Water polo is so gay

And now, a Heather's jack.

And the ad at the bottom of this thread is great.

"The refreshingly gay fitness site. Real jock."

 

Three points:

1) Water polo is easily the toughest sport I've ever played. See "The Blood in the Water" match between Hungary and the Russkies.

2) I find it sad and interesting that an incident like this somehow paints gay people in a bad light. When a straight guy molests a kid, I don't feel like I have to defend straight people -- "We're not all child molesters, you know." I mean, as if the actions of few perverts, gay or straight, are representative of the rest of us. Still, it shows how far we still need to go, I suppose.

3) I don't have to defend my listening to Sufjan Stevens to anybody.

 

The water polo tourneys at scout camp were held in the shallow end... until fights became commonplace.

So they moved us to the deep end... and the fights stopped because people were too busy trying not to drown.

Water polo... tougher than soccer and competitive cheer combined

 

Really, could you?

 

I covered the water polo team in college and I have to agree that the amount of effort these guys have to put into not drowning is impressive. My favorite thing was the fingernail check before games to make sure nobody's nails were long enough to do permanent damage underwater. Evil crap going on below the surface...
