Can't we all just get along? I think "y'all" are spreading some serious stereotypes commonly rehearsed, taught, and accepted by a very small, and very vocal "group" for lack of a better phrase.

Like I said. ....we have to keep in mind that this is all BS....and just ribbing.....I'm certainly not going to be offended. ....and don't intend to offend anyone else. ......
And like I said. ....the minute this goes past that. ...It's all over. ...
But Felineman is a big guy.....I'm sure he can take it....and dish it out....I'm actually impressed how well he's doing. ....considering his lack of brain cells. ....

Gotta admit I find this hilarious. Y'all hear what these guys are talkin' about or are y'all deaf and just sayin', "Eh?"

I've lost interest with insulting Poboy how can you insult someone without a clue?

That was the whole idea. .....It's supposed to be funny and ridiculous. ....
Of course that's easy with Felineman. .....he's just naturally ridiculous. .....
And I have a clue. ......I forget what it is right now......but it will come to me. .....maybe......

You know. ..I have kidded around and called hockey a sissy sport and stuff.....but it's actually my second favorite sport.....and I am so glad that they brought back the shootout.
But tonight is draft pick night for my favorite sport.......Cowboys don't get to pick until 16.........

Oh, you wanna talk about sissy sports? AMERICAN FOOTBALL! All those big tough guys in their padding & helmets; I've heard American football players say that Rugby players are just plain nuts...
About a month ago, a rugby league (one of four football codes played in Australia) player was incorrectly & illegally dropped on his head during a tackle (NO PADDING, NO HELMET) which resulted in a broken neck, ending his career & leaving him a quadraplegic.
What was his reaction when he awoke from his coma? "Meh, you get that..."

And your point is. ......??????? We all talk safety here....especially helmets. .....so what makes rugby players any better than idiots? And American football started out with leather helmets and very little padding.....Ummm.....we just got smarter. .......
The world is full of dead and crippled tough guys.......

My point is you referred to hockey as "a sissy sport", IMO, American football is "a sissy sport"...
Obviously, you haven't seen the new Australian Tourism campaign; in a nutshell, it goes a bit like "come to Australia, where the wildlife will kill you"...
You talk about hunting deer, elk, quails, turkeys, etc, we hunt everyday... in our own backyards; funnel web spiders, red back spiders, brown snakes, red belly black snakes; four of the deadliest creatures on the planet & all native to Australia; our lives are in peril every time we walk out our back door, endangered by predators we can't even see until it's too late but, to us, it's just part of life...
...& don't get me started on 'gators; a large alligator is 14', that's about average for an Aussie croc...
Fact: The largest alligator ever caught was 19.2' long; the largest crocodile ever caught alive was 20.2'...
My point is you say Texans are tough, Felineman says Canucks are tough, I say you're all wimps & Aussies are just born tougher...

As far a sissy sport
American football is certainly up there
Ice hockey looks like a bloody tough sport
Although Iv never played it
Being as we're sort of short on ice
Afl nfl and rugby league are all "tough" is where he's going with this
It's just a thing that Aussies think when we look at the sports being played across the lake
The only thing I don't really like about American football though is the ten spent aging as apose to the time setting up/talking and so on
EDIT
Thanks for deleting the double

Fabro please man this coming form someone that drinks Homer Simpson beer and lives in holes in the desert. All we need is you screaming ALI AKBAR and waving your native spears around. Rugby was never a sport just like soccer or even lawn bowling. When you see then in the Olympics then they are a sport. HOCKEY is a sport. EH!
I agree. We have to dodge wild animals on the way to work too.
The scariest thing that the Americas have is probably the Couger, and that is not as impressive as some of the animals we all haveI see that rugby sevens are going to be played at the 2016 Olympics

really?
yes i spend half my time in holes in a desert its very hot and dusty
theres loads of big creatures eating the rocks
i look after these creatures
some of these holes in the ground have a higher turnover than your average 1st world government
and the rocks we bring out make your world what it is
you do relise ice hockey is a off shoot of field hockey that we play a fair bit over here
exept ice hockey u put on 4xl shirts and beat each other with sticks while sliding around
also unlike american football and ice hockey rugby and field hockey are global
lastly
whats Homer Simpson beer
if your referring to fosters
aussie beer drinking is second only to Germany (exept a bit more unruly)
we haven't got any to spare
so we have to export the crap
thereby u guys get fosters because no one over here will touch it
EDIT
on the animals
id say landuse has the best collection
but ours tend to get u without u even seeing them
very sad case in point
a freind of ours was out for a run, young girl of 17
she never returned
they found her dead collapsed in the gutter on the farm
no health issues
no injuries
post Mortimer performed nothing wrong with internal organs but cause of death was hearth attack
blood test returns
tiger snake got her
look at post mortimer again
two mosquito bites on ankle
she had been running along and stepped on or kicked a snake
snake bit her
didnt even know, just kept running, running caused the blood to pump around faster
poison reached heart and she just collapsed and never got up
I think this thread hads run its course. It is bringing nothing to the forum and there is the potential for it to get nasty. Why should we as mods just sit around waiting for it to happen.
Case closed. South Africa wins
Just joking.....
