What's wrong with Toronto Sports Bars?

The minimal amount of action in Football and baseball does not concern me at all, it's the "anticipation/struggle to score" that I like, whether it's waiting for the "snap"( running play or pass play) or the "pitch" (batter waiting for "his" pitch).

Lacrosse is another sport I don't watch because of the abundance of scoring.

So the college bowl games scored score 80+ points weren't interesting? you'd rather it be a defensive match.

I don't watch college football either.

and yes, defense wins championships, to each his own I guess.

its toughest to make in into the NBA compared to the other leagues. with only 12 spots on a team and the height requirement, very very few make it. Also many NBA players could go pro football (NFL) if they chose, but not the other way around.

They won't even put the Raptor game on one channel. This one place has seven screens, I don't believe this. Everytime I want to watch the Raps at a bar I always have to fight to get it on, even when the Laafs aren't playing. Am I the only Rapter fan?

You're not the only Raptors fan. I always find it odd if I go to a place with lots of TVs and I know there's a Raptors game, that I have to ask for them to put it on. A lot of the time the TV's are just showing talking heads anyway, and no other sports games are on. But still you gotta ask. The only time I've been completely turned down is when the bar couldn't get the station it was on (seems like BS these days).

The Raps have been doing really well lately, even beating first place Indiana last week. And with a team full of bench players. It's astounding.

Compared to other team sports, basket ball is tooooooo high scoring for my liking, I'd rather watch a "struggle to score" sport.

Curling?
