Whilst it can be played without a spinner, most games of nude twister end up involving Shane Warne

I laughed! It broke everything down, the score and the loss, and reminded everyone what the game was really about. I may have shed a man-tear when he was on the stage post match though. Feels hollow this morning, I grew up watching those two and now they're gone.

You think that feels hollow. Try the most gut-wrenching Grand Final defeat of all time as a way of saying goodbye to Wishart (my childhood idol), McGregor, Coyne (who missed the game through injury), and Mackay. I still hate the media for ignoring these 4 legends who retired empty handed because they were too busy blowing their load over some fat f**k doing cartwheels.

2004 prelim against the rorters would be the most gut wrenching for me. Sent off Rauhihi who is probably the best forward in our history with a certain try disallowed to a bogus knock on call (didn't even let him score it to check the video, he blew the whistle while he was running in the clear), have Ricko smack someone in the face without consequence and get rorted a chance to win it a completely ignored offside penalty at the end. Nein got their GF that year with the rorters and dogs

NFL. Packers got dis.

Also, in response to whoever was the college football fanboy, college football sucks.

You ever sat there and watched a full game BM.

Better atmosphere and all the players put in all the time. Hell, the majority of QB's in college ball actually run with the ball.

The guys are playing for a career, not waiting on their next big ass paycheck.

College ball is great. There is obviously a yawning gap between it and the NFL in terms of skill, but it's just as exciting. Bunniesman is obviously once again proving he knows f**k all about anything

Yep. Its the same with College Basketball.

Hell, i found myself watching a fair bit of College Ice Hockey and lacrosse.

The coverage the college game get is huge.

Sometimes i wish we had the same thing here in Australia.

The last 2 plays in the 2007 Tostitos Fiesta bowl between Boise State Broncos and Oklahoma Sooners. Thie is what got me into College Ball.

Running backs are for running. I don't like QB's who run.

You get fools like Tebow dominate at that level and then get shown up when they compete with the big boys.

I understand what draws some to college sport. But I love pro sport because it's the best of the best.

For every Tim Tebow there is a Peyton Manning, Michael Irvin.

Its like the Toyota Cup, you will get guys who dominate in that comp, but when they make it to the NRL struggle.

And with regard to QB's not running in the NFL, if the play breaks down alot of them will just throw the ball wasting a down or worse an interception, whereas the college QB's will run it, they may not get a 1st down, but its better then an interception.

I love a huge number of sports but NFL just never did it for me. It's still good and watchable but too slow paced for me, it sits comfortably in tier 2 though.

I'm not heavily into the NFL but I chose to support Pittsburg because the quarterback isn't scared to run and take a tackle.
