Rubbish Sports thread

went to 20/20 match, it was stop/start rain. The whole thing was a shambles.
The crowd didn’t care even when the game was playing - too busy getting pissed.

You must have been in the party stand then.

There are plenty who think having a skinfull is a necessary part of going to football, Test cricket is a good day out with friends or family, just choose your stand to go in for what you want to get out of it.

Honestly not that big a fan of 20/20 either

Ice Hockey. Was excited to see some games when I went to Canada. Excitement turned to boredom after about 20 minutes.

Gave it numerous goes (Calgary Flames and Edmonton oilers). Tells you how good the sport is, when people only get excited about fighting within the sport, and not the sport itself.

Shite canned atmosphere also.

Golf

 

[discopop]

Netball
Nordic Skiing
Olympic swimming, far too many events and boring
Nascar, just a sport for the good old boys
And boxing apart any sport which is scored by faceless judges

Cricket.

ban please

Cricket yup. Ooh it's spitting, all inside. Hang on time for tea... ffs tarts. Mostly it's just standing around doing sod all. No wonder so many get pissed.

Baseball. American friends 'treated' us to go and see Denver. Never beensobored since I saw Gentle Gian/Camel/Van der Graaf Generator* in concert.

* pick any from three

Basketball

Basketball is brilliant. Miles more skilful than. football. Probably enjoy basketball more than non City football.

I can be doing with boxing. Don't see the appeal of a sport that tries to knock out your opponent.

 

[blueparrot]

Anything that need judging to award points.

All American sports are shite.

Slight change for the notice of our All-American PL owners:

All sports that involve leagues with no relegation or promotion are shite.

eg
NBA Basketball
NFL Football
MLB Baseball
NHL Ice Hockey
MLS Football
A-League Football
Proposed Champions League changes by the All-American owners of some PL clubs

Tennis.

For how simple the game is, it seems to go on for an unnecessary amount of time.
