HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?

I used to like it when I was a kid. And I think its better than a lot of sports IMO.
But I still don't like it enough for it to be a hobby. I prefer computer games, music and TV for my hobbies.
I also love foruming of course but that is more of an interest than a hobby.
To paraphrase George Carlin "I don't have hobbies, I have interests. Hobbies cost money, interests are free."

I prefer a good game of rugby. It involves a variety of skills, and you don't get people tripping over and causing 3 minutes of injury time. The winning team is more often than not the one who has lost the most blood by the end of the match.

Ha, this reminds me of a certain part of Robin Williams' Broadway standup. Have you seen this?
And I found this clip of the bit I mean on youtube, its particularly relevant (to the quote above atleast) 1:13 into the clip, but its all good imo.
Robin Williams live standup on Broadway talking about football:

PS: Warning he says 'the F**k word', the F word, bad language extra to those who don't like it.
