Stacking Zeds Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Are there any sports that you generally will not watch? By that I mean you would rather turn off the TV and do something else? .....or go to a different part of the bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galong Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Soccer and golf. They could make soccer much more interesting by putting a dozen balls on the field. Golf could be improved if they allowed tackling. By-the-way, golf is not a sport, it's a game... somewhat like checker or chess. You don't have to be fit to play golf.

easy_jim Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Basketball - it is just mind numbing. The game has no variation - they just take turns to have an attack and usually score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayenram Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I will turn over if darts is on , enjoy playing it though....... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'll always remember the commentary of Sid Waddell at the climax of an epic multi set 'match' between Leighton Reese (8 pints) and Jocky Wilson (10 pints): "what athletes these men are!"

Old Croc Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 (edited) Soccer. I have tried, but I cannot bring myself to get interested in a sport where nobody scores most of the time!
