      I would say the bit in the OP was less about sports and more about our culture.

      Whooaahh Silver! Chill out, guy. I was just referring to people that are not familiar with George Carlin may just be in the younger set. From the the guys you mentioned (comedians who came on the scene just recently) it seemed like you might be a decade younger. Just thought I would ask. Even if you were younger you may have seen him on Thomas the Train program on PBS.

      From your tone it seems as though you are a pretty angry guy. There was another thread where I noticed you were a little snappy.

      So ummmmm, let's lighten up. It's just the inter-webs Bro.
      because i dont find a particular skit funny, and comment on it, does not mean anything, lol you dont have to push someone who you find to be funny onto someone else! dont know what your deal is, but im fine! i just choose to listen/watch my fav comedians....

      Although I loved George, some of his ideals were a little....out there, for what it's worth. I love comedians that make you think after they've made you laugh. Another great one for that was Bill Hicks who was my personal favorite (he is also gone now, RIP).

      I am a football junkie. Played football as a kid, high school level. Both my boys play organized tackle football (ESFL). I love it, absolutely love it. College, Pro, I even like going to the High School games.

      Baseball is great when you want to take a nap in the Summer. Lie on the couch, turn the baseball game on, and not long after....ZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!

      Carlin fans should watch his interview on 'Inside the Actors Studio".. It gives some background.. like the fact the was school in a Catholic Church - but he loved it, and still did at the time of that interview. I got the privilege of seeing him perform live - and let me tell you, he was NOT easy on the crowd, which was great. Something about guys who wear cowboy hats are like children dressing up for Halloween all year long. lol

      I like Bill Hicks too... not always funny, but honest.. sometimes brutally.. which, too me, can be considered funny in a certain context.

      I've been listening to Joe Rogan alot lately.. he has a similar style and perspective. Good stuff.

      I loved it when Rogan busted Carlos Mencia on plagiarizing other comedians.

      Joe Rogan thinks everything is a vast conpiracy of some sort..

      Fixed it for you Derrik. Sick Fish is way more than just 'nice'.

      If you actually listen you might understand that he doesnt subscribe to any theories - but talks about facts. And he isn't always so damn serious..

      So what if he's rich. Are you saying that makes him a poser? And who cares if a rich guy is a poser. Get over it. The hobby needs "rich" guys. And I don't care if they're collectors, owners or builders - at least they're active in the hobby.

      Talk about sour grapes.

      wow...he payed out the ass? do you know personally how much he spent? the sick fish is a top notch build, id imagine there are several of members here who have close to, or more invested in there cars!!! and yeah, choosing to have a car built such as the cuda, makes him a car guy! who cares how much he spent, and you must know him personally to assume he is too scared to drive his own car! lol get a grip guy!!

      George just called. He was busy baking a pie without an oven, but took a minute to ask me to lock this thread.
