No Cheerleaders or Beer Commecials and no bantering with opposing team fans!!!
Me and my cycling buddies talk about the Tour everyday. There is Foster's commercials as well

Well, y'all should be happy then that the Americans are doing so well! :D

For the record, I'm a football fan as well but live in the moment and there's more exciting cycling going on than football.

. . . . and I found great humor in the list . . . .

I'm not into golf, so I usually don't watch any of either one.

Cool list though!

BTW--LIPH- The Ace has a monthly trivia game. One of the picture rounds was a "Name that team"- Only instead of uniforms, it was the cheerleaders! And our sports expert is female, so we pretty much tanked on that one!

Coco --
The firm has a "summer outing" every year and 2 years ago they rented the ESPNZone restaurant in Times Square. I was sitting at the bar with a couple of my co-workers talking sports and the bartender, thinking he was an expert, decided he wanted to play sports trivia with us. After I got the first 10 questions right he gave up. I'm full of useless information. Among other things. :lol:

We do trivia also almost every tuesday down in the village. Good Times. I am the teams sports expert so I'm sure we would've done fine on the cheerleaders questions.

It seems like a lot of parrotheads are trivia buffs. The place I play aspires to be a dive bar, and gets really crowded on Trivia Nite (and it is just regular players that are the quizmasters, not NTN or anything high tech- the answer sheets are half sheets of notebook paper). This bar feels like Cheers to me.
