unsophisticated?

["James Tyson" <jftyson@domain.elided>]

Mr. Smith, now that the tenor of your comments has changed from pompous to 
patronizing, how about educating us louts as to  what exactly qualifies as a 
"sophisticated" sporting event?Could you be referring to those sophisticated 
Canadians who watch snowmobile races or attend lumberjack events where guys 
saw through various kinds of wood? How about those sophisticated European 
fans who enjoy beating each other to death at soccer(excuse me,football) 
games or standing two feet from the roadway during rally events or hanging 
from billboards like bats at Monza? Or could you be referring to those 
French and Spanish fans who enjoy watching guys in funny suits with tight 
pants poke swords into bulls?Maybe you're referring to the British fans who 
enjoy attending fairs where the events include throwing the caper and 
Wellywogging(a highly complex sport where the participants try to throw a 
Wellington boot as far as possible)Please,I'm just an unsophisticated 
American (with a doctorate) so help me out here-what qualifies as a 
sophisticated sport-polo,tennis,chess,maybe? Another question I'd really 
like for you to answer-how many motor racing events have you ever personally 
attended?Have you been to an F1 race?...or NASCAR?.. I've attended all kinds 
of racing events and the one thing that applies to them all is that watching 
them on TV does not compare to being there.Is your statement that stock car 
racing is boring based on personal observation ?Finally,to all of you who 
will now ask me to avoid personal attacks and/or stick to Alfa content,I 
don't like SUVs either
