Canadian Broadcast Standards Council dimwits say that pro wrestling is a sport.

Not surprising coming from a Council that seriously considered attempting to oversee the Internet.

The sport is popular for one reason: The fans enjoy watching sweaty wrestlers grope each other. The so called sport, is really a gay porno in disguise.

I once saw on my CBC evening news at 6pm a clip from Rwanda where this poor guy got his head cut off with a machete and where rebels pushed a live human being off a bridge because they though he was from some other race and then shot and killed him with multiple ak47's while he was trying to swim for his life.

But they blank out "Bad *bep* Billy Gun" at 11pm on an entertainment show.

Just like a HOLE surrounds itself with a doughnut the CRTC surrounds itself with the most stupid people on this planet. The CRTC and the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council get the "Anal of the Year Award".

I AM CANADIAN..... how embarrassing.

I don't know about that, but I'll take your expertise in gay porno over mine any day.

And in Japan, highlights of their pro wrestling stuff (not SUMO wrestling) are shown on the late local news along with sports.

And of course wrestling is far from a sport, here are several points:

*In a real sport, if an injury takes place, such as a concussion, broken bone, etc., or even worse, the play would be stopped, and the guy would be taken off the field/court and taken to the hospital. In the WWF guys have nearly broken their necks after being dropped on their heads, suffered concussions, and dislocated their shoulders only to continue on.

*Most &quot;real&quot; athlets have some sort of scheduled off-season in their work, while pro wrestlers often work 300+ days a year, with maybe 4-5 days a month off.

*&quot;Real&quot; athletes have player unions, many have guarenteed contracts for injury, and a workers comp deal. There's probably about a handful of guys with ANY of those things.

*&quot;Real&quot; athletes don't perform when hurt. On any given night, 1 or 2 out of every 5 guys are working with some sort of injury.

So yes, the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council is WAAAY off in their reference.
 
As GL said:

The CBSC are idiots.

I like WWF, I think it's damn entertaining and I think some of those guys are amazing athletes, but WWF style wrestling is NOT a sport.
