Just a bunch of dudes bouncing a ball. Big whoop. And the last 2 fucking minutes take like 40 minutes to play. Bounce, timeout! Bounce, Time out! Oh I have a foul to give... OOPSIE TIMEOUT! Fuck, make it interesting. Put a couple landmines out there or something. But no, it's just a bunch of mopes in shorts that hang down to the ankles jumping up and down waving their arms, falling down too much for someone so big, and taking FREE throws. Oh! You touched me! I get a free throw. gay. |

Teams should get 2 timeouts in the last 2 minutes...1 in Mins 1-2 and 1 with less than 1....it is amazingly boring with the fouls, foul shots, timeouts, TV timeouts, 20 second timeouts, full timeouts, subs, etc. |

I used to like basketball, but this thread makes too much sense. |

They score too many points so unless it's a blow-out you can't say the better team won. I mean it's entertaining and all that, just unsatisfying. |

Most games come down to one decent free throw shooter. Lame. That's like a baseball game going into the 9th and the hitters getting to hit off a tee. |

Football was on last night and will be on Sunday and Monday. Your blind devotion to a game you can play for a grand total investment of $10 in sporting goods has made your head swell up with fluid. |

Any sport thats easy for poor people to play must suck. I'd much rather spend several hundred dollars to be able to play my favorite sport. |

So you're saying it's a easy sport to play? Good. Another reason why it sucks. |

What is even funnier is I meant to say scratch your lesbian basketball itch. It appears I have become dylexic this week. I knew it was a rough one but that that rough. Oh well. Only 30 more minutes. |

Has nothing to do with anything else. It's ok, just admit it. And what's with threatening teammates in the locker room with a shotgun? |

You said another reason basketball sucks is because it's easy to play. Sports aren't difficult to play, and if you have a basic idea of how to ice skate than hockey isn't really harder than basketball, football, or baseball. If you meant play well, than that's different. I know a lot of guys who are good and 1 or 2 sports and suck at the rest of them. |

What you need to do is get your mind off of the hockey lockout. Why don't you come out with T-Bone and me tonight? We're heading over to Hopleaf for a few, then up north on Clark, hopefully to scratch some itchy lesbians. |
