The players wear protective gear... a helmet and a mouthguard to keep your teeth in your mouth are acceptable, but the way I see it any man wearing more than that while playing a game is a chickenshit

So canucks suck and didn't invent anything.

Basketball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Get your facts straight allstar, he was a professor at McGill University which is Oh WOW in Canada

[OTTER]

Yeah, you're stupid allstar (well no, you got the guy's name right ). There is of course, controversy whether or not Hockey was invented in Canada or Virginia (I believe) but I'm fairly certain we invented that too.

Hockey
Lacrosse
Basketball

Sit nub.

And no silen, I'm pretty sure that I meant BASKETBALL, but thanks for putting words in my mouth.

I'm not talking about crying (literally anyway, I mean metaphorically), I'm talking about being babies when they get barely touched. And I'm not denying soccer plays don't do it either, it's probably worse. However I enjoy PLAYING soccer.

**** basketball. Basketball sucks. Nobody likes basketball, and for good reason. Everytime I see basketball, no matter how levelheaded and unbiased about the world I am...all I see when I watch basketball is 10 black guys (or in my gym class, 10 white guys) running around with an orange ball and acting tough like they ghetto rich from the hood...g.

Why not go outside onto the grass and play football instead? Football's a REAL sport. It's precise, it's hard hitting, it's awesome. I remember the last Superbowl when me and a couple friends got drunk and played tackle football on the street...and when the cops came to break it up (a neighbor thought we were fighting), he let us play out of LOVE OF THE GAME!

So in conclusion, Basketball < Football < Mixed Martial Arts!

...Mouth guards are used to prevent concusions.

Even with the shoulder pads, there still isn't that much protection considering the pads are less than an inch thick.

I agree with Allstar on this one and sometimes it seems like the Canadians on these forums just have to take a stand against everything American. I could be wrong but whenever Americans say something that isn't totally black and white we are wrong and our parents are ugly. Then whenever a Canadian says something that isn't black and white and Americans challange it we suck and we are fat. Please people cant we all just get along. Just click a little button and say whether you play basketball not whether you like it.

And if you flame this post...

Your opinions are idiotic
Your ideas sound like they came from a 14 year old anarexic girl on crack
Your body odor leaves much to be desired
and...

your parents are ugly.


I just realized you cant detect sarcasm in text so just to be sure I am kidding about the last part.

[Tuhan]

All depends on who you're playing with in my opinion that makes the game...
