I have several questions about rules in raquetball
what is the rule when...
1) the ball hits the ceiling light and bounces back.
2) the ball hits the door and then bounces funny
3) the ball hits the ceiling in such a way where it comes back, but does not hit the front wall
4) the ball goes out into another court (the court I play at has a big hole in the top, and I think in this particular case, I think the ball would have been good for my opponent had the hole not been there..
5) the ball hits either person.
6) can you change from right to left handed play in the middle of play? and back?
7) the ball hits the back wall in the crack between the wall and the floor.
thanks

When is this crap gonna be outlawed? I don't mean just taken off ESPN or whatever channel on TV--I mean BANNED. People are starving all over the world, and this crap goes on? I even heard a commercial referring to participants as "gastric athletes." Athletes! For ramming food down themselves, they are condered "athletes"?!? Oh,...my,...GOD!!!
Only in America, folks. . . . .

I mean the NBA with their thuggery, hip-hop, ballhog Era. I'll give the ball to my best player, let him get fouled 30 times and go to the line.
OR
The NHL players are getting severly hurt for cheap shots (fighting is ok) Jesse Boulerice, Tood Bertuzzi, Marty McSorley. The new salary cap, long season, unbalanced schedule (Why some Canadian teams don't play each other?), and no teams in Winnipeg or Quebec, but teams in Florida and Phoenix?

I much rather watch college hockey and college basketball.

We are just about to plant grass for a new rugby field and I was wondering a certain type of grass would be better to plant than say regular Kentucky blue grass. The field is located in central Illinois on the plains, usually with good rain year round (less in the summer of course). The follow up question would be is it too late to plant this fall (last week of October)?

The Winter Olympics does with Lake Placid, NY and Park City, Utah where the bobsled tracks, ski mountain, speedskating tracks, etc are open to the public for admission and you can actually go bobsledding on the same track where the 1980 Olympics took place. You can even skate in the same ice arena where the "Miracle on Ice" took place. Are there any other sports arena's or sporting events that do this I'm unaware of?

Im entering my senior year in high school and have been playing baseball my entire life. Ive been a varsity starter since my sophomore year. During my junior year i hit .330 at the plate and i started taking the game seriously and ive been working out everyday and hitting.
The only problem is that I havent even been sniffed by a college scout. However this summer i am playing legion ball and hitting .400 and playing solid in the outfield. Its my dream to go and play at a good college and then after college to prolong my baseball career in the big leagues. However I know the odds. If I go on to play at a d3 college, do I have any shot whatsoever or should I just give up on my dream.
Another problem that I have is my size right now I'm currently 5 10 and only weigh about 150 and dont have to much bulk to me.
Do I have any realistic shot at someday becoming that good if I play through college. People who have seen me play now would say I have no shot. But what about in the future?

I bet you will know the movie, the Wizard of Oz. And I bet you remember this quote "Lions, Tigers and Bears oh my". Well I would like to know how did Detriot gets Lions and Tigers, and Chicago gets the Bears. With both the Lions and Bears being football teams, and the Detriot Tigers are a baseball team. Was there no room in Detriot for all 3 teams, or how do you think that all this happened? I have no idea, how about you, any guesses on your part?

Florida, Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Auburn. Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, South Carolina. All of these teams are in and out of the top 20 all the time. The only reason they drop is because they beat each other playing a SEC schedule.

I was wondering what kind of solutions some people could think of to fix the overpaid athlete problem. They can be as crazy if you like. Please dont give any opinions on why you think they are not overpaid.
