Basketball takes skill, speed, agility, and excellent hand eye coordination to master. This is one sport I would never call gay.

what about John Stockton's shorts?

Basketball is gay. This just tells me that you suck at it and would rather discredit this fine sport then work on improving your skills.

True...Basketball is an sport like hockey, MA, golf, rugby, soccer...do you like a good slam of Vince Carter, a rare pass of Williams or something like this?
If you say not, I think you don't love the sport...I can enjoy with an arm submission, a soccer goal, a rally race, a touchdown,...I can enjoy with all sports.

If I said the class entitled "Teaching men to wear panties" was gay, it wouldn't mean that I can't wear panties.. just means that I think it's ****ing gay and I choose not to do it. You're probably goin to say this has nothin to do with basketball, but its an analogy.

But it's okay ball boy, I'm not goin to tell you that you can't do it. Just like I don't tell a dragqueen that he's wrong and grose (that's an analogy too). As long as you're happy playin your basketball, fine with me. But I think it's ****ing gay and retarded.

Non contact sports are for queers only.

Dude.. u cant win this arguement in here. A forum full of NHB fans (the most hardcore sport in existance).. and you're tellin us that a ****in ball game is awsome? We are bloodthirsty men, we don't play with balls and run back and forth.. we kill eachother and ravage through eachothers insides like wild fighting dogs on roids.

What's next? Someone starting a ****in thread called "Knitting!! Oh how fun!!" .. my god, make this stop.

Well, then you think the same about hockey or rugby...

My love of fighting is too much for this thread.. I'm gettin pissed too easily thinkin about other ****in ball games that the general public calls "sports." I need to step outta here.

OK, bye...

Hockey is sooo gay.

This is an opinionated arguement.......

Basketball is a great sport and hockey is as well.

Hockey is gay.

Hockey is lonely too.

Didn't that little bow crappy wow kid write a song about this "sport". If thats your standard player the sports has to be gay.

Who the hell plays rugby? Basketball is popular all over the world, but your rugby never caught on here in the states.

Basketball = less popular than rugby.

Your just mad because you rugby team sucks. Thats the way The u.s. see's it. If were not the best we won't try.

Ok so where is basketball popular....USA, the balkans, china
Rugby = across Europe, Australia, North America
So the way I see it rugby is more popular.

How about most of Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, South America and all of North America? Rugby is popular in England, New Zealand, Australia, Tasmania, and remote parts of Canada. There is no competition here, basketball is clearly more popular.

You just keep believing that

Well I'm taking the American stance on rugby; it's not popular here so we don't care.

Next thing you'll be saying that basketball is more popular than hockey and that is going to make me list every country in which hockey is played.

It's definitely more popular than hockey in the USA.

You're just still bitter we kicked your ass in the gold medal game.

I didn't even know the USA played in a gold medal game since Lake Placid.

They tried to play but couldn't handle it.

As long as we keep getting the gold in basketball.

Didn't do so well at the world's last year.

GEAREDUP's opinion about basketball sucks.
