Red Ring Tupperware Party, Autumnal Equinoctal Edition (24)

JJ is wondering why Mel is referring to Mel in the third person. JJ thinks it's creepy.

Moose sees not a thing wrong with it.

All the best people do it.

Mel always knows when the SuperBowl is on, and who is playing. Had a couple of parties to choose between, but ended up staying home due to the weather. Mel also understands the game.

Traci does not understand the game, hasn't really tried either.

Now I did go shoot a cheer leading event Friday evening at a high school basketball game. That was really kinda fun to watch.

Does sound like fun. What gear did you use? ISO? Shutter speed?

I've always liked sports, but I'm not obsessed with them. The one that I follow the most is NASCAR. Lots of people "hate" NASCAR, but I think it's mostly because they don't understand (haven't tried to understand) all the technical aspects of the sport. It's so much more involved than just driving around in circles.

Sports that I do not understand, simply because I haven't made the effort to figure them out, are Cricket and Rugby. I've watched rugby, but haven't been able to figure it out much. Cricket just baffles me. I think I try to relate it to baseball too much.

I simply do not enjoy soccer at all. Playing or watching.

I like watching NFL games, and some tennis, like Wimbledon or some of the opens. Other than that, not much. Baseball is a huge bore to me, and I never cared for soccer or hockey. Not a big fan of NASCAR, either. I'd rather watch open-wheel racing for some reason.

Olympics. I can watch me some Olympics.

The method of watching makes a huge difference. I hate watching baseball on TV, but love to sit outside and watch a local game. Hockey I'll take either way. I like most forms of auto racing and would definitely go to a track and watch live. Local football is nice to watch in person, but I don't know if I'd like a NFL game live, the stadiums are just so big. I went to a CFL game at a small stadium and it was decent, but I like the overhead, up close view that TV offers.

Olympics are always wonderful. Especially when Canada beats USA in hockey!!

We let you win in the interest of good national relations

Um, yeah, ok.

I think they need a rectangle track. Just to mix it up. Also implement a roundabout for pit row.

Baseball is great to watch when you need to take a nap or at least that's what my FIL use to do. Turn on a game. Asleep in 10 minutes and wake up in the ninth all refreshed.

Well Indianapolis is pretty much a rectangle, and the paperclip tracks are nearly roundabouts. I'd like to see a figure 8 track.

Chetster....they have a rectangle track....see Mel's post ^^^About the only way to make it more rectangular would be to sign Square D as the sponsor.
