January 27, 200719 yr Is the Super Adventure Club a sporting association (he asked not expecting the answer yes)? <_< OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
January 27, 200719 yr No, I believe that that is the Adventure Club. The Super Adventure Club is much, much different.
January 27, 200719 yr I've never played competitive sports, except the mandatory bits in school and such...just not into that sort of competition at all. Sometimes fun to watch, but otherwise... Biking, hiking/packing, & dancing were my things in teens/20's. Ballroom dancing in particular I really enjoyed it, and did a few local shows - nothing major, just for fun. My 30's tho...not a whole lot, honestly, besides sex and short walk/hikes in nearby parks and the exercycle...and lately, a lot of upper-torso strength/flexibilty exercises. Yoga is probably in my future. Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.
January 27, 200719 yr Hmmm, back trouble and no sporting / exercise in your 30s ... do we see a connection? OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
January 27, 200719 yr Hmmm, back trouble and no sporting / exercise in your 30s ... do we see a connection? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My back trouble comes from attempting to shovel snow that's 80% water. That stuff is really, really heavy.
January 27, 200719 yr Yeah, that's more a basic understanding of physics (moments of force about a hinge joint) ... so I'd blame your science teacher (or you, if you didn't pay attention). OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
January 27, 200719 yr I got a B+ on my physics mid-term. I was pretty, and happy.

One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

January 27, 200719 yr Yeah, but not because of my knowledge of physics. I don't relly do physical labor.

January 27, 200719 yr Hmmm, back trouble and no sporting / exercise in your 30s ... do we see a connection? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hey now, I didn't say "no exercise" - I said not much. But the back trouble actually started when I slipped in the bathtub several years ago - twice, on two seperate occasions close together - and butt-slid backwards into the tub faucet, hitting almost the exact same spot on my upper spine both times. It was freaky and painful but I thought nothing of it until a week later when I was flat on my back. heh Since then it's been downhill from there. But yes, I'm sure lack of torso muscles makes it much more likely for it to "go out" on me etc. - one of those idiotic cycles of "my back hurts/don't exercise" and "back doesn't hurt/exercise...oops the back went out again" things. Even when I was supposedly very fit, I've always been about aerobic/legs, not arms and torso. Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.

January 30, 200718 yr Thanks, I'm not sleeping for a week now.Bathtub accidents give you nightmares? Nah, poker is a game. Like video games or Scrabble. I agree. I like those poker tournaments, but imo that doesn't make it a sport. Still gaming with my 9900k/2080ti/32 ram. One day I suppose a game may inspire me to finally upgrade. Maybe.
January 30, 200718 yr My sarcasm was wasted It was a facetious comment since Poker Tournaments are shown on channels such as ESPN. If being shown on ESPN is all it takes to be a sport (according to that one chap), then Poker must be a sport! I do not feel that poker is a sport, and the logic used to denote that if something is shown on a sports channel, it must be a sport is false. Sportsdesk is a Sport!
