Most Boring Sports to watch

[dj1470]

For me it is definitely oval car racing especially NASCAR.
To me it's like watching paint dry.
Soccer comes in a close second in my opinion.

And let's all remember before someone says it - poker IS NOT A SPORT!!!

Not all sports are about stats. Chess is a different skill than checkers and those sports fans who don't appreciate that are missing out on many sports.

Sorry, I have to choose North American football as #1.

I'm probably in the big minority here.

I don't know what the fascination is with that sport.

Second would be golf, followed by baseball third.

I was all set to vote for darts, but it isn't listed

 

[rafterman]

Men's curling.

 

[ckupets04]

In no particular order Poker, UFC, Wrestling. Yeah I know Poker and Wrestling are not sports but given the amount of coverage they get on sports channels you would think they were sports.

 

[squash500]

Soccer and car racing in a dead heat. I can't watch either sport for more than one minute without turning the channel .

 

[Vov76]

Baseball.

That's because it's not a sport!
Darts is something semi-dangerous to do when you are drunk.

 

[Brill]

Golf, but it's a good kind of boring - very relaxing with several drinks.

I went to a football game at Orchard Park, it was brutal. The constant accomodations for broadcasts was driving me to narcolepsy. Had it not been for the drunken tough guy wannabes I would have turned into sleeping ugly.

And is there anything more mind numbing than golf. Possibly if Michelle Wei plays The Masters I might consider watching. What a terrible waste of land, Augusta should be converted to public housing.

Any kind of racing bores me. NASCAR. F1. Cycling. Running (esp marathons). etc

I voted for golf but baseball is VERY close behind. Fucking brutal to watch.

Thats interesting because i went to a couple games in Buffalo a few years ago, one against Atlanta, one against Carolina, both times there were several fights in the crowd amongst (presumably drunk) fans. Seems like that was the only thing that kept you entertained at the game. For me that was the only thing that I did not enjoy about the game. I had a ton of fun at the games. Of course I am an Atlanta fan so obviously I was gonna have fun at the Atlanta game but I also had a lot of fun at the Carolina game too.

Just tried to watch a soccer game on TV.
Lasted 3 minutes before I was screaming bloody murder.
I change my vote. Soccer is fukin booooooooooooooooooooring

Absolutely!

[size=+2]North American Football (NFL. CFL) has got to be the equivalent of counting sand grains on a beach.

The great Monty Python routine that got away![/size]

I couldn't find "All of the above"!

Don't watch sports... Get off your ass and DO THEM!

A sport requires some level of physical skill and athleticism, and mental aptitude / toughness. Some sports have different mixes.

But you need all three to be a sport. Chess is not a sport.


Car racing, soccer and tennis for me as the most boring. Tennis probably being the worst.

NFL has absolutely no appeal to me.

actually, most sports I don't have the patience for anymore unless there is something on the line.

I am more interested in the results & hilites than I am the entire game.

NBA basketball...who watches a whole game? Even the last 2 minutes is exceptionally boring since it takes at least 15 minutes to play. Intentional foul, shoot FT, substitution, timeout, 5 seconds of action, miss, intentional foul, shoot FT, substitution, timeout, 5 seconds of action, foul, shoot FT, rebound, intentional foul, timeout, substitution, zzz...zzz...zzz...
