In baseball you can lose 75 games and still make the playoffs.

The NBA is even worse and you can lose 50% of your games and still make the Eastern Conference playoffs.


Ive seen plenty of 9-7 and even 8-8 teams make the nfl playoffs so dont go there with the mlb and nba mediocrity. NFL allows some shitty teams in playoffs.

I wouldn't watch a motherfucking minute of ANY sport if wagering wasn't involved(or fantasy to an extent).

As it is, I am a gambler, so I watch a lot of sports.

NFL>NCAAF>MLB>NBA>>>>>>>>>Anything else.

Double Up I knew golf would take a hit here. But what most don't seem to ever mention it is the only sport where the field always changes,the weather conditions change, you need strength and finesse and your seasons is 10 months where you play 4 days in a row every week.If you play like a chump no one sits you on the bench and then still gives you a million dollar paycheck for years, and you pay your own freight.We won't even go into the thousands of different type shots the equipment or the length of the game about 5 hours in a competitive round or that the playbook consists of about 800 rules.

Soccer. Even curling beat soccer.


Nothing like watching a "nail-biting" soccer game that ends in a 1-1- tie.

Soccer is a globalist / feminist (it's OK to tie, children), socialist international plot.

Sorry, unintentional double post.

Let me add that baseball is best because of the lack of a clock.

Test match cricket = 5 days
one day cricket = roughly 6 hours
20/20 cricket = roughly 3 hours


20/20 cricket is the main form of cricket these days.

Any "sport" that can't be played in the rain. Baseball, golf, and auto racing comes to mind. I do realize the danger involved with it, but still I'm just saying.

Anybody who thinks golf is boring to watch must have never played before. Soccer hands down is the most boring IMO. Soccer will NEVER be big in the US. The Europians like it because they are a bunch of pansy asses who flop to get the refs attention. They call that real football lol. Give me American football any day over that garbage soccer that involves no contact. I know there are some Americans who love soccer but the majority of Americans who watch soccer are only watching it because the rest of the world is watching it and they don't want to feel like they are missing out on something.

Fuck football

I love football just because i grew up on it. My dad is insane about about football, but i have to agree it sucks compared to baseball. Baseball is the best sport to watch. Football has so many commercial breaks, and the people that go to the games are fucking crazy. I would never watch nascar... you couldn't pay me to watch that crap.

I swear to god they cant score. and they cry and bitch about everything! The best part is the coaches running up and down the court and fighting with the refs like they coach for UCONN or something,

I hope for the sake of embarresment you werent one of those guys
