OOO Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Ok... Interesting picture of the Korean peninsula. What does it represent and what is its significance in this ass whip of a thread? Its taken from a satellite image of Korea at night...You can see where the lights (modern civilization) are. It was a little jab at whoever was saying how great "communism" ends up working out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beltmann Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 That sports appeal predominately to males, to me, suggests that a spiritual connection may be overstated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 okay, replace the world series w/ the Super Bowl and for worldwide appeal of professional atheltics, change it w/ the World Cup... Just to give you an idea of the scope of the World Cup, let us compare it to American football Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest j.bickerson Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Of course it's not universal--what is? Tolstoy? Wilco? Jackson Pollock? Some people don't like Pollock, but that doesn't diminish his ability to inspire others. Likewise, the fact that some people don't connect to sports doesn't mean it has no inspirational value, all it means is that everyone finds inspiration in their own way. If sports works for many people, that automatically validates its spiritual and inspirational appeal. If you are going to rule out baseball because "women" don't enjoy it--which is a dubious generalization is ever there was one--then you must also rule out the inspirational value of any activity that doesn't connect with "everyone." I guess that rules out ace electricians, too. I'm willing to allow that excellent plumbers and electricians have the potential to inspire certain human beings; are you willing to allow that athletes have the same potential? are you insane?

EL the Famous Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 j nick, one other thing, in the thread about the writer's strike, you stated that you were 100% behind the writer's demands and rationale for the strike...isn't the amount of money that the writers are paid, it's the percentage that they receive when their products are sold or distributed. how is it that youre 100% for that concept and not backing the same thing for an athelete? are TV writers more important than plumbers? the advertsing revenue generated from TV shows that this requested % comes out to is conceivably more than a nurse or the humble garbageman makes...isn't that wrong?

Good Old Neon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 of course I do...because you know everything, including how many hours i spend on the internet versus time spent on actual business. and it's not like your there to issue an immediate response to each and every post. please. well, i posted those ratings to illustrate how many people would rather watch baseball on TV than plumbing. throw in the amount that are actually at the stadium and/or watching it in a public place like a bar or restaraunt. do you want to change the example from baseball to worldwide futbol viewship and/or attendance? i posted those ratings to illustrate how many people would rather watch baseball than plumbing...but you can interchange that w/ any sport you like in or outside the US.  are you trying to tell me that 283 million people are paying to watch plumbing instead of the world series? you keep denying that the overall sport is generating enough money based on it's perceived value (AKA importance) to afford these player salaries w/ $ to spare. that's cold, hard data that to a lot of other people other than you...it's important. No El, this is another example of me trying to make a point, and you staring at my finger.

Good Old Neon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 no, if i wanted to be nitpicky i would say that i wasn't insinuating, but stating a fact that a staggering amount of people would watch a professional athelete over a plumber... And an even greater number of people would enjoy watching a porn starlet in action Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wendy Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Hookers again. Every thread that veers vastly off topic always ends up being about hookers. What's up with that?   I can lock this thread if it's lost its meaning. The original poster, Treehugger something, would likely never do that since he likes to argue around and around etc. A lot.  What say you all? Edit: OK, hookers or porn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
