[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basketball Basketball] is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netball Netball] for men, the ''real'' game that encourages dribbling and other such uncouth behaviour that was sanitised out of the ladies' version. However, it is itself woozy compared to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulama_game Ulama], as the losing side are seldom publicly sacrificed.

===Judo===
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judo Judo] is a frightening sport, in that it's not always the biggest and strongest person who wins. Being thrown flat on your back and forced to submit by girl who's shorter and younger than you is certainly a humbling experience.

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gymnastics Gymnastics] used to just be thought of as an excuse for ogling women in skimpy costumes. However, the march of progress has lead to a great reduction in the mammaries that made this an interesting prospect, leading to a disillusionment with the sport.
