    The "Cadiverliers" are in tailspin although LBJ won a game at the buzzer yesterday - I'm no hoops guy EXCEPT for MARCH MADNESS I'm all in there.

    Thank goodness for the Olympics that start tonight! Thought for a while it might be the NK vs SK missile throwing contest, lol.

    I've been watching "m" vs THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BUCKEYES lately on ESPN CLASSICS. 

    Golf, sock-her, even hockey can be boring I'd rather watch kids playing in the street......if you can find any, they're all inside playing video games.....no wonder they'll never leave home.

    SO WHAT AM I MISSING ON TV? DON'T SAY THE NETWORK SIT-COMS OR REALITY TV, they stink!

    Also, I am watchinf some Olympics, hoping something bad happens to those two Anti American, Mike Pence-hating homos.

    You are obsessed with gay sex more than gay people are. 

    Usually people who spend so much time railing on about homosexuality, like Mike Pence, and... well... you, usually are found out loooooooooooving the schlong.

    What? There are 2,952 athletes set to face off in 102 events across 15 different sports over the course of the next 16 days before the Games come to a close on Feb. 25. These events will take place at 13 venues spread across the counties of PyeongChang and Jeongseon, as well as the coastal city of Gangneung.

     The 2018 U.S. Olympic Team is comprised of 244 athletes (135 men, 109 women)......Grow up already. 

    GO USA! ENJOY THE GAMES.

     Hate begets hate...Mike Pence has railed about his hatred for gays for years.  You reap what you sow.

    I don't know where does the term come from, but in soccer it is used to name a match between from the same city/region. 

    For example in Spain 'El derbi vasco' is the match between Athletic de Bilbao and Real Sociedad (San Sebastián), because both teams are from Basque Country.

    Well...I see this definition of it:

    The phrase most likely originated from The Derby, a horse race in England, founded by the 12th Earl of Derby in 1780, since at least as early as 1840 'derby' has been used as a noun in English to denote any kind of sporting contest. A local derby is just a sporting contest between local rivals.

    So, well, maybe in English english a sporting contest can be called a derby.....but in American English we have never used that term for anything other than a horse race.

    So...I will ask the Americans on here:   have any of you ever heard of any sporting event other than a horse race called a "Derby"?

    Edit:  So....here is where I say to myself:  Hello, McFly, is anybody home?   You...Gipper, dumbass are from the Akron Ohio area.......home of the Soap Box Derby.

    OK...so I will self flagellate with a wet noodle.
