| Resolved Question: Isn't it funny how the rest of the world doesn't give a crap about the Super Bowl? |
I agree with the rest of the world. This lame American sport known as "football," is stupid. The rest of the world doesn't care about this event.
The World Cup is the world's event and it's much better than the Super Bowl!
World Cup > Super Bowl
BTW, I'm an American and I prefer the NBA over the NFL!
The NBA is much more popular than the NFL worldwide! Basketball is the second most popular sport in the world, and the NBA stars are known 1,000 times more than NFL superstars! |

| Resolved Question: Has this ever happen when NHL team wins The Stanley Cup with not a successful power play during any time in...? |
..the season (regular and/or playoffs)? If not, could it happen and especially in this day and age. Mean with all of the on and/or off ice distractions that happen during the season. This question can also applies to other teams in another all other sports (MLB, NBA, NFL and etc) seasons and/or playoffs/post season. |

| Open Question: Is.the NFL better than the n.b.a.? |
I.notice there is more loyalty than in the n.b.a. Its hard to follow in the nba which player is playing where because players change teams all the time, team up with superstars.for easy rings, there r disrespectful players like lebron who diss there whole team on t.v. Most nfl players show appreciation for their teams. our country does not get as excited for the NBA finals.as.the super bowl. NBA is a stupid sport, and extremely.boring to watch. teams try harder in NFL than in n.b.a., its more thrilling when players,score, |

I said don't let your preference of sport have too much bias over how much fun the game is to play. ERGO, if I say... hate Baseball, but MLB 12: The Show is a fun game to play, I won't put MLB 12: The Show lower on the list just because of that. |

| Voting Question: Why don't professional athletes use local anesthesia during games? |
Okay, so, I have actually sprained my ankle very badly before. I was in a full sprint and I landed on the side of my foot. literally, the bottom of my shoe made a 90 degree angle with the ground. the swelling was the size of a baseball/softball and remained that size for about 3 days before finally starting to shrink. Onto professional sports.
the way I look it is:
From personal experience, if your ankle/wrist is sprained, it is not inhibiting your movement; you still have your full range of motion, the only reason you don't exercise this range of motion is because it hurts really bad to do so. But if you were to apply local anesthesia, from my understanding, it would completely remove the sensation of pain (without making you high, so it would remove pain while also leaving you sober) while still allowing your brain to communicate with it and tell it to do things such as pivot, rotate, run (ankle), swivel back or forth (wrist), etc. Basically, if you were to apply local anesthesia it would allow you to move normally because there would be no pain inhibiting you from moving around.
Basically, if someone who runs a 4.40 sprains their ankle and then applies local anesthesia, removing the pain, would it allow them to run at least a 4.50 if not a 4.40? or would the anatomy of the sprain limit this movement?
and when I say sprain, I'm talking about the kind of sprain that Adrian Peterson had or that Rob Gronkowski. some ligaments torn but not a lot.
For example, if Gronkowski were to apply local anesthesia to his ankle for the superbowl, would it allow him to play at 80-100%? Or am I missing something about how local anesthesia works. Local anesthetics are used in childbirth to relieve the pain, and I honestly can't imagine too many physical pains worse than that. and of course an ankle sprain is nothing compared to that.
Also, is it against NBA or NFL policy to use local anesthetics? because I don't see why you wouldn't use it in a superbowl, where no matter what further injury you incur, you will have 7 months to recover. |

| Voting Question: Who has the best playoff crowds in each sport? |
1. NHL
2. NFl
3. MLB
4. NBA
Im from Philly so im biased obviously. I would put us up there in the top three in every sport but basketball. How would you rank the top three in each sport? |
|
| Resolved Question: please rank these sports? |
Out of these 4 sports, (Baseball, Football, Basketball and Hockey). Rank these sports from 1-4, (1 being the most). In terms of your preference to play, your preference to watch their major league, and you think the most popular in states.
If you have any reason, feel free to say it.
For me, it would be
to play :
Football
Basketball
Baseball
Hockey
To watch :
MLB
NFL
NBA
NHL
For the most popular
Football
Baseball
Basketball
Hockey |

| Resolved Question: How can I use prfessional sports logos in my product? |
I have a great product that includes professional sports logos/identifying marks. I have educated myself on the NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB processes of using such legally represented trademarks and copyrights. How can I skirt around the red tape legality of these league rules and be able to market my product with profitability?? |
|
| Resolved Question: Pro Bowl? Opinions, did you even bother to watch it? |
Do you think the Pro Bowl should be played the week before the Super Bowl like it is now? The week after the Super Bowl like it used to be? Or should the NFL do like all other major sports, NBA, MLB, NHL and hold the pro bowl mid season and have a bye week for all teams?
I did watch the game today and the 1 thing I realized is that it was fun to watch. I didn't care who won or lost, I wasn't stressed out about my team winning or losing, and the players were having fun. Crazy plays, entertaining. What do you think?
I like the idea of a mid season Pro Bowl/all star game.
I usually don't bother watching it but I had nothing better to do today. |
