What Sport or Sports do You Think Are Boring?   email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life 5 years ago

To be honest I've never been a big sports fan to begin with though I do like to watch soccer. There are some sports though that I think are so incredibly boring and dull to watch. My two top winners are tennis and golf. I have to admit tennis is a hard game to play as I did used to play it myself, but like who the heck wants to get over-heated in the blazing sun, swatting a ball around...LOL...As for golf...well yeah, nice to be outdoors just puttering that little ball..but to watch...zzzzz.

So what sports do you think are boring to watch or just can't get enthused over?

WARNING: Let's be nice here....no bashing...what sport you may think as boring someone else might love..so be nice!!

Ok, I'm not a sports fan. The closest that I get to sports, is an occasional game of horse basketball, or badminton, softball, or volleyball with my kids and grandkids. ANd to be perfectly honest, as much as I like to play, I get worn out really fast. So, as far as watching it, no way. However, the ultimate sports torture for me, would have to be golf. That is as exciting to me, as watching a pot of beans cook.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

Ho-ho--loved that...yes golf is as exciting as watching a pot of beans cooking...LOL

For me, it would be golf, tennis, and baseball. I watch my little boy play baseball, and I got excited, but as far as watching the big guys, I fall asleep all the time. If I see tennis and golf, I turn the channels away.
I love watching soccer and basketball. Probably because my kids play these sports, so I enjoy watching it more.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I've never been a great baseball fan either...I just know someone will pounce on me for saying that since it's the "American" game to watch


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20750)   ranked 375 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I'm a huge fan of baseball, pyewacket, but I don't think you are alone at all. It's the American pastime they say, but I don't think it's even close to being as popular here as football.

Pye,
there is absolutely nothing wrong with not liking to watch baseball. It's fun if you are in the stadium, but if I'm not at the game I'd rather listen to it on the radio than watch it on television. Baseball on television is like hitting the snooze alarm...it means I'm going to sleep:)

I will have to agree with you. I have never watched soccer or golf.
I can't get into it enough to watch it. Tennis either. I like to
play miniature golf.:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

Wel--miniature golf is fun, especially those fun kind at amusement type parks.. :)

5. myLot reputation of 95/100. OreoCookie3 (22476)   5 years ago

Let me see... where do i start? Baseball, basketball, football, I don't like any of them. I watched the Braves when they went to the World Series, and that was the last time. I liked that. I just don't understand things ..like in football.. 1st down, 2nd down 2 yard penalty and all that stuff. it doesn't mean anything to me. I know in football one team is trying to take the ball from the opposing team to make a touchdown.. but all that garbage in between is just so boring... and what is it about that clock?! 3 minutes can last 2 hours!


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

Ahh--another sports enthusiast...hehe--can't stand football either...
The closest I got to liking anything to do with baseball though was with the movie, A League of their Own--about the women's baseball teams during WWII---

I hate 5 day cricket match. It is awfully boring to watch particularly when the pitch is practically dead.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I guess cricket can be boring too..never watched it...guess I'm not missing anything-right?

I used to think golf was boring until I started playing the golf game on my cell phone and began to understand the game a little better. Still, I don't want to watch it. I really don't like watching sports all that much, except maybe off and on.

I agree with tennis and soccer, I just can't get interested in those games no matter how much I try. I think playing the game is more fun than watching it.

And, I know a lot of people are going to be marking me negative on this one, but I don't really like car racing. It takes a long time and they go over and over again in a circle. I just can't get excited about that. Cross country racing and off-road racing is more interesting to me.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I agree...perhaps playing the game in some ways is better than just watching it.

For me the test cricket matches are the boring lot.After all the bore the height of the bore is announcing the match a draw.It was a boring game lazily played by the pioneers in England when they see a streak of sunlight once in a blue moon.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I'm glad I never watched cricket..LOL

Just about all sports are boring for me to watch - sometimes in person its different. Even the idea of Golf makes me yawn. That's said - I love watching martial arts tournaments -I've only been to one live but I enjoyed it.

For me, sports are walking and hiking and swimming!


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I love walking too...hehe...that's my idea of a sport since I can participate in it myself....LOL--did used to love swimming too!

Yes and the competition is against yourself!

I'm glad you put the warning. Some people take things to heart, even if it is sports. : ) The sports I cannot watch because it bores me to tears are golf, nascar, soccer, and lacrosse. Oh, and bowling. I'll go bowl, but I don't want to watch it.


myLot reputation of 98/100. pyewacket (12221)   ranked 239 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

I guess I've never been a fan of baseball because I came from a background of baseball nutcases--LOL. I mean the world stopped when the game was on TV and my folks would watch..as a kid I just couldn't see what all the fuss was about..now remember I was a kid..so it used to tick me off that here I am a kid, and I wanted to watch my favorite cartoon, but oh, no,...if a game was on that was it--so a little resentment on my part--heehee. I used to bowl but I'd never want to watch it either--hockey I never used to mind watching---


myLot reputation of 97/100. AmbiePam (20750)   ranked 375 out of 32,944 in life  5 years ago

My family hated baseball. The day I moved out when the first time I ever got to watch an entire game. LOL
