The Sports you cannot stand

[quoth_the_raven]

yes we have had the sports we all like and play, but now, what sport really annoys/bores you. what sports do you dislike?


i am a real hater of Tennis for some reason. it just doesnt do anything for me at all.

[Indiana Sev]

Well, if fishing is a sport (and with the amount of fishing shows on sports networks, you'd think it was), then it gets my vote.

"Wow, look I caught a bass!" :rolleyes:

Otherwise, it's cricket. I see highlights sometimes on TV and it looks like they're trying to play baseball but can't really figure it out:D .

i go fishing occasionally when i cant think of something productive to do.

and i used to play a lot of cricket.

i think we better take this one outside :D:D

[Bullet Tooth Tony]

I hate Cricket...worst sport ever...well apart from curling.

[jackson13]

I have a very large hatred for soccer. Of football, as you english schmoes call it. "Run around and kick a ball into a huge goal" OOH!!!

Dont be offended, I have just always, always hated soccer.

Does gymanstics count as a sport? I hate these little rabbits, the only good thing about it is when they fall off and hurt themselves. Same thing goes for figure skating.

Basketball - How can anyone consider this to be a sport? "Wow, you're tall, well done" Whoop-de-fucking-do. Have $8 million and a sponsorship deal with Nike. Bah.

Fishing is great, the guys on the fishing show have it all wrong, though. Catching fish is cool, but that's not really what it's all about, that's just a bonus. And if you catch a fish, don't throw it away for chrissakes, eat the damn thing.

Most "sports" involving horses tend to suck balls. Especially polo. The horses shouldn't take that shit. If I was a horse, and God willing one day I will be, I'd kick the shit out of any snobby twat who wanted to ride around on me and hit a stupid little ball through some sticks, or whatever the hell it is they do.

I'm sure I hate some other sports, but I can't think of them just now.

I'd like to say I hate cricket, but I don't :(

Being tall ain't the trick, man, shooting the ball in the hoop is! :)

As for me...curling's fun to play, but not to watch. Oh, and I never understood shit to cricket, but then again, who does? ;)

Oh that's just something coming out of a person arse. If I didn't know better I'd say you asked a person to name a sport you dislike, so you could prented that you actually dislike it, but you don't, in order to make your post longer. ;)

[Mick]

Yeah, you're on to me Jyrka. I do actually hate basketball, I was just struggling to find things to hate at the time because I was so happy from listening to my Atomic Kitten CD while eating pie.

Surely you jest? As an ex-gymnast I can assure you gymnastics is a very difficult sport. And getting hurt is no fun...in ANY sport.

[paul calf]

i detest cricket with a vengence,i don't know if its a scottish thing but it bores the pants of me,i would rather have needles poked into my scrotum than watch 2 minutes of this dire sport.

I was only kidding about people getting hurt, that's obviously not funny (unless they play for England), but I just can't see the point in gymnastics at all.

one of these days someone might hold you to that statement :)

where you going to be?

hospital probably, getting the needles out ;):D

[Grebdron]

Rodeo and bullfighting. Fuck!!! I hate when they hurt animals. I love seeing the bulls win.

[Morgana]

I have to agree with Indiana, fishing is just something that I can't watch. I know some people get a thrill out of fishing, but I could do it only if I was very, very drunk.

Also, I love to bowl, but watching it is rather boring for me.

And I'll give a thumbs-up to Greb's post...rodeo and bullfighting's thrill is lost on me.

seconded. i cant raise sympathy for them when they get trampled by the bull. if u will try and torture the poor animal to death, dont be surprised if it smacks u one.

NASCAR- oh wow turning left at high speed. It doesn't get much lamer than that in my book

The WNBA- need I say more

Boxing-it's become nothing more than the WWE

Soccer-I refuse to call it football

I am a racing fan, so I love NASCAR.

I really HATE wrestling. It's a bad movie, and that's all.

[Raw Chili]

Hey hey hey, stop with the wrestling bashing, it's the best thing in the world. Now onto the subject at hand Curling is boring to watch, along with Fishing, and Golf and Tennis are really boring and pointless to watch.

[PapaJupe2k]

[FeverDog420]

I can't stand any sport that uses a fuckin' clock to determine the length of a game. What's the point of playing the remainder of a hockey game whose score is 5-1 with four minutes remaining?

Admit it, y'alls: Baseball is the best game in the world. How many times has a team come back to win when trailing in the 9th with two outs?

[arto_j]

Wrestling and boxing...I don't get the appeal there.

I've tried watching some american football but can't quite figure out exactly what the fuck is going on, what is the point, and why I'm watching so it's usually a 90-second experience with that sport.

[Grebdron]

I would have said wrestling, but it's not a sport. Any wretling talk should be directed into the TV forum.

Wrestling is an absolute joke.

[Tom Samborski]

The one sport that I can't stand is baseball. IMO, it's just not an exciting sport.

[FeverDog420]

Not exciting?!? You can appreciate the languid pacing of Signs, but not baseball?

[The Claw]

Nascar, Wrestling, and Football are 3 I really hate, but then again I don't care for any sports anyway. I don't even know why I posted this!

[ICP RULZ]

I can't stand Soccar and I never will. It is just too boring and not enough fights or contact for my likings

Peace,
Matt

if you want that sort of thing, watch chinese and japaese soccer. i used to, and they really take it seriously. i remeber this one goal keeper got a really painful looking flying kick to the stomach. they tend to kick off a lot more.

[Kastman]

I can't think of a sport i really hate, because almost any sport is fun to play. But rugby would top my list, it's pointless shit. Lets get a big group of guys and make them run with a ball until they get hammered, then we'll do it again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again for the rest of the game. At least in cricket there is some skill required (dont come out with sarcasm like "Yeah hitting a ball takes real skill" because you try facing some of the fast bowlers, it's bloody hard)

or wrestling, not like wwe (although that isnt much better) but the olympics wrestling.

having played a bit of cricket, i do testify that going up against a fast bowler can be a very painful experience unless you get the ball going the other way. i caught a high speed ball in the...well....balls once and it hurt like fuck. and all because i was a fraction out swinging the bat. no i wont stand for any sarcasm either hehe.

and rugby may be what you say...but it is damn good fun all the same, to play and to watch.

hmmmm the wrestling issue interests me? surely olympic wrestling is far more credible that the wwe. atleast u know they are actually trying in the olympic wrestling. whereas the wwe is a faked soap opera in spandex smalls. hmmmmmmmmm....

[Corpse Candle]

I can see a lot of unjustified snipeing at cricket oh well...
I was watching the boat race on T.V on sunday just to be reminded that it is a sport totaly designed for the middle class /upper class teirs of society.I looks are never a correct manner in which to determain an indivduels character however some of the faces on quite a few of the rowers seemed as if the silver spoon had just been taken out of thier mouths....
:rolleyes:

It's just like Fox Hunting to play you have to have commited incest inside thier microcosmic clandestine group of thiers:mad:
If a sport is strictly run by breding and social status then it's not a sport rather a glamourised excuse for the grand familys of the country to meet and swap sons and daughters.

[MarkItZero]

I have absolutely no idea how to play Cricket. But I think it looks pretty cool, so I wont bash it.

Anyone who dislikes Football is a damn fool. (Im talkin Walter Payton and Brian Urlacher here, not Pele's version, though I think soccer is pretty cool as well)

The one sport I really dont enjoy is Baseball. Dont get me wrong, I go to the park all the time. But I mainly go to get drunk and have a good time, the game is secondary. I admire the skill involved in hitting a ball. All the more so, since I can't do it; but other than that, I think its pretty boring. Pitchers take too long to pitch, batters spend too much time outside the box, catchers head out to the mound way too much. It just isnt very exciting.

I think the immortal John Kruk said it best:
When asked about his practice of eating several hot dogs and a box of twinkees before games, Kruk replied..
"I'm a baseball player, not an athelete"

ooooooohh!!! nice one!!


The sport I hate the most is basketball... such a drab excuse for a shoe commercial. Any sport that whores itself enough to play loud rap music WHILE THE GAME IS GOING ON is a self-admitted joke. Same goes for a sport in which about 108% percent of the players have criminal records longer than Manute Bol's left leg.



Mark my word: Basketball sucks ass!!

I think what you're trying to say is that baseball in itself doesn't suck, nut rather that Major League Baseball, run as it is by that human excrement Bud Selig sucks... correct? if so, then it's my opinion as well.

its not a scottish thing, because i think cricket is the most fantastic sport...i went through most of my life hating it.....did not understand it....but something happens one day and ure hooked with the passion and technical complexities of it....it is a war.....maybe i lost my mind but it is the most fantastic sport

[deanus]

one sport i do hate is fishing!

i mean wots the f****** point of sittin on a chair with your fishing rod in the water and dont catch nethin for about 3 hours! i dont c the point 2 b honest! :confused:

Wen wot u cud b doing is actually spending your time wisely in a bar sumwhere drinkin wiv the lads!!

[mattjk_17]

Wrestling! I used to be a bit of a fan, but over time I just got extremely bored of it. Sure some of the women in it kept me entertained :D but it was just the same stuff week in week out. I tolerated it for nearly three years, then just lost interest. The only deasant thing about the WWE and all that now are the video games.

hmmmm well...

1) people go fishing to relax. believe me it works.

2) we are allowed to say fuck on this board. you dont have to censor it.:D

3) you can drink as you fish. even better, you can go for the drinks afterwards to save the risk of falling in while wankered and drowning.

4) seriously, i do mean it about the relaxing thing. its not about whether or not you catch something particularly. its nice to get away from life and have a bit of peace and quiet

5) there is no point 5

These are my picks too... THEY SUCK...I'd like to take a walk inside the mind of who invented them

[Benny]

I don't like Auto Racing personally. All they do is go around in circles for 4 hours, what's the fun in that! It's only interesting when they crash. NASCAR is especially bad, because all they do is turn left.

I also hate Ice Skating, especially when they are in pairs. It's always the biggest draw in Winter Olympics, but I could care less most of the time. I'll let my mom and sister watch that without me.

[Zombie]

CHEERLEADING

ITS NOT A SPORT. ITS FOR FAGGOTS . THEY SCREAM AND JUMP. wow!!!!!!!!! idiots

[Doc Holliday]

Figure Skiting. They dress up in ridiculous outfits, they spin, they jump....they all do the same shit. What's the point. Now Tonya Harding had the right Idea. Beat the shit out of someone why they are figure skating. I'd watch that for sure!

Nascar. I've been to a race, and try to watch it on tv. It just sucks. Around around we go in the same fucking circle. The road races are much better!

Hunting. Is that a sport? If the deer had a gun...that would make it much more fun to watch.

Will have to completely and utterly disagree with you here (except on cricket - that is cool :) ). I know people in the blues squad and if you saw the pain they go through and the dedication they put in maybe you'ld respect them a little more. The selection procedure is bloody hard and completely fair; squad is hardly picked on your family name - if you're good they train you. Considering most of the squad gets national trials at the very least, it certainly is a sport. I'm guessing the greatest Olympian ever may agree with me too.

Sorry to go on but it's really irritating that people have to slam Oxbridge and assume we're all rich, inbred rahs just because we're clever. :mad:
I can't speak for the tabs, but we're a welcoming good bunch down here (and none of us are engaged to our cousins either) :)

Golf narks me. Respect to the players, but it doesn't do it for me.

You think football's boring, but 20+ guys running around for 90+ minutes and lucky to score one goal is exciting?

I sure do. Scoring the goal is much more exciting than simply running through a bunch fat guys to the line. It's the most popular sport in the world for a reason!:o :o :o

[Ripper1888]

I cannot stand baseball it is just to damn boaring I mean maybe if they sped it up it wouldn't be so bad but pitchers take too damn long between pitches and batters always stepping out of the batters box between pitches so that they can touchthemselfs it is boaring as all hell.

Racing I mean how can someone get excided about cars driving in circles for three to four hours ooh that is really exciting.

Figure Skating/Ice Dancing enough said

[TATU]

golf, tennis everything else, I cme to this forum by accident.

[horrorfreak13]

Cricket
I don't know how the scoring system works.
