I haven't read this thread but I also think that threads about sports, should be in the sports forums. I'll start reading a thread and then someone will come on right in the middle and start talking about how their team won or something, and then the whole thread gets turned around. I'm not a sports fan and if I were, I would be on the Sports Forums.
Just as with the health stuff. A poster will come on a thread about a certain ailment and sure enough, another poster will come on and tell in full detail, all of "their" ailments, including all the meds they take, their last CBC result, etc...... Sorry, but there's a Forum for that too.
