This was an extremely excellent and concise description of the sport. Thank you very much

[@SophisticatedDogCat]

This sport is dope. It’s so simple, just raw strength and speed, that’s it.

[@Theeporkchopxprezz]

I would love to play this.

If you want to comment a way that the crowd could make noise without distracting the players, may there never be enough of your subscribers to make a half set!

[@ximbabwe0228]

Fascinating, as a player, how do you know which way to face?

[@rbeforme]

Because there's a big ass goal behind them that spans the entire width of the court....come on now

[@ximbabwe0228]

@@rbeforme I'm impressed you can see that through a blindfold

[@Northside-um1ry]

Well put
