The manliest sport in the world.

Actual thread title. I'm not going to say this is going to be my favorite sport like the article claims but any sport where a battle royale is possible is intriguing.

Winner!

too bad the second video is private...

That isnt soccer

 

[BoomerD]

That isnt soccer

No it's not...which is why, unlike soccer, it just might qualify as a manly sport...

I hope you know that offended me.

No.

It's either Powerlifting or Wrestling/MMA.

hah, sounds like hockey, but, on the grass instead of the ice....

 

[Drako]

Looks like an adult version of "smear the queer".

Hurling is more badass.

Hurling is more badass.

Nah...only pansies puke...and competitive puking is emo.

Hurling

Meter broken?

I'll add competitive eating contests as a third option.

Every day we are one step closer to The Running Man.

(Side note: Richard Dawson is still alive? Wow.)

Warranty void.

Long time lurker, decided to start posting.

 

[edro]

So... a fast guy can run around everyone and score every time?
That sport seems stupid and more like an excuse to fight multiple people.

Real Royal Rumble?

You are giving Boomer too much credit. The man cut off his hair to work for the man, how could he know what hurling is?

Killian, here's your Subzero, now plain zero.

What is NOT to love about that movie?

[Phokus]

Mixing MMA with a team sport involving a ball? I'm sorry but that's just dumb.

 

[Miramonti]

Lame.

Nothing at all, that movie is from back when Arnold was cool and smoked cigars and grew a beard.

 

[Krazy4Real]

Yeah, that wouldn't be my favorite sport.

 

[bfdd]

Hmm... close, but I still think the World Beard and Moustache Championships is the manliest. If you don't think beard or moustache growing is a sport, you're obviously a woman.

Hurling

So...based on that wiki link...the Irish play a game that involves running around hitting a ball with sticks..THEN they hurl?

You'd think a people who are notorious drunkards would know better.
