Squash isn't a very aesthetically pleasing sport to me for reasons I can't quite articulate. Something about knocking the ball as close as posdible to the corner of a perspex box makes me feel the same way I do when I'm reaching for something that's dropped between the chair and my table. I don't get this feeling with tennis.

Also, talk about the Commonwealth Games here, if you're not already sick of themed.

Any squash lads here? From this thread, it doesn't seem like a worthwhile sport, but all my mates keep going on about it.

It looks physically intense, which is what I want. Any other recommendations?

Squash is fun but not for the faint hearted. It's very punishing on the health due to all the irregular jumping around and whatnot, good fun but you have to pace yourself or you're on a first class service to snap city.

Picked it up about 2 years ago, of all the racket sports I've played (tennis, table tennis, badminton), it's the funnest. Managed to make my way onto the Uni team this year.

It can be quite intense, but it all depends on your skill level. If you're playing against a beginner you can make them do all the running by placing the ball correctly. Two evenly matched people would do a similar amount of running as eachother.

It's exceedingly dull to watch, but quite demanding to play and a really fun way to work up a sweat. It's competitive, mind, and when playing it for fun it's self-judged so you need to be, literally, a good sport so both you and your opponent can have fun. If you're okay with playing 1-vs-1 games where there's no team to blame, then squash is a good and fairly accessible place to start.

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/jul/23/luis-suarez-murderer-liverpool-iago-aspas-barcelona-bite

> “They are treating Luis like a murderer and not like a footballer,” he said. “There are murderers who pay less [for what they have done]. Not to let him be presented [by Barcelona], to train or to enter the stadium is too much.”

I'm sure there are plenty of murderers in prison thinking, "Thank Christ I'm not Luis Suarez."

I think 2012 did a fantastic job of rehabilitating the Union flag what with the Jubilee and the Olympics happening in such quick succession although it was never really that racist anyway.
The England flag however still lurks in the gutter except for about 2 weeks around a archaeology tournament. I think in order for that to be sorted we'd actually need to win one of these tournaments.
It has the problem of actually looking quite boring compared to the Union Flag and in my mind brings up memories of Rain, Romford and seeing people eat chips in the rain while shouting obscenities at their children.

Flags aren't meant to be exciting.

But I somewhat agree, the union jack is definitely sexier. But then I think it's one of the best flags in the world to be honest, it just looks great.

St George really does need some rehab though.

5539 Roller derby
http://www.vice.com/en_se/read/roller-derby-sweden-vs-finland

A friend of mine has gotten into roller derby. Well, his fiancé has and his method of supporting her on her important life choice is by being incredibly over-the-top and enveloping himself in the roller derby world, which is why I've had it thrown down my throat for a year or so.

I just wanted to find a place where I could bitch about roller derby and masquerade it as a simple disagreement with this article. If a game allows - nay, actively requires - you to customise your equipment with teenager's-backpack-style stickers and choose an alter-ego, then I don't believe it's a sport. If these people spent as much time practicing a sport as they did posing for photos in their equipment for their team's Facebook page, they might actually get good at a legitimate sport.

My friend tries to justify it by saying I should see a men's game (I won't call it a bout) before I shrug it off, but having met some of the blokes that are into the sport, I can vouch for them being weird people that are trying to be some male counterpart to the alt-girl. I don't think I'd enjoy watching people skate slowly in circles regardless of gender.

Can we talk about roller derby? Preferably in agreement that it's shit, but I'm open to being called a cunt for having this opinion.
