Ok whomever said the NFL was the best sport is an idiot. Or was it skillful

"Best sport' is subjective.

Most skillful? Probably not. Lost of incredibly skillful players, but I wouldn't say most skillful.

I'd consider soccer more skillful. It's f**king hard to do anything if you're not allowed to use your hands.

You're making false attribution to my contribution to change, plus making blind assumptions of who I am in the real world. Societal progress is driven by a myriad of factors, including cultural shifts, technological advancements, economic developments, and evolving social norms. It is a dynamic interplay of these elements that shapes the world we live in. Blanket statements about any group's role in driving societal change may inadvertently perpetuate stereotypes and hinder the collaborative efforts required for meaningful progress. Hence I will ignore your jab about snowflakes and class BS. You're better than that.

I’m well aware of how much power the corporate-bureaucratic class wields, and so are you. Look at their horror in being unable to get the unpopular Yes vote across the line. You people can’t accept the result and are now throwing a tantrum on Australia Day. For shame!

It’s the wealthiest sporting league on the planet. You might be surprised to learn which league is in second place.

Australian netball?

That's a cool relevance?

Also if depends on what you consider a “league” because obviously FIFA covers most of every other league in the world combined

A skilled angler must embody agility, constantly adapting their fishing style, bait choices, and tackle to the ever-changing conditions.

I caught a dolphin fish (mahi mahi) over the hols. I don't think you're a very good fisherman.

Per game AFL earns more revenue than MLB.

Also the Indian Kabbadi League is the 119th biggest league and it’s a stupid f**ken sport that is totally awesome

@Gronk What would you like to happen?
Move Aus day? I have no issue personally. I can see why some people wish not to. I'm an introvert. I don't celebrate these things. If did it is just a quiet BBQ with some friends and a chat.

As far as the LGTBQ+ goes I think they should be treated with respect just like any individual but I also think this shits gone to far and we need to look into what's going on.

When I see reports like this below I wonder why is 28% of people in the next generation identifying as part of this ? These numbers seem wildly high. So we should ask why such a sharp increase? We are talking almost 1 in 3 of gen Z. At this rate it will hit 50% by the next generation. Is there something we have been exposed to (chemical) that is changing something biologicaly? Is it evolution? Perhaps we eventually will end up all the same sex. I don't know but the change is very rapid amd needs investigation.

FIFA isn't a league; it's an association. Though I suppose you could count an entire open league system as a league, but even then, the Premier League's value dwarfs the Championship and all levels below it, so even the entire 5+ levels of the English league system are worth less than the top American (and Indian) closed leagues.

I think you're right to change the subject. The spotlight is unflattering to wealthy leftists.

The change is to incentivisation, not biology.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Changing definitions are also having an impact:

Whatever is the reason the numbers are quite alarming. And increasing it seems very fast. Do we wait untill it's 50% before we look into it?

Firstly, people would need to agree that it was a problem. I'm sure plenty believe increasing diversity is a fantastic thing.

It’s OK that you couldn’t grasp the nuance of my post.
