Since TPTB won’t create a sports and games forum, I thought there was an understanding that sports threads went in Cafe Society. Right now on the IMHO front page we have [thread=449530]One[/thread], [thread=449610]Two[/thread], [thread=449534]Three[/thread]. Number One was even moved _into_ IMHO from GQ.  
There’s a couple NFL threads in MPSIMS, too. I’m a sports fan, not a Bedouin sheepherder. What gives?
