Anyone in the Mount Juliet area using TDS know if they plan on having the SEC network? I haven't checked or even thought about it yet.

Agree. The secn has all of the leverage or the south. Waiting will only hurt the providers. Kind of sad that they don't see that

Makes me laugh. It'll even be funnier when Direct overpays a lot when DISH was smart enough to get it earlier for cheaper. Don't we love economics.

Two people or teams. So skeeball is a sport then? So is playing call of duty by that definition. It requires hand-eye coordination, thumb agility, and concentration.

I would not consider CoD a sport but some people might. Skeeball on the other hand does use levels of stregnth and agility. I doubt the Professional Skeeball Association (PSBA) is gonna lobby for Olympic status anytime soon and I doubt they get much tv air time. I don't get "The Ocho" though so I could be wrong.

1. an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature, as racing, baseball, tennis, golf, bowling, wrestling, boxing, hunting, fishing, etc.

Thumb agility, and the stamina to never stop. Call of duty people also need mental strength to concentrate. I'm actually starting to agree with Hemingway.

You can turn any type of game into a sport. Like competitive dip spitting.

Now that we have this awesome thread, I can drop in here with a World Cup preview and no one can complain. For the soccer lovers, :hi: For the haters, :Bbiteme:

Group A: Brazil, Croatia, Mexico, Cameroon.
Brazil is the obvious pick to win the group. Who will finish 2nd? Croatia and Mexico have talent, but are flawed sides. I'll give the advantage to Mexico since the World Cup is in the Western Hemisphere and the Mexicans will have lots of crowd support.

Group B: Spain, Netherlands, Chile, Australia
Probably the toughest group as any of Spain, Netherlands, and Chile could win the group. I'm gonna predict Spain crashes out since they have 2 sides in the Champions League final and may come in tired. 1st place: Dutch, 2nd place: Chile. Australia has no chance.

Group C: Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan.
Really interesting group. Columbia has been playing well so I'll take them to win the group. Greece doesn't have enough ability to score and Ivory Coast hardly plays to their potential. I'll take Japan to finish the group in 2nd.

Group D: Uruguay, Costa Rica, England, Italy
Can England advance out of this group? I don't think so. I'll take Italy to win the group, followed by Uruguay in 2nd.

Group E: Switzerland, Ecuador, France, Honduras
How lucky can France get? They go from on the cusp of not making the World Cup to drawing the easiest group. France will win the group, and I'll take Honduras as a surprise 2nd place finisher. Honduras is an athletic team and I don't believe Switzerland and Ecuador can score enough.

Group F: Argentina, Bosnia, Iran, Nigeria
Argentina wins the group followed by Bosnia. Bosnia is a good side and will give teams trouble in this tournament.

Group G: Germany, Portugal, Ghana, USA
Germany wins the group. USA gets revenge on Ghana and holds down Ronaldo to take that 2nd spot. I'm a homer, can't pick any different.

Group H: Belgium, Algeria, Russia, Korea
For those who don't know, Belgium is stacked. They win the group followed by Russia.

Brazil is too young and there is too much pressure to win the World Cup on home soil, IMO. I'll take Argentina to win the whole thing. Lukaku from Belgium will win the golden boot.

I hate to stay off topic, but bodybuilding is one of the hardest sports there is. You have to be mentally tough, physically tough, and smart. To formulate a diet plan and keep yourself from eating bad food is a lot harder than it seems. Grilled chicken, eggs, broccoli makes up around 75% of your diet. Don't forget, you're not eating grilled chicken with honey mustard or, God forbid, ranch. Broccoli without butter and minimal salt. Egg whites. And that's just a little bit of the diet part. Then you actually have to cook it, meal prep, and actually lift weights. Just my .02 cents.

And on top of all that, you have to find about 10 hours a night of sleep.

First off, you should email me your "demands" or use the contact us button if you have an issue in the future. Second, it was mod error and was reversed as soon as it was given. Sorry. I've erased it from your permanent record. :)

My most sincere apologies, our well-qualified leader. I was only joking about the demanding part anyway, I was just confused as to how/why that would happen lol we're good then. :good!: No harm no foul. Thanks for the clarification sir.
