    The reverse is aso true. During the last Olympics, I watched hockey and found it far more interesting and exciting than American football or baseball.

        Ottok was a finnish(?) apolytoner whose english was so bad that it was hard to figure out what he was trying to say. Some people were rather hard on him, and he went away.
        The first President of the first Apolyton Democracy Game (CivII, that is)

                Bullfight WRONG! Bullfight bad! The poor animal doesn't stand a chance and they don't even make kosher hamburgers with it!

                  Which reminds me, I played roller hockey once... I'm no sports fan, but it was great.

                  Rugby is good too... intense to watch. Though I stay away from it as much as I can at school.

                      Nah, onlu in Mexico and Spain I think.

                      There's a bullfight type of thing in the northwest here, but it's without picadors, banderilleros and matadors, just toreadors with capes.

                        There are bullfights also in France, Portugal, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Peru. Probably some other smaller countries as well. In Portugal the bull is not killed -- that's why all the Portuguese matadors cross the border .

                        TJ's bullfights are... ehm, entertaining The best by far and large is the spectators

                                In Portugal the bull is not killed
                                It is not killed in the bullring, but it is killed five minutes later, in the corrals, furtively
