I confidently expect Scotland to be Elephant polo gold medallists in the London Olympics unless of course the bitter English don't allow Elephant polo in the games :D Title: Re: Scotland World Champions Post by: mikkyT on December 07, 2005, 06:18:38 PM Given than the Scots team all train on bicycles, I think they should introduce bicycle polo to the olympics.

It is a opinion that a lot of top pro's share.
I figure that Poker is a sport that taxes your mental and physical endurance. Playing for 12 -14 hours is pretty taxing. |
