Maybe we should add that to the description so it doesn’t seem so… uh… girly
P.S. it’s also the forum for brewing beer?
… and it’s a “salon”?
Cafe Society: Our salon for beer, football, and MMA.
Blech.
Well, brewing beer might be considered by some to be an “artistic discipline”.
Of course! I’ve been looking for where to put my posts on women’s tennis, vollyball, gymnastics and running. You know Willie White just died, and Anne Bersagel just won the 2006 NCAA Woman of the Year Award, and the California Interscholastic Federation has plans to showcase (that means they can’t compete for awards) girl’s wrestling this May at the State Championships.
Feh…girly, indeed!
(I believe the real answer is that sports threads can very easily go in any number of fora. My news about Willie White and Anne Bersagel in MPSIMS, and the CIF and other Title IX issues in Great Debates. Questions about how to improve your golf swing in IMHO or how to wash out grass stains from a football uniform in GQ. If you’re talking about sports as entertainment, then Cafe Society would be appropriate, but it’s not a default choice.)
I think our general feeling was that sports threads, like so many topics, could be a specific question with a specific answer (hence GQ), could be a discussion with no end (GD), could be something to share about your own adventures playing third base in Little League (MPSIMS) and could be a flaming (Pit.)
Generally, if you’re unsure, sports questions are a form of “leisure” and so go in Cafe Society. We didn’t feel the need to change the Cafe Society description to include sports, knitting, woodworking, etc: to the extent that they are “leisure”, Cafe Society is fine.
Well, we DID consider changing the description to “Ike’s Arena of Sweat and Bruises”, and almost everyone was in favor of this, except for Ike himself.
Is that Ike , aka “Girly Man?”
I think you could have gotten him to bite if you had gone with “Ike’s Arena of Sweat, Bruises and Bassoons.”
Are you the one who wrote that Snickers commercial? :dubious:
