Let's see... A baseball game lasts about 2 and a half hoursmy god are you watching baseball on tivo with fastforward?! 2 and a half hours?! not in this universe. 4-4:30 is the norm.
with football(the real one) you get 2 halves, 45min of nonstop gameplay.
how the fuck can anybody call that boring?!
watching somebody polish their bat for 5min before taking 1 swing is not boring!? stopping a game so that a team of hulks can pat each other on the butts before they play for 5sec is not boring?!
anybody who thinks that baseball or american eggball are more exciting than football are crazy.
and don't get me started on circle racing, aka nascar. at least formula1 changes things up a bit with left AND right turns.
Gay McDonald's ad in France
So McDonalds is liberal now? :-/
These guys would show someone watching Nascar and beating their dog (which might work in some places) if it sold more Big Macs. While it's nice that we're in a place culturally that facilitates this as a message that will move product, don't think that they care about you.

SWAT A-Holes Murder Pets In Front Of Kids
There's not much more I can add to what John Cole said:
Not much I can add other than I'd be out for blood if anyone shot either of my dogs too.
I dunno what's broken in America that people feel so resigned about this kind of thing.
I guess it's that whole individualism thing -- it didn't happen to me, just some other poor dumb fuck, why should I care about it? Why should I stick my neck out, he was using illegal drugs! Plus, as we know from Arizona, it's completely okay to violate people's rights if you think they might be doing something illegal, like being here without the right paperwork.
Oh, and Joe Lieberman is talking about stripping citizenship from people who the government thinks might be associated with a terrorist group...
I'm sure this will all be made better when the Republicans take control of congress, because we all know they're serious limited government guys, right?

Should we introduce NASCAR racing to the summer games?
We should, it might actually MAKE money then.
Glenn Howards Amazing curling shot Brier 2009
I don't begrudge people for enjoying the game, but it's patently *ridiculous* that it is played on so high a stage. It's simply not the display of strength or endurance that merits its appearance at the olympics. Should we introduce NASCAR racing to the summer games?
Pixar's Hidden Secrets - Easter eggs in their films
^ Um... I didn't need to do any 'research' as it was all obvious from the get go:
1. The design of Wall-E was not even started let alone anything like what he looks like in the movie at the time Toy Story came out. And seeing as they said that the meeting happened AFTER the first Toy Story had come out they hadn't even DISCUSSED the concept of Wall-E at the time that movie came out... so that's pretty much blown it from the first fake 'easter egg' right there.
2. Every one of their fake ones was a 'wait, that was too hard to see, let's go back and watch that again in slow motion.' If you'll notice, Pixar don't really do that for their easter eggs, they put them in plain (if somewhat easy to miss most of the time) sight.
3. They just look pasted in. (Admittedly this is the sort of thing any 'FAKE' caller can say with nothing to back it up)
4. Pixar don't put in things that don't belong in the world they've been put in... hence a Wall-E wandering around in a present day world of Cars isn't something they'd do... they may make Wall-E a balloon or a toy or something, but not a robot in a Nascar pit.
All of which struck me as I watched it the first time, all of which are pretty obvious if you think about it (especially the first one).
I jumped on as an attack on the general acceptance of almost anything on the web displayed by so many. It's so easy to dupe people, and that makes me sad for critical thinking.
Zenyatta - Amazing Comeback Win at the Breeder's Cup (2009)
I completely disagree, westy. How can this sport be equated to rolling dice?
Yes, training is very much a part of it. What sport isn't? In fact I'd say training factors a lot more in to it than breeding. How many great horses sire other horses with great expectations that simply fizzle out? Plenty.
And how many horses come out of nowhere to give us wonderful stories - frequently.
Besides the point, when you get to these big races like the Triple Crown races and the Breeder's Cup, ALL the horses have strong lineage. So it really comes down to training and, to some extent, the cunning of the jockey.
This is a beautiful sport that, frankly, has eaten itself alive over the past couple decades. They haven't marketed themselves well to the public like other sports (see: NASCAR) over the years. And that's a shame. But I see a huge resurgance in popularity. Unfortunately, the sport won't see a big resurgance until there's a Triple Crown winner. And who knows when that'll be.
Epic Parking Fail!
obviously this was a case of the floor-mat getting stuck under the accelerator...
Lexus just had a recall on the same exact problem.
once the vehicle was elevated (on top of the 2 cars), the floor-mat became dislodged, and the driver was able to calmly put it in reverse and proceed about their business.
Luckily no one was injured.

And to the person who doesn't think BMW's can go off-road, there are many BMW rally cars (mostly in Europe, because Nascar is boring)
