Btw, could you please explain why is hockey stupid, or how could be any sports "stupid" for that matter?

I dunno just is. Always looked so funny too me. But mostly because it's Canadian and reminds me of my boyfriend and I like too make fun of him when he acts stereotypical Canadian. Not because I think I'm superior, just for shits and giggles.

I heard Jamacia had a bob sled team once, and they made it to the Winter Olypmics!

Personally I think it is not out of the question. I voted maybe. There are some tall Japanese, actually there are quite a few guys over 6 foot. But yes, it is not as common as blacks and whites. Still, Japan has little sport grounds for kids to practice games such as football and criket, so ball games played there are mostly going to be on concrete, so I dunno, that is why Americans took off in basketball, maybe are Japanese kids playing it already anyway?

Have you got any logic or facts to back up your statements?

And the fact is that they did fairly good there... they beat such giants as USSR and USA in the '88 olympics. But i still don't see bob sledge tracks nowhere in Africa... Yes, of course, there have ben, are and will be exclusions and people who strive to conquer new heights, but that still won't get Africa to be covered in snow and ice X)

I didn't know I needed facts for having an opinion.
No , I don't. It's very simple. I don't like it.
Kinda like how I don't like the color yellow on houses or chipped black nail polish.
Or the myspace angles. Or this pink cup I'm drinking from.
It's a matter of opinion not science. I'm not going to give myself a scientific explanation or list of facts every time I dislike this or that. Much less you. Sorry : (

Then could you do everyone a favor and word your "opinion" in a way that represents that it is a opinion and not a statement, that could require a reasoning and facts behind it in order to avoid unpleasant misunderstandings and/or arguments.

Or you could not look to deep into something before someone has a chance to react to it negatively.
