Court Appearance
I've never been a fan of professional basketball. I just can't get into a sport that's played by outsized freaks. Same with professional football. Soccer makes sense. You can be normal size, or even abnormally small, as long as you're a great athlete. It's also true of baseball. At the other end of the spectrum, professional "Rock, Scissors, Paper" holds no interest for me. But I'm surprised it's not an Olympics event. After all, it does combine physicality with mental toughness.

Dumb question... what is "rock,scissors,paper"?
Cool cartoon!
"Rock, scissors, paper." It's a kids' game, Jean. A clenched fist is rock, two fingers is scissors, a flat hand is paper. Two people play, and on a count of three they throw one of the above without knowing what the other player will throw. Rock breaks scissors and wins. Scissors cut paper and wins. Paper covers rock and wins. Lately it's become an adult betting game in Vegas with high stakes and TV coverage. Some people don't have enough to do with their lives.
