Heard them talking about the strike on SSN mate, but don't tend to follow the American type sports too closely (baseball, basketball, American football etc)

I used to follow the NBA a bit but since getting involved with coaching the kids I follow it a lot more now.....or at least I did before the strike

Me neither Grumpy, a lot of that is down to not knowing the rules but from a spectator's point of view, basketball is something I'd go to watch once but never again.......it's just far too repetitive.
Baseball = Rounders for big boys
American Football = Gay Rugby and an excuse for morbidly obese folk to scoff more burgers/hotdogs/doughnuts

Bundy....if you get the chance try and catch a live Basketball match the atmosphere and pace of the game is fabulous. . I quite like American football but have never got in to baseball although I did enjoy going to see the Toronto Blue Jays a few years back

I use to quite like watching the basketball on tv when it was on channel 4. I used to also enjoy playing it on my snes.
