    Anyone else find this sport wrong?

    Brat Eating Contest I remember when they "Glutton Bowl" on FOX a few years back. I questioned the HUGE waste of food when they would dump a whole bunch of it on the middle of the stage. There are plenty of starving people out there, and yet this is a sport?? I'm not sure I get this...

    I wonder

    How many members who were at one time frequent posters have left the boards because of how ridiculous Dockside has gotten? I wish I had been around for longer when the Dockside Chat was really a cool place. When it was filled with jokes, humor, and overall friendly banter. Like many I came...

    Boating pictures.
