WTF?

[Goober McTuber]

I was reading a bit about Rick Reilly’s new book where he looks for the dumbest sport in the world. One that he tried is called “ferret legging”.

In the sport of ferret legging, competitors tie their trousers at the ankles before placing two ferrets inside and securely fastening their belts to prevent the ferrets from escaping. Each competitor then stands in front of the judges for as long as he can. Competitors cannot be drunk or drugged, nor can the ferrets be sedated. In addition, competitors are not allowed underwear beneath their trousers, which must allow the ferrets free access from one leg to the other, and the ferrets must have a full set of teeth that must not have been filed or otherwise blunted. The winner is the person who lasts the longest.

The sport is said to involve very little "native skill", simply an ability to "have your tool bitten and not care". The current world champion, Reg Mellor, is credited with instituting the practice of wearing white trousers in ferret legging matches, to better display the blood from the wounds caused by the animals. Competitors can attempt, from outside their trousers, to dislodge the ferrets, but as the animals can maintain a strong hold for long periods, their removal can be difficult.

Reilly's as big of a paste-eating tard as you are. No surprise you're reading into his work.

[Goober McTuber]

You claim to be a writer and you’re bagging on Rick Reilly?

That's fucking priceless, you witless, pus-sucking jizz sponge.

[Screw_Michigan]

Reilly hasn't wrote anything compelling in years, and certainly not since he moved over to ESPN, who is dumbing down his content to make it palatable for paint-huffing cock-cavities like yourself.

Get fucked.

[Goober McTuber]

You critiquing anyone else's writing is like KFC Paul giving diet advice.

I enjoyed Reilly's writing when he was with SI, but haven't read much, if anything, by him since he left. His talent doesn't translate well to TV - he sucks at trying to be funny or enlightening in front of the camera. He should stick to pounding the keyboard.

[Goober McTuber]

Agreed. And Screwball should stick to pounding sand.

I don't have anything against Reilly, personally, I just don't care about his work with ESPN. I can totally see Gobbles sucking Mitch Albom's dick when ever puff piece he writes comes out. Reilly did good work with SI and I would read it then, but that's a different medium. ESPN's shit (especially the magazine) is totally geared towards people with short attention spans (i.e. Gobbles, teenagers) and is watered down Reilly. I just don't care for it.

[Goober McTuber]

Number one, I can’t stand Mitch Albom. But rack your ability to picture one man sucking another man's dick, you cum-drunk Derron-wannabe.

Number two, where did I reference ESPN, you shit-eating, jizz-mopping fuckwit? I was talking about a BOOK Reilly’s written. Ass-fuck yourself with a wood rasp.

Nice pom-poms, tubby.

This is a Canadian "sport"?

Actually, it was apparently popular among coal miners in Yorkshire, England.
