Wrong. You put "Lakers" and "american football" in the same thought, within the same sentence, which leaves the reader with the impression that you're too dense to understand that you are making reference to two different sports, or rather a team from one sport and the league of another sport.

It would be like me saying "Who gives a fuck about Manchester United or Rugby?" (assuming Manchester United is a football team)

The sentence sounds ridiculous, so too does your title. It makes you look like a moron, I'm just pointing that out to you. You can sit there and argue with me, making yourself look more like an ape than before, or you can just shut up and let this thread drop off the face of the universe and try again tomorrow, hopefully with something more befitting of a Brit, whom are generally thought to be intelligent.

Your call of course.
You may attempt to justify your oversight all you like. In fact, the length of your reply respresents your attempt at doing so.

Impression of the reader you say, and in this case that reader was you. And you got the wrong impression. So who's dense?

To humour you, I was actually seeking feedback on 2 subjects derived from a thread title, not a sentance as you stated in your last reply.

If indeed you did say, "Who gives a fuck about Manchester United or Rugby?"

I would reply, "IMO Manchester United are the best football team in the world. And for Rugby, I like the game, and consider it a real sport where the competitors have no need to protect themselves with padding"

You see? Its quite easy to break down the question and address each point in turn.

You have been drawn in for my own entertainment purposes, period. While I've been out having a beer over lunch you've been here on GFY talking bullshit.

Thanks for your time!
