Every sport can be exciting if you are watching the right teams/drivers/players. It all depends on who is playing.



But yeah baseball is pretty crap.

For me, baseball is like watching 100 miss swings before I see bat to ball. Such a drainer lol.

Olympic walking lol .. Pretty funny though

Yeah all endurance sports (cycling, marathons etc.) are all mega boring.

Baseball is good, its golf or cycling that gets me.

i am a true tragic. I will have any sport on tv whilst i am gaming as background noise.

I watch most sports but not a massive baseball or basketball fan.

Synchronized swimming or any swiiming event over 8 laps that doesnt have Perkins in it are my pet hates

i actually dont mind watching them, the sport i most hate is nascar, dirving around in a circle isnt that appealing for me. The only marginally interesting thing that happens is a crash.

nascar is good, but im not sure if i agree with it. couple of weeks ago marcus ambrose was 2 laps down in about 30 spot,there was a crash, yellow flag and he didn't pit, gets him back 1 lap, then they give him a wave around to get him on the lead lap and he finishes in top 10 ( wins heaps of cash and didn't look like it the whole race ). they could just cut it down to a 10 lap free for all

Golf. Tour De France is great, especially with Cadel Evans always near front.  ;D

He got the wave around cos he was the 1st placed car 1 lap behind the leaders.  They do this at every yellow flag.  It's actually a pretty cool rule as it gets more cars involved in the race and doesnt let it just become a bore fest like the F1 where its the same 2 - 4 cars winning every race - being a mile ahead of anyone else.
