(Except possibly crown green bowling which is just dull). I just find that the argument against drugs in sport is hypocritical and ill informed at best. Oh - and this isn't advocating the use of drugs in sport either. Or cheating of any sort. <br> <br> Except if you're playing the card game Cheat. Then it's allowed.<br> <br> ;-) Don’t get me wrong - I’m not advocating the banning of boxing, rubgy (god forbid!) or any sport. (Except possibly crown green bowling which is just dull).

Yes, it's dangerous - and personally, I hate it as a sport. But as with many things, if it's banned, it'll just go underground. If it did that, then there would be no medical support during/after fights, and even when badly hurt, the fighters wouldn't get taken to hospital. No matter how much I loathe the "sport", I'd still rather see it legal, and as safe/regulated as possible.

Seriously though, that man terrifies me. I actually sat up all night watching the results of the last US election coming in, yelling at the TV every time he won a state.

I’m not saying Al Gore was perfect, but I have to believe that he wouldn’t have been as much of a nightmare as dubya’s been.

Just ask the Governor of California!" Agree with the sentiment and the last word entirely!
