Re: 300zx na 52k good buy?

dude you have no idea how physical those sports are compared to baseball... ever seen a fat figure skater? ever played badminton competitively? all of those sports, aside from perhaps curling, are way more physically demanding than baseball...

world>america, majority rules

wtf does weight have to do wth the pansiness of a sport. you go figure skate, ill stick to hitting homeruns and making diving plays at short stop.

played badminton in Physical Education in Junior High. me and my partner won the tournament and we got a free can of pop. as i said, the sport still screams flames.

and it is true, baseball you probably do not have to be in the best shape to play but to excel at it and be at the top of the game you should be able to do everything; steal bases, run down balls in the outfield, hit homeruns but more importantly get basehits consistently. yes there is a few exceptions where there are some fat people in baseball but very rarely are they great players. the only reason they can get away with it is because dumbass americans like to see a homerun rather than a stolen base so you have guys like Boston Red Sox player David Ortiz, who isnt that great at the game of baseball but can hit a homerun every once in a while. it draws fans to the stadium which draws money...and we all know how american's are when it comes to money.

in conclusion, dont down the sport of baseball because fans are dumbasses and there are a few unfit guys that destroy the art of the game. go back and watch Negro league baseball and early 1900's baseball. it is a totally different game and that is what the sport was meant to be.

and i still stand by original remark that badminton and figure skating are for pansies.

and you are wrong...history proves it. america > world. i dont see any other country having problems with immigration.

and god forbid i forget about canada's military...dont wont to mess with you guys.

Re: 300zx na 52k good buy?

Death must be involved for it to be a real sport. This can be done a number of ways however, that include but are not limited to:

*Sliding a 400HP AWD Focus around a snowy mountain hairpin at 60 mph in the middle of the night with the outboard rear hanging over the edge of a cliff.

*Kicking a tiger right square in the balls

*Pissing off Jet Li

*Drinking the entire nation of Germany under the table

And so on...

Mmmmm... With the exception of cricket. We didnt bring any of them up. That being said, the US competes in all them dumbass.

So we play pansy sports hey... So your women, i mean footballers, Get all dressed up in their skin tight pants.... put on their lipstick, I mean warpaint and then put on 3 tons of armour cuz they are scared of getting hurt.

Watch a game of rugby. They are fucking tough. No padding to be seen on them.

Aussie rules football? No padding there...

Gaelic football... same.

But one of the craziest sports I have seen is Hurling. That shit is fucking insane. The last game I watched 4 ppl got taken off in stretchers...

point being? the US competes in everything, no matter the gayness nature. our feminine men like to play sports also.

dont remember talking about football...our government has their hands in everything. watch early 1900's football, it was alot different game but beings our government has to regulate everything, safety becomes an issue. to further prove this, the federal government is now working on passing laws and bills with regulations on "super" sport bikes. in some states, they are discussing banning them period.


also, notice i did not mention rugby...that is a badass sport. i am just saying that in general, especially europe, they have alot of gay sports that shouldnt be considered sports, more like hobbies, kinda like knitting.

Like that time that 67 year old lady on the Kansas team got speared by that needle after getting in a brawl then got fouled for being off sides in her rocker? That shit is awesome to watch.

Re: 300zx na 52k good buy?

So what are the import laws like for going US to Canada? Even if it cost a bit you'd probably save money at those prices.

Re: 300zx na 52k good buy?

not sure, haven't even looked into it... i'd assume some sort of out of province inspection as well as paying tax on the purchase price, probably some sort of levy or duty tax as well... i'm sure they've made it so it's not worth your while

on the other hand... can get a decent z32tt for 8k from japan
