Stuff you've always wondered

[JuddsABlue]

I think many great sportsmen have a real issue retiring at the right time though. Not sure about Lleyton as I don't follow tennis really closely.

Many just don't want to accept that they're not that prime 25 year old anymore who could get it done regularly.

Look at Michael Jordan, game winning jumpshot to win his sixth title in his final season with the Bulls. Picturesque scene, couldn't probably write an ending better but his competitive itch brought him out of retirement.

but my point is, who are the people on the couches to tell them when to retire from their job?

The attitude is once you've past your best you should stop earning a living out of respect to the fans or something, like its insulting to us to not be as good as you once were.

Any person who makes the second round of a grand slam is quite obviously well up to the required standard, so why are people telling him to give it up?

I think his point was that he hasn't really got anywhere since 2009 which is true.

I don't think you can just expect him to retire though. Although I thought he should've probably called it a day after that epic(against Novak I think it was?).

I guess with tennis though you can be selfish. Team sports are different. I don't like when older players continue to earn fat checks while clearly in decline, while taking a chance from a youngster or hindering his team.

If girls that can deep throat can hold more liquid from a glass (IE water etc) than normal people.

Yeah he probably hasnt, but again thats not really the point. Hes still performing to the standard required at the top level, so why is it not his business to be there?

Majority of sportsmen will spend a great deal of their career in decline of their peak, its the nature of the human body and the sports we play.

If a team player is hindering the team then its on the coaching staff who are responsible for the health and success of the team to move that player on and pick someone better.

Although I thought he should've probably called it a day after that epic(against Novak I think it was?).

But why should he retire? I just dont understand this mindset. There are X amount of players playing tennis and Grand Slams are reserved for those that are in the top bracket, good enough to qualify based on world rankings. Hewitt is beating hundreds if not thousands of the worlds top players to get a spot in these events, its mind boggling for some to say he shouldnt be doing it because hes ageing.

Shouldnt it be further celebrated that he could compete as he gets older?

 

[Cruyff14]

Hewitt made $57,000 for playing two matches of tennis.

Why not keep playing? He clearly still has the passion, I don't like him on the court, but he's a fighter and will never give up.

 

[Holy Foley!]

People who work weekends and public holidays. How and why do you do it? Cant think of anything worse...

Because we get weekdays off. You jelly?

Probably because it's generally double pay on public holidays. Can't work out why people would work on weekends though, it's called a 'weekend' for a reason, the end of the working week. (unless you're a sportsmen I suppose)

If you're gay and you get horny, do you wanna * or be phucked

 

[Cruyff14]

What's the difference if you're gay or straight?

 

[Ashton Agar]

What's the difference if you're gay or straight?

Well a straight guy doesn't want to get penetrated, full stop.


If your gay and horny do you want to penetrate or be penetrated?

 

[Cruyff14]

If your gay and horny do you want to penetrate or be penetrated?

I don't know, do you?

 

[Ashton Agar]

I don't know, do you?

No. That's why we are wondering it....

Tbh I've never pondered the thought until now!

 

[Cruyff14]

Whoooooooooosh

 

[JuddsABlue]

No. That's why we are wondering it....

Tbh I've never pondered the thought until now!

there are catchers and thowers in the gay world, so it would depend on where you stand (or lay)

but when you get horny do you desire to park your car in the garage, or do you just desire to nut? Its the same thing I reckon, its about the ends.

 

[Ahern2Boof]

Have a gay friend who was explaining it all to me one night. It actually sounds quite complex with their different terms and stuff.

 

[Neese]

Do women enjoy men-on-men pornography similar to how men enjoy women-on-women?

Not me

 

[Quivorir]

I've probably seen Quivorir , I think there is another person from around my area that I've probably seen before

Do you look like a magpie bogan?

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Maybe

I remember seeing Jordan asked about that. He was downright dismissive. "That was your ending, not mine."

Why cyclists choose to ride on the road while the bike path 5 metres to their left follows the exact same route for kilometres.

I doubt you understand what a "bike path" is

 

[AngryRanga]

I doubt you understand what a "bike path" is

I thought a bike path was a path that was intended for bikes. What am I getting wrong?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

No, a bike path is really one normal sized lane made exclusively for cyclists. Half for them and their bike, the other half for the chip on their shoulders.

 

[Illinois Nazi]

Pfft, Cadel Evans doesn't have to use a bike path, why should I?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Oh, always thought that was known as a Bike Lane or something similiar. What would what I was describing be known as, a bike track?

A bike path?
