...Is there a more perfect sport?

You run around on a half-sheet of ice, in your tennis shoes, wielding a stick with a big rubber paddle on the end, whacking away at a rubber ball while trying not to fall flat on your ***** Brilliant!

I just got back form playing broomball with some guys on my floor and some ladies from the floor above us, and it made me realize a few things:

1. I am really out of shape
2. I need to quit smoking
3. Girls look hot sliding around on the ice

I've also joined up in a intramural (sp?) broomball league. Has anyone else ever played? Did you like it or not? Does your groin hurt as bad as mine?

Is broomball a cacophemism for 'doing it'?

Err, I mean, 'coc[/i]kophemism'.

I think I need to add you to my list.

Btw, you reminded me of a joke.

[i]"Once upon a time a powerful Emperor of the Rising Sun advertised for a new Chief Samurai. After a year, only three applied for the job: a Japanese, a Chinese and a Jewish Samurai.

"Demonstrate your skills!" commanded the Emperor. The Japanese samurai stepped forward, opened a tiny box and released a fly. He drew his samurai sword and * Swish! * the fly fell to the floor, neatly divided in two!

"What a feat!" said the Emperor. "Number Two Samurai, show me what you can do."

The Chinese samurai smiled confidently, stepped forward and opened a tiny box, releasing a fly. He drew his samurai sword and * Swish! * Swish! * The fly fell to the floor neatly quartered!

"That is skill!" nodded the Emperor. "How are you going to top that, Number three Samurai?"

Number Three Samurai stepped forward, opened a tiny box releasing one fly, drew his samurai sword and *Swoooooosh! * flourished his sword so mightily that a gust of wind blew through the room. But the fly was still buzzing around! In disappointment, the Emperor said, "What kind of skill is that? The fly isn't even dead."

"Dead is easy." replied the Jewish Samurai. "Circumcision...now that takes skill!" "

No, broomball is not a metaphor for sex.

And do I really come off as Jewish? If you read back into some of the God threads, you'll find that I am actually Catholic, although not very spiritually active. I'm what some people call a "C & E Christian".

Christmas and Easter.

Broomball's more of a Northern sport. Even though it's almost allways played indoors. I imagine they don't have Candlepin bowling out in North Hollywood either where you bowl with tiny balls the size of softballs and the pins are shaped like very tall soda cans.

We used to call that 'Duckpin' bowling on the east coast. Fun stuff.

It enjoys some popularity in Minnesota as well, though when I first played it, we did use actual brooms.

Do I really come off as a person who made you think I thought you came off as Jewish?

I didn't think you were Jewish. Why would I? You never asked me for money.

I think Minnesota would probably qualify as Northern, seeing as it borders Canada and all.
