Isn't it cool that they named a sport after a BBMB moderator?

Too bad it's a gay sport, for pussies.

I got it at college as my extension study thing, even though it was like my number 12 choice from the list. (n)

yeah, i heard it from some old professional player. apparently at an elite level, a really good player can hit it faster than any other ball :confused: i don't know if it's true
it wouldn't hurt if it hit you though.

well there's baseball pitchers that can threw a fuckn' ball at over 100 mph. and i think tennis balls can be served at around that speed as well. i can't see a shuttle cock with all the shit on it designed to slow it down hitting 100 mph. i think someone was shitting you. i need some proof then i'll beleave

I'm pretty sure the average womens tennis serve is about 100mph, the top mens is something like 240km's, or 150mph by Andy Roddick.

badminton rules. case closed.

our upstairs neighbor's girlfriend is a professional badminton player and she smoked everyone at our labor day cookout badminton tournament.

she has a website even. she's sponsored by wilson. she fucking smashed our last shuttlecock to pieces and said she'd get us more.

We had a badminton set when I was a kid. My brothers and I made our own rules for it though, like you could hit it up to 3 times on your side if you wanted to, there were no out of bounds unless it landed on the roof BUT if we were playing doubles then if it lands on the roof, it's still not out of bounds because you could go on the roof and pass it to your team mate... it was funner that way.

When I was little, my best friend and I used to play in her yard, and one day our younger brothers decided to try it. They got the birdie stuck in a tree and went to my friend's mother for help. In all seriousness, she gave them a can of pork and beans to throw at it. I can't remember now if it worked, but my brother and I still laugh at that.

I would kick your ass at badminton. I was forced to play it and now I'm better than all the gay homos who play it by choice.

Maybe you could, but it doesn't change the fact that you're gay and your mom won't leave me alone. Tell her it's too expensive for me to fly her out here to the US and that she can keep those handcuffs I bought her.
