Whilst reviewing the topics and comments stats for this site you can clearly see the distinction between Boxing and every other sport!

I think us boxing fans show we are the most consistent and debative (have I just made up a new word?) sport followers over every other member to this site

Therefore as Boxing is your biggest customer base (which even attracted Primetime in mentioning you) I would like to lobby on the home page that Boxing replaces Football as the top subject!

As trivial as it may be to scroll down a bit, I think the best sport by far should sit at the top - who's with me?

Well I think it should either be in popularity order, or at least fully alphabetically. Either way boxing would move up.

Strictly speaking, Rugby outstrips Boxing in terms of customer base.

I've never understood why it wasn't purely alphabetical actually. Especially as Football is undersubscribed but still at the top.

Is it really that different to watching Strictly Come Dancing?

Potentially slightly more homoerotic, but on occasion someone gets whacked with something.

Don't see Brucie going mental and folding up a steel chair and clocking Tess. It's not broadcast at least.

The thing that has got me is why is there a wrassling section on a sports debate site anyway?

Should it not be on some kind of TV Soap site of some kind?

But it has it's own section never the less

If anything it should be in the general discussion section as an indented hyperlink from the TV option 'where you can discuss your favourite shows'

Perhaps so, but remember you're on a site set up and run by Wrestling fans to discuss Wrestling with their Wrestling fan friends who also want to discuss Wrestling. Wrestling.

I'd agree that a reshuffle into full alphabetical order would be a good move, just for the record.

Since it was addresses to admins, plural, and since I seldom involve myself in layouts and logistics, I would say so.

Actually Alphabetical order would put American Football at the top!

No sport that is played in one country only and the fact its American should go at the top

Give it it's own section at the bottom like WRASSLIN or file it under 'G' for Gay Rugby
