Forkers Central

I've been talking to one of my work collegues about an idea for a sport...

Basically it's how many clothes pegs you can stick to yr face. But we did realise that everyone's face size/shape is different, so an average would ahve to be determined and contestants given a handicap. Plus, the pegs would all have to a of consistant size and "peggage".

What do people think? Is this a good idea for a sport? Have we missed out anything obvious?

I played that in school. Not so much as a sport but more of a distraction from boredom.

hmm maybe

Now that the World Cup is over, I propose the next official Forker Shport be:

BOCCE!

I do know that Guiness maintains a world record for most pegs on face, but I don't know their policy regarding handicaps involving facial surface area. I also don't know if they aren't accepting new entries for safety reasons like they've done with sword-swallowing.

The World Cup may be over, but there is always a season of footie going....always.

And no offense... but after watching the U.S. play in the World Cup, this seems much more exciting:

there is no way women's pro basketball is lower than indoor soccer. must be a mistake.

Like I've ever given a rat's ass about what's popular in the US...

I think you made the mistake of watching the U.S. play soccer. Try watching the good teams next time...

All I'm saying is Americans would much rather see a 16 year old girl in tight spandex bang her cervix against a long uneven bar than see 22 grown men in tube socks and shin guards play "footie" with each other.

However, since some of you Forkers seem fascinated with swarthy men and their balls, I thought Bocce might satisfy your needs AND attract the interest of us non-footie fans. Besides, you can drink beer and play Bocce at the same time:
