Why can't we just use Tag Prefixes like they're meant to be and keep all sports related discussion to the Gen. Entertainment section like it was intended to be used? It would allow things to 'stand out' by having those prefixes like [SPORT] or [WORLD CUP] in the header of the topic. Save me having to knock up a subforum/section that would probably only really get used for the World Cup and then forgotten about (kind of like the Life Hacks section....)
I'm pretty sure it wouldn't only get used for the World Cup. It would get used for NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA, and other sports, or at least I'd make sure it would be used for all of them. It would probably end up being more active than the life hacks subforum anyways.
