Who can think of more? :) :twisted:

(Yes, I am scaring myself with this. But the very idea of the First of the Search in a cheerleading outfit is too good to forget. Then again, I think she'd be too inclined to start hacking away at the opposing team, and the referee would prolly be too afraid to call it a foul.)

Wait for it
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Oh no, oh no. No no no no. NO
Aussie rules football is better than American football? Next you're going to tell me soccer is better than football ( I won't even demean the word by placing "Australian rules" in front of it :lol: )
At the moment one, ONE, aussie player is in the NFL. He is a punter. That means he is in maybe ten plays a game and he almost never gets hit.
We don't wear anything close to 50lbs. of pads. Besides we only have to wear all that because we are REAL :D athletes who can run, hit, and throw.
If my Philadelphia Eagles were to exhibition ANY aussie team with or without pads they would utterly annihilate them. Too much bigger, too much faster, too much stronger to even be a game.
Its not hard to understand either.

I can't picture the First as a cheerleader! She would be a tackle or a guard! She is too tough to be on the sidelines! The Ramen would be the receivers and no one but Mhoram could be the quarterback. I don't see where poor TC could fit into any position - unless, of course, he uses white gold!

Sorry to rain on your parade, but what do you suppose is the most watched sport in the world?

I'll give you a clue, it's not American Football.

Don't worry basketball and American Football are gaining the most popularity in the world and will overtake it soon enough. Its not their fault they just didn't know there was anything else to watch. :D
