Depression
Depression is having a sunny day, mild temps, off work, and being so sore and swollen you can not get your helmet on.

I feel your pain buddy...well not necessarily your pain but the depression part...
Depression is having 2 more months of the riding season left and having some old lady not follow the rules of the road and causing you to total your bike...
Depression is stepping out your front door everyday to go to work and looking at your bike mangled and not even being able to work on it for fear insurance company screw

My psychologist is on its way to me now in the form of a check from my insurance company... and a day off tomorrow to build some shelving, clean the house and tear down my SH... and maybe a 6 pack
That's all the therapy I need for the time being :P

I dont know, I think a broken collar bone & ribs is way worse. You can see the sun and breathe the air... Every day above ground is a good day. You will ride again.
Lots of poor slobs NEVER ride a motorcycle their whole lives.

More for you depression hogs. Having to put the bike up early because I was clumsy, fell in my cellar working on a project and tore a rotator cuff. Post operation healing time before removing annoying sling.......six to eight weeks of which I am only in eleven days. Sucks just sitting around. May be allowed to go back to work after November 1st. This is the first time in 38 years of my working career that I've had to take more then a few days off and the inactivity by far seems worse then the operation. Needless to say I am even now looking forward to spring 2013!

Depression - being off work for 21 months (dont ask) then finally getting a job outside my chosen industry - I'm now selling Jeep Chrysler and Dodge products when my veins bleed Ford blue! ARGH!!!!!!!!
I broke my femur years ago in 2 places (yes that effing HURTS!!) and it took me 6 months to learn how to walk again. Time really does heal all wounds and what time cant heal - beer and doctor prescribed Tylenol with codine can!
Chin up everyone, at least we have a place where we can vent our frustrations and no one judges you for it. Life is pretty good after all.
Anyone wanna buy a Jeep ?

Why would anyone WATCH sports on TV?
1: To be classified a Sport, one must be exposed and or subjected to possible death.
Football makes the cut, Baseball and Hockey only by the slimmest of margins.
2: Playing sports is the goal.. watching them, only worth the time spent if you're at the game, little league to AAA baseball in personal is worlds better then any "sport" game watched on TV.
3: Id rather be riding, wrenching, building any day than sitting in front of a TV watching others play a game.
4: If i were forced to watch others play a game on TV, I truly would be depressed.

HRCA, it's always a shuffle when Fall season comes around to see what is going to be on my big screen, Hockey or Football. So far this year, it's a no brainer...Steelers fan here.

If figure I've earned the right to watch...and criticize the players.
Did I mention I still have all oif my teeth.... Sorry Erik, I couldn't let that one by.
Heal quickly !

Are you kidding me?! Getting smashed into the boards by a 220# guy, who's skating at speeds up to 30 mph. And ice is much harder than astro turf. Not to mention the modified bicycle helmets hockey players wear (football players look comical to me now-a-days, with the heavy gear they wear), and a frozen hard rubber puck that travels at speeds up to 100+ mph. Did I mention missing teeth?
Oops, sorry Marquez, I forgot the reason for your thread.

YES= Sport
No= Entertainment
Just me, but Id rather be on the grass playing a game flag foot ball, tossing the ball for my dogs, wrenching on a daily driver or building a new motor for one of the toys any day over watching others on TV play a game...

Yes I get it, hocky is as much a sport as football or rugby.. And no doubt I dont want to be on the ice with the puck trying to get to the other goal...... those boys have *****...

I play defence, and play twice a week. I'm not exposed to the possibilty of death. However, when I block a slap shot comming in at warp speed, and hits me in place were there is little protection (ankle for example), I leave the ice bruised up.

Hockey is great but I feel like half of it needs to be in slow motion to see everything going on. Football moves worlds slower so you get those replays. They need better cam coverage for hockey. Maybe a flying drone or cams in the boards and under the ice.
Both great sports. Almost literally apples and oranges, but I grew up in eye shot of Canada so had WAY more fun in hockey. Football is fun til its organized, then it sucks. (to play anyway)

I gotta agree with E.Marquez...
I'd rather be doing anything else then watching sports on TV. My significant other and her cousin(female) who both live at my place and are obsessed with sports and if I have nothing else to do I will sit in front of the TV and get my laptop and do research.
I'd rather play sports then watch them, and yes through out my entire school career(excluding college) I played a sport every season...

Rugby
Go try & play that!
But I've not been in on what the problem is between NHL Players & Owners, let me guess - $$$$$$$
And I just got back into hockey last season, these 2 asshats are really screwing themselves.
Lastly, any day above ground is VERY good - Go Ride those sweet VTRs

And now we have come full circle..
I cant get a ******* helmet on my head..........
Compensated this morning by skipping my breakfast Percocet and took the Shelby for a spin..
Not the same as the bikes.... but 170 down a lonely straight and drifting though some nice corners at speed comes a close second and will have to do for a few weeks.
NOTE: No cattle were harmed in the making of giddy feelings this morning on an otherwise closed road.

This thread went around pretty quick in 4 days. From,depression, pain, anger, how hockey is better than any other sport out there, back to riding our VTRs, which most of us in this thread cant.

she is my significant other as well as my girlfriend... I think life partner is generic and has no meaning of endearment...she is also the mother of my 10 month old son and I would consider us married but the law doesnt think so...
or in other words that woman that I love completely who drives me up a ****** wall sometimes... :P

Yeah well we cant all ride Ortega or DeLuz or Azuza and GMR all year round (DAMN I miss those years) But the good ol' Purple, Silver and Black Pulled thru last season (finally). You can take boy outta SoCal but you cant the SoCal outta the Boy, I think thats how that country song goes. But the Quackers had a rough season. I wish we could see them battle this season, but they look like they are in NO rush to settle this one up any time soon.
