Not at all – but I’ll put it in little words so that you’ll be able to understand – I go to games, I drink, sometime I get drunk.

I do not swear, stumble, start trouble, get loud, throw-up or generally aggravate the people around me – this is not the perception I have of my drunken self, it is genuinely how I am, but I am drunk.

I am not embarrassed about my ‘drunken behaviour’ as there is nothing to be embarrassed about, in fact if you were to pass me you would never know – but I assure you I would be drunk.

If this concept of inebriation (that means being drunk) is alien to you then you are very naïve. Not all people in a state of intoxication act like you do when you are ed.

I was on about you trying to get an answer of LS16 regarding drinking



maybe you SHOULD try and understand

TIA

Keep out of it then, go count mushrooms or whatever stimulates you.

Tampax for RR

You find it acceptable to get drunk don't you Loz?

I think the question for both you and LS16 is, do you find it difficult to attend a game of RL for 1 hour and 20 mins without being drunk?

Maybe its a lack of confidence that drink counter balances?

Havent been drunk at a game for ages


HTH

So you aren't drunk then?


Taken from the English Oxford dictionarydrunk
past part. of DRINK.

• adjective affected by alcohol to the extent of losing control of one’s faculties or behaviour.

• noun a person who is drunk or who habitually drinks to excess.

That's why i put "could"
Although i do think he could of possibly timed his jump better but i'm not after a scape-goat!

I thought you’d find if difficult to understand.

I know what being drunk is and I know when I’m drunk.

Could you explain how you can possibly have a definitive explanation over a state of mine?

Its like trying to define mental illness – when does a personality quirk become a mental illness?

When does having a few drinks become being drunk?

It is impossible to define as there are differing levels, at what point do you apply your dictionary definition? Is it when someone first slurs their words or stumbles or is it when they’re face down in their own vomit - catatonic?

I drink at games, I sometimes get drunk – I don’t harm or upset anyone around me, so what exactly is your problem?

I now know what its like reading a little bit of Southstander gold when im involved its brilliant.

Not disagreeing with your general point Lorenzo but I don't think Catalans home form is that staggering - already lost to Saints, Bradford and Cas in the 5 home games prior to yesterday.

Look at our home tho, still I bet some clubs dont like coming to Headingley

Not agreeing with titchy here (heaven forbid) but offering food for thought.

Until about 2004 I very rarely drank more than a pint before games but then then I started to have 2-3 before.

By 2005/6 I regularly got drunk before games. I loved it and thought I was the life and soul of everyone's party.

In 2007 I pretty much stopped drinking prior to matches again and found I appreciated the games far more.

Admittedly I no longer drink at all (total of a pint of lager in the last 10 and a bit months) and I've developed the self righteous arrogance about drinking normally associated with ex-smokers (I'm one of them too) concerning smoking; but the thing I did notice was that other people who got p[iis[/ised before games were embarrassing.

I strongly suspect that what I thought was the life and soul of the party may well have seemed borish, loud, offensive and occasionally aggressive to other people.

No, I think you follow your team no matter what style of play they have or whatever form they are in. You dont have a god damm right to have exciting rugby played for you, I would be quite happy to have boring rugby, if it gets points and wins games, so be it

Like your "im not bright" lark, smart coming from you
