Yes, its back ;D

1. Why do radio operators say "niner" instead of just "nine"?

2.  Do birds pee?

3.  Why in baseball is it called the World Series if it is only played in the U.S.A & Canada?

4. Why do they call it your "bottom", when it's really in the middle of your body?

5.  If someone can't see, they're blind and if someone cant hear, they're deaf, so what do you call people who can't smell?

6.  Why is it called football when you hardly use your feet?

7. If you drink Pepsi at work in the Coke factory, will they fire you?

Enjoy,
Ashar :)

That last one would be beverage discrimination and they should not be legally allowed to get away with shunning/firing people who work there for drinking pepsi..:-)

Of course you're more than likely gonna have your fellow co-workers against you as well....;-)

I'd drink pepsi there!

#7 reminds me of a very similler (sp?) case at a Miller brewery near here. One of the workers somehow ended up with his picture in the paper, and he was drinking a Bud Light (better choice IMO). His boss saw it, and fired him. Then he threatened to sue, and got his job back.

Oxford university rugby team (UK) took on an American university football team at both Rugby and American Football ......... Oxford won both!!
NO fear of pain when in the suits ment that Oxford tackled harder in the football game......Fear of pain without the suits ment the Americans got beaten black and blue in the rugby, where you have to commit to the tackle or there's a real danger of injury.

Ah, just like all my predictions of such a match.

And Stiz, I shouldn't think the american football team would dare walk onto the pitch when faced by the All Blacks. ;D

What team did Oxford play?

It would be interesting to see what tier the team was in and what the national ranking for them was like.

Last time I saw a similar matchup they left the Rugger players bleeding from just trying to catch a forward pass.

The Oxford university rugger team would not be professionals. I'm guessing they played a Football team from an American university. A fair match up.

And I'd like to see an American football team adapt to the concept of only passing backwards... ;D

I did think it would be a College or University team...but the top teams all have national rankings in the US. :)

There would be a big difference between playing #1 ranked USC and playing somebody like Harvard. ;)
