Well you seem to be yelping a lot, kendall.

However, I fail to see why you should equate one's love of one's National game, with wackos running around your neck of the woods with testosterone poisoning.

After all, you wouldn't have mentioned sport related violence, had I not mentioned sport, would you?; wanting, as you were, to keep this discussion about losses that you approve of.

Ridicule my favourite game, if you want. Hate all sport, if you must, but don't assume the high moral ground, and claim to hold the monopoly on what is or is not valuable to a person, and judge it's loss to them by your own standards.

A thread entitled 'Hypocrisy and the Folk Musician', might prove interesting, don't you think?
