some thoughts on sports
We're watching water polo.
Who actually plays water polo?
Do you know/have you ever even heard of anyone playing water polo?
And how have those little hats with the bows under the chin not been modernized?
The players can palm the ball!
Oh, I would faint, be winded, in mere seconds, Middle offers.
Meanwhile, on another channel, they are playing handball, which looks exactly like water polo but is on land, with a smaller ball.
Why is this not called land polo? I ask.
Because land polo is played with a horse, Middle contends.
We nod solemnly.
