        EXCUSE ME!  If you're going to bash US sports, let's atleast start
with the fake one.  Is there anywhere else in the world, where you can see
giants wearing spandex (American version of Layderhosen sp?) throw each
other around a rubberband wrapped mat, enjoy it, and beleive that it's real?
        At least in Canada we have respectable sports like Kaber(sp?)
tossing!
