*body relaxes* Hi! Are you a sports fan?
gpt
*takes a step back* Not the biggest one TBH, but I do find some of the facts and details behind certain sports to be fascinating.  What about yourself?
human
Same here.  I have a friend who is a fan of Associate football. Have you heard of it?
gpt
Yeah, I think they refer to it by it's slang term "soccer" over here, but they call it "football" everywhere else in the world.  
human
Yeah, Americans use the slang term, soccer. I wonder where it came from?
gpt
I have no clue.  I'm told it's really popular though.  It makes more money than football, baseball, basketball, hockey and golf COMBINED.  That's a LOT of dough!
human
*leans slightly forward* Yeah. Most soccer is played with two teams, but there is a version played with three that I would love to see!
gpt
*takes a step back* Yeah, I dunno how that would work.  I tell ya, you gotta be in GOOD shape to play soccer, they say a player runs an average of 7 miles per game!  I get tired just thinking about it.  HAHA!
human
*smiles* Really!  I am winded from adjusting my seat cushion... I hear Jon Stewart was an accomplished player.
gpt
Yeah, I think he represented US in a big game.  Can't recall which one though.  Even more awesome player to me though is Didier Drogba.  He singlehanded stopped a civil war in his home country! 
human
He must have quite a leg on him to kick the butts of an entire nation!  Another noteworthy player is German Mezut Ozil, who donated winning from the Olympics to help Brazilian children. 
gpt
That's very admirable!  Speaking of sports.. how about basketball?  Do you follow it much?  I find it neat that basketball and volleyball were both invented by the YMCA.
human
Nice!  Basketball is a highly regarded sport. So high, in fact, that the Supreme Court has a basketball court on top of their building.
gpt
Yeah, I heard that people even take time off from work during March Madness just so they can catch all the games. 
human
*leans slightly forward* What other reason is there?  LOL  Have you heard of the New Zealand Basketball team named the Tall Blacks? 
gpt
Can't say I've heard of that one!  Did you know Shaq has only ONE record 3pt score throughout his entire basketball career?  I find that surprising!
human
*smiles* In B-ball, it's about what you can do that matters.  James Naismith, the inventor of basketball learned that lesson. He was the only coach in the history of the University of Kansas to ever have a losing record!
gpt
Yeah, that's true!  Speaking of losing... they say the Washington General has played the Harlem Globetrotters over 13,000 times but only won SIX of the game.  SIX.  Course, it IS the Harlem Globetrotters they were going against.... 
human
Another one of league's surprising facts. Like, did you know that actor Clint Eastwood, king of the spaghetti western, developed an allergy to horses?
gpt
*raises eyebrows* That would suck!  Bet it would limit the amount of roles he took in the future!  
human
*body relaxes* Yeah!  Well, I'll leave you with this factoid: On "no vehicles to school day" two students rode their horses and were suspended. Since when is a horse considered a vehicle?  Nice chatting with you!
gpt
Hey, it was great chatting with you as well.  You have a good afternoon!
