The White Athlete thread drew out a question or a tangent if you will that struck me as odd.. how much influence does sex have upon your life.

Does it dictate life decisions (where you live, your profession, your overall health, etc.) you make?

Where does it rank in your priorities overall.

So I thought.. why not create a simple straw poll that would place it against another life passion of sorts.. sports.


Which controls aspects of your life more.. sex or sports.

Sports is why times between sex is longer. Women are totally evil.

I'm not controlled by either - i just choose to indulge in them.

It is simple for me.. sports influences my life far greater than sex itself.

Family.. well sports takes a back seat, but not to sex itself.


Family
Religion
Friends
Financial considerations

as examples all rank above sports for me.. so that kind of explains where I place the influence of sex itself.

Sports - I'd prefer living in Wisconsin to get Packers games how they should be, free.
Profession - I feel I'm skilled enough in several trades that I can find employment in most areas.
Health - I'm in good health.

What's best for my daughter ranks highest on my decision making. The last couple years I've been told I need to lighten up in that regard. I'm told I can go out, have fun, date around, etc ... and still be a good date. And in fact that I need to do those things. I disagree. I don't want to lose sight of my primary task and that's raising the best daughter I can and being the best role model for the girls I am a father figure to.

I do like working out and one reason is sex. I don't work out to get laid, but I'd be lying if I said one of my motivating factors while doing cardio wasn't to increase sexual stamina. I like being able to pick up my girl and have my way standing up or against the wall. I don't want to struggle or shake while holding her. We all know the first words will be "what, am I fat?".

When I was a teenager, I struggled to make my car payments. Having a convertible "sports" car was a massive chick magnet so even though I could have sold it sooner, I didn't because of the girls I was getting.



I don't know if this answered your question, its best I could throw up.



Edit, seen your answer after I submitting mine. Sports influences my life more than Sex. I keep Sunday's open for NFL. In my last relationship, I was lucky if I was able to get it two or three times a week. One of the days happen to be a Monday night when the Packers were playing. I knew if I went to bed at 9pm, I'd be lucky. I knew the chances were slim if I went to bed 11pm because she'd be sleeping. I took my chances. I'm guessing that means Sports is more important than Sex?

Interesting concept for a thread. "an addition of one"* to Shawn for starting it.

Okay, honesty compels me to admit that I think of each of them, ahem, a couple times a day. Cough, cough.

But I can't say either one influences me much at all anymore. Sports I suppose a little more, since at least in football season I do try to keep Sunday afternoons free for the game. But even there the level of influence is pretty soft -- unless it's a compelling game, I'm liable to spend time chatting about random babble, reading, doing work, etc.

UWGB had some good majors, but as far as a business school it didn't particularly rank high. I avoided UW and most of the other affiliates because they all had a football program and it would have eaten away at my soul always asking what if.

After working around the country (well before Sunday Ticket and MLBTV) I hated not being able to watch my teams and being subjected the programming of the networks or having to seek out a bar to catch the game.. or installing the old gigantic dishes every couple of months.. so I made a decision to move back to Wisconsin with a great deal of consideration to sports. Still single at the time.

I have always planned my weekly schedule around sports.. football.. baseball.. if something else important conflicted.. sports took a back seat.

But I have never done any of that for sex. But that doesn't mean I didn't get any or had a reserved sex life.. it just meant that it was more of a natural event that just took place. Never seems to have a problem fulfilling that need or desire.. but I definitely didn't make life choices to obtain more of it or what not.

If I went out to the club... and I happened to strike up an interest.. and it was mutual.. great. If I met someone in the grocery store or at work.. which was more of the norm than a club or a party.. and it led to a relationship or knocking boots.. awesome. But then again.. it was more of a dessert or extra bonus in life than a priority in life.

I think it came down to the harsh reality that I wasn't good enough for professional football and no matter how hard I tried, I would never be. I had to accept that after my final football injury at the age of 24, trying to make it on a semi-pro level.

So came acceptance.

And with that, sex started becoming more and more important and sports became a lot less important.

Jocks get laid because they leave the house more than nerds do. Simple as that.

Fan Shout
packerfanoutwest (2h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (2h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (3h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (5h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (5h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (5h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (5h) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (5h) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (5h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (5h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (5h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (6h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (7h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (7h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (7h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (7h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (7h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (8h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (8h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (8h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (9h) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (9h) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (9h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (9h) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (9h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (10h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (10h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (11h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (11h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (11h) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (11h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (11h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (12h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (12h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (12h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (12h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (12h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (12h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
Zero2Cool (12h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
Zero2Cool (12h) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (12h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (12h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (12h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
Zero2Cool (12h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
packerfanoutwest (12h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
packerfanoutwest (12h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker
packerfanoutwest (12h) : if bucs win out they win their division
beast (12h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
