Members RA1 Posted July 9, 2014 Members Posted July 9, 2014 Actually, I don't very much. But, today, catching up on the NBA trading rumors, I read one which mentioned how they all were waiting with baited breath. I suppose sports talkers can have minnows or worms in their mouths in order to bait their breath. Most of us hold our breath when it is bated. It is a relatively slow time for sports. Football is around the corner, basketball is over for 3 more months, tennis is between Wimbledon and the US Open, the major golf tournaments either have already been played or are in the future. The baseball All Star game is next week. Baseball has had some moments but the "pennant race" is yet to commence, so a little slow. Soccer is something to keep you from drinking too much beer at your local sports bar. Ah, well, as always, things will change and soon. Best regards, RA1 Quote

Best regards, RA1 Well, at this stage of the game, it's an arrow in one's quiver, when the ball is in someone else's court. Try not to get behind the eight-ball as there will be plenty of blow-by-blow action coming up soon, which should cover and cure all the bases of your current boredom. Quote

Members ihpguy Posted July 9, 2014 Members Posted July 9, 2014 Bite your tongue. Today's match between th Oranje and Messi's Rangers should be a goodie. And followed last night's record-setting whitewash between Germany and Brasil was the best example of a Blitzkrieg since Hitler went marching through Europe. Quote
