The same goes for the NBA


Judging from the past couple of Olympics I'm not sure a really good
European team couldn't beat our hothouse orchids.


Look back at the year we sent our really GOOD NBA players. And that was
basicly a pick-up team. Take one of the teams any any of the big three
sports that has been playing an practicing together all year and many the
foreign ass will be waxed.



And before anyone says anything it isn't because the US is better. We just
put a lot of money into the programs.

Cute.

For some reason i seem to recall many pilots moaning about all the little
carts driving porky pilots around Oshkosh this summer. Maybe there s/b an
award for that too!

But some of the Euro-trash squads receive government subsidies!

Which is not exactly something to be proud of IMHO.

Nah. I compete in real sports, and don't need to get my adrenaline kicks
by flying little planes in search of $150 hamburgers while wondering why
I'm so obese......


Blimey, your a charmer aren't you, what sports would they be?

( A little time on the treadmill instead of the yoke might help a little.)

As 2005, a very eventful year for GA, nears an end, I'd like to ask all the
pilots here to consider having a Troll of the Year award.

Judging criteria might include the troll's:
- persistance
- ability to annoy large groups of GA pilots on a variety of topics
- understanding of the problems that GA is experiencing, and using them
to advantage
- lack of personal attacks
- being impervious to threats made by certain pilots
- sense of humour
- etc.

I humbly nominate myself, and I thank you for your consideration.


You're disqualified by the third criterion.

Hi Ice. I noticed the wonderful reception you got here when you talked
about starting training. Best of luck!! But, decide first if you really
have the time to devote -- flying just isn't for amateurs -- and what u
wanna do with your ticket. If its just to fly around looking for spots to
eat and refuel, I think its weird, but to each her own! Just please don't
wake up the whole damned neighborhood while your getting your kicks.

My sports: amateur mogul skiing comps, some NASTAR, tennis, mountain
biking. (I wonder why anyone who has had the experience of carving a
perfect turn, or cutting the line thru the bumps right down the fall line,
wouldn't immediately decide that nothing else in the world could possibly
top this, especially something passive that requires use of an engine.
Ski areas bring enormous economnic benefits to areas in which they are
located. I believe my season passes s/b govt. subsidized. ;-) )

OK then. how 'bout the guy who posted the concert schedule at the former
Megis Field? I think he is a contender.
