Jazz requires the ability to improvise, rather than memorize. Perhaps that's its appeal to a number of leading classical string players, like Yehudi Menuhin and Yo Yo Ma, who have made jazz recordings. Perhaps it's more intellectually challenging than playing the same notes over and over. I don't have a real strong interest in jazz, but I have better sense than to assume that my preferences are necessarily a sign of superiority.<br /> A rhetorical question was asked about why listening to a fiddler was a more worthwhile activity than watching football, when both are passive activities. Learn to read and follow a thread.<br /> No one, except Blacks, supports BRA more than the educated, the same people who fund classical music. It is they who have made MLK worship the law of the land. No, they don't wear football jerseys, they put Obama stickers on their cars instead. <br /> <br /> If you could read and comprehend whole paragraphs instead of picking a phrase or sentence here or there, you would grasp that nobody has claimed or implied that all football players are smart, or that watching football makes you tough. You might even recognize that the football posts and much of the subsequent comments are concerned with restoring the tradition of the student-athlete. Anybody here been praising SEC for filling their squads with dumb brutes? Anybody here praise Michael Vick or suggest that he was fit to lead the nation? Anybody advocate letting your life revolve around watching football or basketball? You are fighting straw men. Very impressive. <br /> BTW, name-calling is unpersuasive among intelligent adults.

The fact is, White people who listen to classical music are much more likely to be liberals than White people who watch football. While it does not require more than average intelligence to be a musician, it also very clearly requires no character at all. <br /> <br />The reason that Greek philosophers favored athletics was their belief in well-roundedness, a sound mind in a sound body. That is exactly why football teams and the like were established at the Ivy League universities over a century ago. The scholars who ran those institutions did not want to produce a bunch of clever, spineless fops, but instead men fit to lead a strong nation. A society that exalts music or painting and denigrates athletics or manual trades will be an effete society, much like BRA. <br /> Whether on not he enjoys sports, an intelligent man can recognize their value, and see that restoring them to their proper place and former integrity is in his nation's best interest.

Therefore, sports are a relevant subject for this blog. And the physical is part of life to be embraced, not rejected in favor of being a pretentious, pseudo-intellectual twat.<br /><br />Also, sports have been an important part of American culture and identity. The concepts of good sportsmanship, working hard, and never giving up have traditionally been taught and idealized through sports, though less so in recent years, unfortunately. <br /><br />Sadly, many white racialists think they have to defend themselves from the charge of being a stupid racist by being overly intellectual and pretentious in the way they talk and write. You don't have to do that; you just have to be honest, that's all, and let the chips fall where they may.<br /><br />Intellectual pursuits are all well and good but citing classical composers for cheap effect and trying to cast yourself as too good for this world is childish, self-indulgent bullshit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3890530692790573387.post-41666754926688581302011-08-29T13:39:13.583-07:002011-08-29T13:39:13.583-07:00"Old-line SEC fan here.

There's no reason at all that we have to make a choice between brains <b>or</b> brawn. The two aren't mutually exclusive,and having some of both confers a lot of advantages. The same race that won the battle at Marathon and fought the Persians to a draw at Thermopylae also left us <i>The Odyssey</i> and <i>The Republic</i>.<br /><br />I'm not a fan of sports in general,but I cycle,kayak,and do a lot of physical activity that relates to my work. And I try to read as much as I can,on subjects that interest me,however I'm at a loss when the lunch table conversation turns to pro and college ball,as it usually does,and there's a thing that I've noticed.<br /><br />The sports fans with whom I work-call it half the men on any given job-are capable of some very good analysis of the weekend's games. They can recite,from memory,statistics,rules decisions,and specific plays from games that are sometimes years in the past,and then are capable of sitting there and explaining why this play/ruling/ref call/whatever was so important and how it effected the rest of the season,etc. And for the love of all the gods,don't get me started on the men who have kids on the local high school team-those guys have hard drives in their heads.<br /><br />Now here's my point. <br /><br />Intelligence in sports fans in most definitely not lacking. But that intelligence ought to be used for figuring out how BRA is going to be brought to an end. Or at least some of that intelligence should be used for that,and if the folk that I work with are a fair sample,there should be plenty of brains left over to analyze the Sunday game.<br /><br />Any ideas on how we go about hijacking some of those little gray cells????<br /><br />Ex Gladio LibertasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3890530692790573387.post-3453190751950892482011-08-29T06:47:29.988-07:002011-08-29T06:47:29.988-07:00had to share this "funny"...
