Awesome Obscure Sports

In light the roundly disappointing boxing match from the past weekend, I would like to use this thread to show some love to sports that, while obscure, are much more deserving of our time and attention (and up to $99) than watching two over-the-hill gay-bashing politicians and wife-beating illiterates get paid tens of millions of dollars to paw at each other and hug.

 

So rather than continue to support the old guard, I think we should take the time to raise awareness to lesser known, but much more entertaining sports. After all, the only thing that separates these activities from a marquis boxing match is a bunch of hype.

 

I humbly nominate...whatever the hell this is:

Did nobody here watch "Full Metal Jousting" for the very short period it was on TV (February - April 2012)? It was pretty crazy. They came up with teams of inexperienced contestants and each team had a coach who taught them and each show culminated in the tournament of one guy from each team squaring off.

That was a great show.  I was so disappointed they didn't have a 2nd season.

      when we drafted Bryce Young that team might have been more talented than the team we currently have ?  that was the whole reasoning behind morgagting  our immediate future to trade up to #1 overall for BY. our front offices & owners felt like hey guess what the time is now to srike while the iron is hot go hire an All Star coaching staff we were only a Qb away from taking that next step ..just saying

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By csx · Posted

      I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.
