Tango, the game

Nota: Citirea acestui articol poate provoca diverse emotii, daca va stiti sensibili, mai bine evitati! ;)

Hai s-o luam altfel… am putea sa ne gandim ca tango este un joc ca si fotbalul (ca tot e acum campionat!), voleiul, golful, shahul si de ce nu sheptica! Si ca orice joc, are regulile lui! Diferenta intre alte jocuri si tango este ca la tango nu castiga nimeni, pentru ca nu este o competitie! Iar jocul este pentru placerea de a-l juca! Similitudinea ar fi ca exista un teren si jucatori, iar producerea accidentelor si nerespectarea regulilor jocului sunt penalizate… si colo si colo!

Am urmat indicatia lui Dos Centavos (multumesc Dos Centavos!) si am dat o cautare pe Google; iata ce am gasit: “cateva” reguli ale tango-ului! (pentru reducerea spatiului voi pune cateva cuvinte sau titluri din textele respective, si link-urile catre surse, mai ales ca nu am drepturi de autor asupra scrierilor acelea), lista ar putea fi foarte lunga... :
