zequist Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 American sports annoy me no end and golf just doesnt interest me. How wonderfully provincial of you. Of course, most of my fellow Americans would rather shove hot pokers under their fingernails than watch cricket, rugby, or polo (or soccer, to be perfectly honest), and I've been witness to more arguments than I care to remember between NASCAR fans and F1 fans who can't understand why anyone would ever be interested in watching the *other* kind of racing, so I suppose it cuts both ways. Personally, I think fishing is the most boring sport on the planet, and I can't believe that they actually televise fishing tournaments nowadays. Only time I'd ever turn one of those on is if I was on a bad insomnia kick and getting desperate for something to put me to sleep. Runners-up in the "never did much for me" category: boxing, figure skating, and platform diving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozastuta Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Tennis, why oh why the BBC use my Lisence fee money to continue showing Wimbledon every summer really does baffle me, its a load of old shite, a bit like our hopefuls. American sports i just find dull and uninspiring, i could see why the NFL may get a following but its not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 Cricket.. I just don't see the point in it. Point is in the region where the Umpire Stands, just to the side of the stumps there's also a Silly Point which is much closer to the stumps.

jamiemaher85 Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Cricket can be boring to watch on tv but i love to play, cricket at summertime in a park with your mates and a crate of beer. Ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exact same reasons, Darts players and commentators need to seriously lighten up, they throw darts at a board in a dark room. I mean even when Phil Taylor plays it's still at a venue that's done up to look like a pub. It's not a sport, it's a nice little activity to occupy drunks that happen to be in the pub at 1:00 in the morning. polo, curling, any olympics game except boxing.american football. how on earth can you hate basketball? its well good imo. Basketball is awesome. I'm going to try and start following it this season. Los Angeles Lakers are my favourite team, I watched Russia and Lithuania in action at the Beijing Olympics and it was a great game! Does anyone know how to get NBA coverage in the United Kingdom? Thanks in advance Curling.i mean, wtf? sliding stones across the ice?? Amongst the other sports I hate, Tennis, no skill just two men hitting a ball back and forth to each other. Sailing, it's a guy in some wet water freezing his nuts off trying to move a sail towards the wind in order to get his boat to the finish line in order to get onto dry land and have a warm cup of tea. Totally poinless, nearly as pointless as fishing which is now considered a sport. -Fishing -Tennis -Sailing -Curling -American Football (It's rugby for puffs) -Darts -Golf (Yeah, just use your hand its easier) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy the blue Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Water Polo ... wtf is all that about. Did you see Rory and Paddy's big adventure, its was about obscure pub/local sports across the country and they took part in all of them. There was not one less exciting than water polo and that included bike bog snorkling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iggy Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Can't stand synchronised swimming, ice dance, figure skating. Lukewarm on cricket, anything to do with horses and baseball. Other than that I can put up with most sports, used to dislike ice hockey too. It doesn't come across very well on the box, but a friend of mine persuaded me to go to a match a few years back and I loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
