Wow. That's really relevant, too. Why not get rid of the international channels because of the demographic of the average lawn cutter too?
you're skirting your own absurd point.
First, an apology for letting this thread get this far off track.
I did try to get us back on track earlier, but I got sucked back in. Sorry.
My intentions all along have been in support of "band". They were not to diminish sports in anyway. I have participated in many sports and continue to enjoy a wide variety of them.
Sadly, disagreements like this seem to force people to take side. You are either "pro-sports" or "pro-band". Seems petty to me. I support both as both have unique qualities that should be explored.
Unfortunately, in my past posts, I have not made my point clear and I am afraid this has caused a really stupid tangent off this thread. Sorry.
I was using the point of members of the football team mowing my lawn as a playground-like response to Rolltide's post.

ESPN .... Are you crazy ?
LEt me guess that you were in the Band in HS ?
Sadly, many of my former team members have not done so well after high school. My arm-chair analysis is that they put too much emphasis on sports and did not have a well rounded outlook on life. Balance is important. But that is just my opinion.
I will not respond to anymore posts down this tangent. It is time for it to die or move to a new thread
