    Tsk, Tsk, Targan, you KNOW there's only one REAL Hockey. That thing they do on ice is a pale imitation!

    If it moves, shoot it, if not push it, if it still doesn't move, use explosives.

          Hmm, I don't think the members of the Kookaburras look much like girls. And if we are questioning the masculinity of certain sports people, lets take a look at some popular North American sports. Gridiron - kind of like rugby (the sport played in heaven) but strangely ritualised and with all that pansy padding and helmets. Shrunken testicles anyone Ooh, and lets see what else. Baseball What the hell is with those pants Strongly influenced by gay fashion methinks.

          You want real sports played by real men, come to the southern hemisphere.

            Down here in the southern hemisphere, terms like "armour" and "padding" are looked upon as a sign of weakness.

            REAL men play games that can result in SERIOUS injury - broken arms and legs, torn tendons, even the odd spinal injury.

            And do they moan about the risk Do they dress up in fancy protection NO, they grit their teeth against the pain, get up and play on!

              Hey, don't look at me! My sport in high school was judo -- and we weren't considered real jocks.

                  No, real men do really dangerous things -- like tell a girlfriend they're breaking up with that they're an insane bitch...ouch!

                    Real men marry the homocidally insane bitch, then break up with them....

                        The Irish do pretty well with insane games. I've seen hurling/hurley. For those not familiar, you get a bunch of bog warriors, divide them into two teams, give them sticks, and send them out onto the field. When the referee throws a little ball onto the playing field, the men get to chop at each other with their sticks until (quite by accident) the ball goes through an upright at either end. When this happens, there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth--apparently so that the wives and the clergy will think the ball had something meaningful to do with the hacking, slashing, smashing, and bashing on the field. Eventually, one side is declared the winner, and everyone who is still capable of going to the pub does so.
