Duuude... Jesse THE BODY Ventura could take Ahnold ANY DAY!

Because he's Jesse... THE BODY Ventura. And he was a Navy Seal! He told me so when he was shaking hands at the U of MN before he got elected. :D

Course, he's not the governer anymore. :p But he was THE BEST!

Had to vote Steelers... or I can't go to my friends house for the Super Bowl :/

Dana · January 26, 2006, 07:11:59 PM

I vote for the Seahawks because I'm a West Coast-er :D

And Becki, that's very cool you're related to the Rock! 8)

Football is silly! I only like it because lots of people stay home to watch games and make it easier to get around during football season if you time it right. :p

Now Tennis. That's a sport I can appreciate. *g* Where's all the Boris Becker love, huh?

Eimi · January 26, 2006, 09:15:56 PM

Tennis? OMG you did NOT just say Tennis is a more interesting sport than football. Football at least has hot bodies in tight pants! What the heck? Tennis? I would rather watch CURLING than Tennis!

(Ok, yes, I actually did enjoy watching curling on the Canadian channel during the last winter Olympics...)

PastMember · January 26, 2006, 09:17:37 PM

haha I'm with Eimi. I would definetley take curling over tennis anyday:)

My favourite curling moment from the last olympics was actually during a mens hockey game. The Latvian fans were holding signs telling the Canadian players to "Go Curl".

Yvonne · January 26, 2006, 09:55:56 PM

*dies* I love Canada and our curling. ;)

Although my favourite tv sport to watch (even MORE than hockey! *gasp!*) is professional ping-pong. Seriously. Those guys are frigging HARD CORE.

That, and I like watching the kayaking.

Paula · January 26, 2006, 10:43:26 PM

oh, come now, curling? the floor sweeping game? I mean, who comes up with these games?

Now, ice hockey, that's something!

Eimi · January 27, 2006, 06:23:15 AM

Ice hockey isn't bad. I like ice hockey. I always meant to get over to a Seattle Thunderbirds game, or a Spokane Chiefs game (they're minor league), or up to BC for a Canuks game. Thats one I'll watch during the Olympics.

Table tennis, yeah, they're hardcore, but is it really all that interesting to watch for a long time? And Kayaking just sounds like watching NASCAR which I would rather take a gun to my head that watch. Kayaking would be fun to do thought.... Or a marathon. Why would you want to watch a marathon on TV?

Now, bobsleding is fun to watch. I enjoy bobsledding and luge (I don't know how to spell that one...)... You never know when someone will take a nasty tumble!

Bree · January 27, 2006, 07:04:02 AM

LOL! Yes... I remember now! There IS something I find as boring as football! Nascar! Which is a problem since I live in Alabama, where football and Nascar are like, the two most popular things EVER. :p

I will admit that tennis is less exciting now than it was back in the days when the MacEnroe brothers were playing. And Jimmy Connors. And back when Agassi was a rebel! Man, they were FUN! :D Back when it was skill and speed and placement instead of thwacking the ball as hard as you can.

Hockey, on the other hand.... mmmmm. I have a weakness for college hockey. Go Maine Black Bears! Hockey is an awesome to watch. Hockey is what football should be. :D

*decides to stick with real, proper football and wanders off to study the draw for Euro 2008*

PastMember · January 29, 2006, 10:14:55 AM

My boyfriend is a HUGE Steelers fan so he had been celebrating for a while now. I believe it was his birthday actually when the Steelers won their game and he found out they were going to the SuperBowl. Now, I honestly really don't know ANYTHING about football. I'm really in baseball though so that is another story.

Anyways, I voted for the Steelers because my boyfriend would have a heartattack if I didn't.

PastMember · January 29, 2006, 11:59:35 AM

There wasn't a "I haven't paid attention, didn't even know who was playing, so therfore I don't know/care who wins" :P So I voted for the "hell froze over" one hehe

Eimi · January 29, 2006, 04:22:52 PM

Ahem... Sunrose... As I told Paula, all "I don't care votes" fall under the "I have to say the Seahawks or Eimi might use her evil plotting skills against me...." option... :twisted:

Bree · January 29, 2006, 04:44:40 PM

Poor Eimi... what would you have done if you met me a few years ago when I didn't know which sport the Superbowl even was? :p

*petpet*
