    I just can't seem to enjoy watching golf no matter what I do. Tennis is almost as bad, but not quite golf bad. I imagine it's one of those sports that is a lot better if you play it but... urgh. No, not for me, no sir.

    I also agree that Golf is a boring sport to watch, but I don't mind watching Tennis. Can't say I've ever played either.

    I really can't watch anything that isn't NFL or NHL on TV. Live is different. I'll watch most any sport live.

    Baseball, Cricket and Golf. Basically anything turn based or where the two teams arent doing the same thing at the same time or where half the players are standing around doing nothing.

    That only counts for watching, I enjoy playing billiards

    Figure skating, but that's borderline as a sport.

    Other than football, Formula 1 and boxing (and events during the Olympics), I struggle to enjoy any sport. Rugby, cricket, tennis, golf, darts, baseball, American Football etc. I've given them all a fair shake, but I just can't get into them.

    Any sport I don't know anything about or information on the players etc. Cricket for instance. I know a good bit about F1 but was completely turned off it when it's dominated by Red Bull and now McClaren. It's just a two horse race to the title. If they were all given an equal car at the start, it would be a spectacle.

    Soccer. It's too simple and there's not enough scoring. Also auto racing when there is not crashes which is most of the time.

    Golf, car racing of any kind (except for maybe the offroad stuff sometimes), Soccer, NBA basketball post-Michael Jordan era. Did I mention golf? Tennis for the most part, though I've watched some matches that were hella fun, mostly the big names playing against each other (Sampras vs. Agassi, Nedal vs. Federer).

    Cricket, tennis, The entire winter olympics, and soccer(save for world cup or Olympics. #'Murica)


    Soccer is a sport i think i could get into, but some of the rules kinda bug me, oh and the flopping. It seems like sometimes they stop the clock and sumtimes they dont for things? and then the time is added to the end of the game? Soccer lovers, u know what im talking about? Also the offsides rule i think is dumb. I would also shorten the field, its too easy to just pass the ball around for the last 5 mins if your up.
