Anyhow, I took it as a rhetorical question, because that's what you indicated, but one that required a response since it was predicated on a misunderstanding of what I had previously written.

My fault for using the overtly subliminal . Next time I won't be so ambiguous with my response.

Then I will drop that issue from this debate.

Those children can play soccer/futbol as you describe because the nature of the game ("nature" being the root of "natural" -- an important word in one of my earlier posts in this exchange) is such that those sorts of conditions and equipment allow it. Ice is a natural part of hockey.

No snow, no hockey. Makes complete sense. The NHL should rid themselves of all teams that are unable to play the whole season outdoors. Then just for kicks, once a year have an indoor game.

Oh, what have I wrought by writing that?

And see, I can laugh:

Here's a novel idea, Bud Selig should abolish inter-league games. After all, that's an unnatural thorn in the side of baseball's purists.

Let's not forget to require all dome teams, baseball and football, to vacate their respective cities. Games played indoors?!? Utterly ridiculous.
