Unfortunately, the good old fashioned hardcore "smashing people into walls" effect is lost

Check the picture. They've got SCUBA gear on.

Really stupid sport if you ask me...

Stupid yes. The article said they had to come up for air, though. That's just ridiculous.

....There are no words to describe how absolutely bizarre that sport is. What next? Aerial basketball?

"And Bob gets the basketball. He leaps... he goes to slam dunk... Oh no! He's leaped off of the arena! Now he's falling to his death!"

That sounds really lame, and cold. Street hockey is where it's at.

The physics of that are just confusing to me... I keep thinking they'll fall throught the ice at some point, fall out of the water, and some how end up in the sky.

Especially if the new "sport" is just an old sport played upside down.

I've heard that some people decided to play the longest game Monopoly underwater, and they had to make all their own parts so they wouldn't get soggy or float away. It isn't exactly a sport, but it's still weird.

That looks weird and stupid to me. I don't have any interest in sports that are similar to the original except that one important rule, like here.

I have to agree that the image looks computer-generated to me.
