Guest jpclemmons Report post Posted February 2, 2004 baseball, the records are becoming more irrelevant each year with steroed injected players and its boring as hell to watch NCAA football, the way its run is a joke. especially with the B©S system. NASCAR, 500 laps going around in circles is mindboggley boring. MLS, I watch the english league for real football(socker) excitement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ant_7000 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2004 Sometimes playoff baseball is boring and becomes too strageic. Golf- all that green grass make me think of bbq's with the fam thou, but its hella boring. Nascar- Cars going into circles for 3 hours=boring Soccer- I don't know when does it actually ends, I cant get all excited when guys run 100 yards back forth to score 1 point during a whole game. NBA Eastern Conference- I hate they always schedule the two offensive struggling teams in a marquee match up, I don't want to watch the a Nets vs. Sixers vs. Celtics vs. Pistons game that the scores that'll be in the 70's in a 48 minute game. Think Over Coaching has fucked up the NBA game IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swift Terror 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2004 Sadly I have to say Golf. I never would have said it a few months ago, but since a 14 year old girl scored better than several PGA players--who are grown men and the world's best--I have to question its validity as a sport. In a few years she'll be smoking half of these guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the stuff we watch at this side of the pond(MLS, Mexican Liga) is like watching paint dry. The Euroleagues are the best places to watch the beautiful game.

As long as I have a team to root for I can get very into soccer. The World Cup is practically a holiday for me as I watched every game televised and rooted hardcore for England. MLS does suck though.

Insane Bump Machine 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 A game of soccer can be really exciting even if they score only 1 or 2 goals the whole game. Hell, I've seen 0-0 draws that had me on the edge of my seat at times. There's so much strategy involved that you don't get if you only watch a game here and there. There are also so many little things that make the game great, like 1 on 1 battles between two players who play on the same side of the pitch (Roberto Carlos vs. Salihamidzic/Sagnol in the upcoming Champion's League round will be very interesting), arguing about fouls and referee's decisions (dammit ref, that wasn't offside!! That's crap!), biting your nails when a penalty is given, the calmness before the storm of a Nedved free kick, great solo runs by players like Ronaldo or Michael Owen, and when a play clicks with some great passing and a nice finish it's just beautiful to watch. If you think that soccer is boring you just don't get it (yet). Believe me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just a case of passing the ball, keeping the ball close to you, and hitting it cleanly. If you can do that, you'll fit in in any game in the park. I'm a goalkeeper.

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2004 The fact that it's hated LEAGUE and not just hated SPORT makes this list a little longer than I'd have thought: Basketball bores the hell out of me in general, so the NCAA (both men's and women's), NBA, and WNBA would all have to make the list. NASCAR - I just can't fathom how this "sport" gets 100,000+ crowds to turn out and watch people drive in a circle. Even the accidents are less exciting then they used to be. Golf - both men's and women's. Dull, dull, dull. Even the highlights don't interest me. Men's tennis - serving 135 miles is impressive, but it makes the game boring to me. I'd rather watch a long point, with a good back-and-forth rally. (and women's tennis is Ok, because I find a lot of them attractive) But, most of all, the sport that I hate the most is MLB. It's most likely because I live in Boston, and most fans here spend more time talking about the Red Sox than they do all 3 other teams combined. But baseball itself is as boring as watching paint dry. I'd rather watch tranny porn than watch baseball, playoffs included. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then he passes this "ball" to guys known as the "tight end" and the "wide reciever." Presumably the wide reciever has more experience. Nope, football's not ghey at all.
