, and a Triumph Sprint). He turns 40 in 2009 and talks often about the Freddie Spencer racing school in Las Vegas. I'm thinking birthday present. But, if we're going to travel across the country for this (we live in NC), I thought I'd ask about racing schools on a global basis. Worldwide, are there any Freddie Spencer-like racing schools? Or better?

I´m a fan of the Patriots ´cause they are a great team and they are one of the closest team to my home. But I´m not sure what team who´s really the closest to my home. I live in Sweden. But even though I root for the Pats!

I'm not saying Parcells was a bad coach in Dallas, but let's look @ the facts:
-Bill Parcells never won more than 10 games in 4 seasons. Wade Phillips has already won 13 games in 1 season!
-Parcells never had a #1 seed in the 2 playoff appearances(2003 & 2006).

Does this logic sound crazy or does it make sense to anyone else????

Peyton Manning or Vince Young for week 17.
Their teams are playing eachother.
Peyton Manning is probably sitting for a lot of the game, while Vince Young HAS TO win the game to make it to the playoffs. If I dont get a good enough answer, im trusting Young

Tx. very much.

So I'm going skiing in Switzerland on Sunday, staying in Pontresina near St Moritz. I'm a beginner skiier, having only been on dry for 10 hours, fake snow for 2 hours, and real snow for 1.5 days. I was wondering what lift pass would be ideal to get, bearing in mind I have a limited budget, and hence the £110 one for a big valley isn't ideal for me.

As I was driving into work this morning in my 72 El Camino hooptie (got 1 hubcap cause 3 got stolen) I overheard talks that Michigan QB Ryan Mallett would probably be transferring because new coach Rich Rodriguez would bring in a his own players, including a QB.

IF this is true... Where shoud the tall dude go?! ESPN Radio speculated a SEC team like Arkansas, or LSU... What college team has the want and need for someone like Mallett?

Why?I understand that the patriots are going to accomplish a feat that's probably harder to do and more important then anyone in your family's entire bloodline has done. But what is the point of being jealous/Sure they'll have the most wins without a loss in one regular season. and they'll have the most touchdowns thrown by a qb in one season and most touchdowns receive by one wr in a season.


But I don't even think it's jealousy. I think we've come to a point in sports in which nobody can be happy when a record is broken. Like people just want the records to stay there. Why? What is the need to put an asterisk on the ball that bonds hit?


Is it that he's so much better then you that you just have to hate him?is it That the patriots are so much better then you as a human-being that you just have to hate them?I don't get why nobody can be happy when a record is broken by someone just plain better then them?
