    So apparently Bernie is targeting the Area 51 flash mob.  Promises to release any info on aliens and ufo's if elected.

    Or maybe he should try selling it so he can pay for all his free shit.

    Rogan asked him if he became president and gained knowledge of aliens would he announce it on his show. It was the close of the episode, he said yes....jokingly.

  • Fwiw I played a shit load of video games when I played baseball and hoops in the 90s. Also got a trophy for every season of little league regardless of record. 

    People (parents, kids, the community) seem to just care less from my personal experience.

    What is there to refute?  Otrap already laid it out - there's plenty of sports that don't require a big financial commitment. 

    The cost of travel ball DOES NOT prohibit people from playing a sport.  Why don't you refute that?

    But you don't think cost is a factor at all?

    Where I grew up it's 100% on the parents/towns not giving a shit anymore, especially in baseball and basketball. Of the public fields/courts I grew up playing all have gone to shit except one of each off the top of my head. 

     

    Somewhat off topic, but anyone familiar with involving their kids in dance? I have a friend with two daughters who participate. Crazy amounts for an activity.

  • Why is this in the politics forum?

    And yes, playing sports costs money, especially non-school focused club teams.

    I wanted to play club ice hockey when I was like 12-13. I went to a few open practices, discussed the cost and ice time schedules. My parents then told me to find something else I enjoyed. LOL

    Never did WV but did Ohio Pyle on the Ohio PA border once. Was really fun.

    Same here. I went when I was around 15. Had a blast. Also went on some great scenic bike trails.

  • People who are ski/snowboard without actually KNOWING how to ski/snowboard. Fucking hell, teach yourself how to do it before you bomb yourself down the hill like a jackass.

    People who walk across the entire sidewalk allowing no room to pass. Basically slow walkers in general are terrible.

    Vegans who don't STFU

  • We don't have a general music thread?

  • I was just good, never elite. The gap between the two is significant. 

    I played in a 40 man tournament in 2009 and got 8th. It was a mix of casual players, good players (like me) and fucking badasses. I got knocked out by a badass and it wasn't even close. Absolutey destroyed.

    I was ranked in the world top 500 in FIFA at one time. I had over 500 wins. I played wayyyy too much.
