    cycling.
    the so called 'sprint' races that are 10 or so circiuts of the velodrome, the first 9 and a half laps are spent going as slow as f***ing possible.

    [cite]Posted By: McLovin[/cite]Baaseball = rounders stretched over a week. Utter gash.

    Actually it's only stretched to 4 hours and that's mostly to do with the television companies. However like horse racing, cricket and basketball - it is more about the experience of being there. They all suck as TV sports imo.

    I think Horse Racing is more about whether you have backed a horse or not.

    I'm a big Racing fan, but i'd find it hard to sit and watch an afternoon of small maidens on the All weather at Lingfield without a bet.

    "Faster, Higher, Stronger"?

    Boxing?

    A bit of an exception there as I think the rounds are based on punches landed and certainly knockdowns. Not who had the fanciest footwork :-)

    I agree with all of Ketman's choices and would also add Cricket to his list
  • Can't believe snooker is getting the caning it is. Utterly absorbing for me although I'd never pay to watch it live.

    F1 and cricket. How anyone could say Ice Hockey is boring obviously hasn't watched it, totally with Leroy on that one.

    Boxing can't escape this.

    Squash! Just can't be doing with it. Another player's sport rather than a spectator one. Favourite sport on the box: motorcycling, especially the GPs: skilful, daring, and risky. Especially as there are a couple of Brits coming up through the ranks who could be future World Champs.

    I only put Ice Hockey in my list as you can't see where the puk is anyway!! It is like watching football with a transparent ball!! I.e pointless. I have watched it loads for the fights, watched a bit when i was in Canada and went to see Calgary play someone, although i was absolutely wasted i couldn't even see where the puk was!! And found it more interesting watching all the dousche bag yanks/canadanks shouting stupid things at something they couldn't see!! Was a good day out tho.

    Swimming without a shadow of a doubt. Imagine watching the 400m done at 25% of the pace. ZZZZZZ

    Oi Henry! Pro wrestling isn't a sport so it has no place on this list!
