Message	As people have been raising objections over football being the national sport it looks like it will have to be changed. Any new ideas?

Message	I finaly found it.Drinking beer is a funny alternative. Why i do not like football , wel it's no longer a sport.It is an industry. My proposals swiming or figure skating.

Message	Motives.Both those sports require a healthy body and are using the brain . The model of a swimer champion or an ice skater downscaled to fir the average citizen of Hobrazia is very apealing to UCT. also i am sorry for the delay we will be more attentive to UB's messages.

Message	How is football not a sport? Yes, there is an industry based around the sport however I fail to see how it isn't a sport. Most sports have business based around them, Formula 1, Rugby, Hockey, Swimming, but all these are still classified as sports. Are you trying to tell me that the Sunday League players are highly paid and backed by big business?

Message	Why? I was fed up with this hanging around in debate now that you had posted. Also this could pass if the WSS and the Socialists (who came up with the idea originally) vote for it.
