All Things Sport...

All Things Sport...

There are many threads dedicated to sharing experiences - good times and not so good - so I thought I would start a thread for those on here who love their sport. For me - and I suspect for some others - sport is a good distraction as it often blocks out the more negative emotions and helps to avoid triggers that many other things in 'life' so often seem to do.

This thread can also be a place where like-minded (and not so like-minded people @utopia @Former-Member @Zoe7 lol) can 'discuss/debate' their respective competitions in their preferred sport(s).

For those that are definitely NOT into sport @Phoenix_Rising for example - avoid this thread at all costs - whoops just tagged you in..........hahaha!!!!!

Re: All Things Sport...

Yeah @Zoe7 I totally understand where you are coming from with the commonwealth and olypmic games. I do like watching the sports that we don't get to see at all or hardly ever when they are on especially the winter games as we hardly see any of that any other time.

I will say though that sports is the only reality tv that anyone should watch. lol

Re: All Things Sport...

I actually like the Winter Olympics too - for the same reason @Scarecrowe - not a lot of coverage of those sports so nice to watch when we get it. I am a reality tv tragic too though lol - but there is some I just will not watch ...I honestly do not know how some people can do what they do in front of the whole world

Re: All Things Sport...

Oh wow another Taswegian....how cool is that, was wondering if there were any........I had a gut feeling you were in the south for some reason, have no idea why @Zoe7 . I am a northerner...............and nice to hear that there are more of us here as well........thanks for the info.

Yes how annoying is that changing of footy leagues in this state....does your head in. I have never followed local footy. I live right near 'Hawk park' as they call it. go past it everyday on my way to work. When St Kilda played here too my Mum and I (she follows the Saints) would go to the footy all the time. My best mate and I went to the very first AFL match played at the ground between the Hawks and the Crows. was a great day. I would love to have an AFL team here too......I would follow them too but my first team will always be Carlton. If I changed that my beloved Pop would turn over in his grave lol. I followed Carlton because he did....we were very close.

Yeah Carlton's list is getting better. I am hoping we start playing consistent footy real soon. Been a long time since we were a powerhouse and I miss it greatly.

lol I know right!!!! don't people realise how much of an idiot they look on reality tv lol.

i really only watch the block and that is about it. i think the majority of people go on them hoping they will become tv stars..........

I really hope you enjoy your day tomorrow @Scarecrowe ...I suspect now I will have one eye on the result to see how Ford went lol

Been loving chatting to you too and even better to know we have another Taswegian amongst our midst. Catch you next time mate 👍

Hey @MDT Not much happening for me tonight - nothing on tv but cleaning up a lot of my saved files on my desktop - been at it all afternoon lol What are you up to?

In response to: Re: All Things Sport...

Re: All Things Sport...

Been out since 2pm @Zoe7
Was good to catch up with people. Went to some German places themed for Octoberfest and then a fabcy whisky bar in the city. Was a good afternoon out. Ended up talking with my friend about relationships and dating. It's hard regardless of how well one may be doing in life.
People are complex creatures.
He said ill get there one day which I believe is true. But I am presently thinking of getting back into the dating scene. But unsure yer

Re: All Things Sport...

Do what feels right for you when it feels right @MDT There is certainly no rush and people are indeed complex creatures. So good that you had a good afternoon though and had a nice chat with friend also. Much on tomorrow?
