Chess is about as much a sport as darts, or snooker, or pool, or golf!

darts are considered a sport if you are the target .
snooker i dont know what that is
pool is awesome especially if money are involved
golf is a stupid gay game

Snooker is about as gay as you can get!

Its sorta like pool, but no yellow balls, well one yellow ball, and one blue one, one pink one, one black one, one green one, one brown one and loads of red ones.

Pot a red and you allowed to pot a colour, different colours have different values, then once all reds are gone pot all colours in specific order!

anyone here doing martial arts ??

[Desley]

I used to practice Judo for a few years if that counts?

[goro]

judo?dont know much about it.its a sort of wrestling somehow?

[emotion_name]

I did Karate for years as a kid, then as a teen i did some Tae Kwon Do!

Now i try and do a bit of boxing if i can, not a martial art, but a gentlemens art!


EDIT

Wow, mentioning Karate takes me back!

Shoto Kan Karate at Zan Shin Kai of Wales, and my trainer was an ass! If you couldnt do splits all the way, he would sweep your leg out from under you! Bastard!

[Desley]

Hmmm, well, i can spar for about 14 or 15 rounds, but i wouldnt say that im sprightly and light on my feet for about 12 or 13 of them!

I had a few amateur fights, little 8 rounders, nothing major.

I was more your plant my feet and tee off on your head kind of puncher, which meant i got danced around a lot, and spent a lot of time punching thin air!

Im not sure how they dance in Wales.. but this sure aint dancing!

Thats exactly how the women dance in wales, with their children!


Nah, i know Judo is very good for balance and power. The WRU makes the Welsh Rugby Team learn it to help improve there all round game!

Tea Kwon Do is similar to Judo, as in there are a few throws involved, more so than Karate, but a lot more kicks and stuff!

Do you love sheep, welshy?

Indeed i do!

I used to own a sheep farm, well, my family did and when i inherited it i tried making a go of it, but damn its hard work and pay, so i abandoned the country and moved to the city, about 10 minutes away from Millenium Stadium!


Right now im wondering if its below the belt to ask if you like swimming, considering the weather in your country right now

[Desley]

I would consider it below the belt lol since there are massive floods in Australia atm

guessed so.dancing and generally being the attacker can be very tiring.i remember first time i got in for practice i couldnt move my feet after third round.still the practice in boxing is one of the toughest ive been in.good teacher but very strict.the punches in the face ive eaten in order to put my hands correctly while hitting and drawing back and defending are countless

[Visorslash]

And I live near em. Yeah, flood water swimming is actually quite fun.

[emotion_name]

Thats why i asked!

Thing is though, in all seriousness aussies have rich history in the water at Olympics! Seriously!

I remember they had this one guy who was like size 17 shoe and had webbed toes! How the hell do you a beat a guy in a swimming race when he has permanent flippers on?

[Desley]

I have family living in Australia btw.. havent seen them in 8 years.. I whonder if they are still alive..

[Visorslash]

With a hammer.

Hey goro, did you know that greeks invented sex, but Italy took it to women? . it's a good joke in aus. It also goes on about wales/nz with sheep as well.
