Never been to Wisconsin, have you?

Nope, never been. But I'll still make wild accusations for no reason. After all, this is ACF.

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

People who say that NBA games are boring and pointless for 3.5 quarters aren't NBA fans at all, end of story.


That's like saying Hockey isn't worth watching until the 3rd period. Football isn't worth watching until the 4th. Baseball isn't worth watching until the 9th. These people aren't fans.


To address your question, the NBA can be frustrating to watch when too many fouls are being called. But to me, it's no worse than Football with its 10 seconds of action then 3 minutes of commercials. Real fans put up with the lame parts of the game.


If you want the closest thing to non stop action there is in sports, watch Hockey. It's really good about having continuous action and very few breaks between.



You just moved up on my list...


Seriously, though, I'm not a fan of basketball. Too many fouls, and most of those are commited with intent, and not just jostling for position. I've tried to watch with friends and just get bored with the showboating and dirty playing and cheap shots.
