Just to voice my disgust as to how much attention it gets on TV and in the media.

I just don't get the mindset of doing it.
I'd never think of wading into a 12-page thread about the greatness of Springsteen to post a slam at him. I don't care for the NBA and am disgusted by how much attention it gets on TV and the media, but I don't post "NBA sucks" every time there's an NBA thread. It just seems pointless.
Unless, of course, you're trolling.

Go find a group of HS kids, half of whom can't get better than a C in Algebra II, breaking down pot odds at a poker table.
Say you don't like it, but smarter people do better at it, and it takes studying to be any good at it. This cannot be argued.

Good point. Very few dumb guys at poker tables of any consequence. Moneymaker comes off like a dolt and he's, by all accounts, a really intelligent guy. Then there are guys like Ferguson and Cunningham who are essentially math geniuses.
