What's the difference between a sport and a game?

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 13 Dec 09

I think any activity in which the layperson can practice every day, for 12-14 hours a day, for an extended period of time (couple years?), and turn around and put up a good fight against a 'pro' in that activity, is not a sport...

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 8 Dec 09

Virginia Tech student opens fire on campus and murders 20+ students!

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 16 Apr 07

Violence on university campuses is getting out of control. It seems as if the numbers of tragedies are increasing rather than decreasing. I can remember back when I was in school the campus on security was nearly void. What's it...

What's the 1 thing you'd have done differently if you went back to high school?

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 16 Apr 07

I would have forged the parent permission slip and played football. I was, and still am, very competitive and quite an athlete, but when I was younger I was a skinny runt. My parents wouldn't allow me to play football for fear...

Is there a point to the submitting tags to discussions and responses?

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 13 Apr 07

If there's an option to skip it, it leads me to believe it's of very little significance to take the time and tag your discussion. I mean, it's already in a particular subject heading/interest, so what's the point of the tags? Do...

Are there any peculiar closer situations we should keep an eye on?

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 12 Apr 07

As a fantasy baseball competitor I'm always keeping tabs on relief pitcher, or closer situations on particular teams, for there simply aren't more than 32-40 closers available. And of those pitchers, only 15 are good reliable...

Investigations are under way that the #1 closer in all of baseball had a chalky substance under the brim of his cap that he applied to the ball on two different occasions. If such is true, Bud Selig (the commissioner of baseball)...

Why are Chicago Bears fans so clueless?

ColonelConclusive @ColonelConclusive (316) • United States 8 Apr 07

Living in Chicago as a non-Bears fan is difficult enough to stomach, but when Bears fans talk about the game or their team and the players on it, it's not only comical, but it's painful. I haven't heard one opinion or read one...

A real estate investor has bought the Chicago Tribune, and he's already expressed he has no interest in maintaining ownership of the Chicago Cubs. This is probably a good thing considering, the Tribune has shown little interest...
