Should this Bother Me?



It randomly dawned on me today that I can name three female billiards players off the top of my head. Jeanette Lee, Allison Fisher, and Karen Corr.

By contrast, I can only name two professional bowlers (Walter Ray Williams and Pete Weber).

And I cannot name a single competitor in the World's Strongest Man competitions.

Sometimes, I miss the days of watching 3 AM ESPN.

that's the guy with the beer commercial right? i should have known that, i just couldn't quite squeeze it out of the memory banks.
i realized today, though, that the 3 AM days of women's billiards, bowling, and world's strongest man have somewhat passed us by. now, they show nothing but poker reruns.

true. i know you guys like some poker, but that craze has gotten way out of hand.

I still love to play poker, but I have pretty much freaking had it with poker on tv. it's on all the time. and the hands are all the same. i actually kind of prefer darts on tv at this point.
