    I like playing paintball. I like playing darts, Texas Hold'Em, and Playstation, too. That doesn't mean I want to sit and watch them on TV, though.

    Make them both wear a dress while in the penalty box. That will end flopping forever.

    Or cause Italian players to abandon soccer for an extended game of grab ass.

    There was more flopping in the Knicks-Memphis game last night then a whole season of Serie A games. Every time a Knicks player moved on offense, a Memphis defender was dropping to the floor. The refs bought the act too, most of the time.

    I feel the same way as you, at first i thought you were dogging on paintball. I play one level below the guys you see on tv, and some of them are my friends but when I try to watch it on TV, it bored me. I dont think ESPN looks at the entertainment enjoyment but rather at the numbers.
