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.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
