Belem Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Without a doubt baseball. My three favorite days of the year are Christmas, my birthday, and the day baseball season ends. It's about as exciting as watching paint dry. The players don't know how to bunt, and the pitchers take what seems like five minute breaks between pitches. Forget about watching it on TV. The only way I can tolerate watching it is if I'm at the ballpark drinking a lot of beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadaBing Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 other... without a doubt , soccer , football , whatever it's called , but on another note , was in a bar in Costa Rica sunday and I guess the final game was showing , heard a bunch of guys screaming towards the game on the tv , I gave a glance over and some guy was running down the field and scored himself into the net .... It looked like a 1-0 final... maybe one of those 0-0 thrillers could have topped that... :: Bada :: Bing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naughtyboy Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 There are very many football and baseball games on TV, and many can be a cure for insomnia. On the other side of the coin there are many enthralling and riveting contests in both sports that make you uplifted to have witnessed them. In general these sports are like people, some good, some bad, some indifferent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dali Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 I don't see how anyone can really consider this a sport, but apparently ESPN does: poker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALHOLK Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Baseball, it looks similar to a game kids play in Sweden but they at least take of their pajamas before they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonepony Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 My vote would be for Soccer, I would bet if you took a stop watch to a soccer game there would only be at most 5 minutes during the game when there is a scoring oppertunity. Way to many low scoring games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaad Posted July 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 I understand that neutral viewers want to see goals, but soccer is much more than just that, unlike basketball IMHO You must be a fan and know the game in order to enjoy the battles on midfield, the tactical chess game, sharp tackles, 'personal' duels, emotions, game preparations etc. That's the reason I only watch soccer with true fans of the sport ....my girl is aware of that!
