I can't even tell you if Hockey is being played professionally any more. 
I stoped actively watching/following football when Joe Montana retired, and baseball was in the Billy Martin days... Man I'm old. |
ARe you kidding me? If I have to watch one more "dear god I hope NASCAR doesn't fine me so I'm going to give the PC response while making sure to get all my sponsors mentioned" interview I'm going to shoot myself in the face. A "genuine" response would be "yeah, that mutherfucker put me in the wall, so after I got two new right side tires, I made sure to punt his bitch-ass the next time I was near him on track. That fucker will think twice the next time he tries to use me for the old 8 tire pass."
As far as I can remember, only Tony Stewart these days is willing to call it as he sees it. Everyone else is walking on eggshells all the time.
