You know what I love about CM? It's that the misery is always tempered with humor and appreciation and wonder. And all of the CM videos remind me that we hate them AND love them.
At my dream college the only sports allowed would be Chess, Kendo, and the fake sport Kosho from "The Prisoner." Why those three? No college "sports leagues" (in truth gov't. subsidized farm teams) for any of them, though the former Soviet states and the Chinese might challenge Strelnikov Polytechnic in chess for kicks and giggles.
@Strelnikov: Aww, no Sumo? It's the only sport where the wedgie is a traditional move!
But then I would catch hell from the pro-fat/pro-skinny groups, Japanese nationalists, the Filipino Sumo mob, and the rest of that jazz. I picked those "sports" off the top of my head because I want my imaginary college/university/diploma mill to spend the maximum on educating, not the acessory things that have taken over the colleges because of the Sports Mafia (AL,NL,NFL,NBA, etc.)

ReplyDeleteIs there a college that offers a Pole Dancing scholarship? I'd never get one, but I could be competitive in the Sleeping-Bag-on-a-Staircase Luge.
