What’s the most boring sport to watch, in your opinion?

[Nikki1989]

[NathanDavis]

highly subjective of course... but, I just cannot stand watching baseball

it is just all so tedious, everything takes too long, and it is incredibly repetitive and dull... and there are SO many games, that is almost routine, to win or not to win...

now, I know it is not always like that, and I do know that it has many things that are interesting and even exciting for those who love baseball, but... I am just not one of them, so baseball it will just not do a single thing for me... lol

Baseball, golf, and pretty much any ball game like basketball and football as well. Don't get me wrong, I'll play sports like soccer or football, but watching it is something the players girlfriend's get stuck doing in my opinion. I like fights though.

[RavVid]

Yeah soccer and most codes of football are boring BUT NOT AUSSIE RULES. There is continuous action.
Try this sample. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_SqfNNfhmM

There is also a fights version.

[D_Bone_Steak]

@RavVid Now THIS... is a sport! Really makes the dudes with pads look like pussies.

[RavVid]

Yeah it is. I used to live right by the MCG. Fantastic. I'd put the window up and hear the 'Oooh' of the 100K crowd and know to pay extra attention to the live broadcast which was a second or two later. Got the crowd atmosphere plus the TV visuals. Perfect.

The fights are mostly push and shove because nobody wants to be suspended for x matches. Particularly if it is close to the grand final.

There is very little time when there isn't play. Mostly when there is a mark or free kick but then everybody hangs on what the player does with it.

Glad you enjoyed the intro!

Baseball. So boring. I was taken to Yankee stadium when we were in New York but my husband when his team was playing the Yankees. I swear we were sitting there for like 3 hours and i couldn't understand what was going on , at least a gaelic or soccer match last 70mins and 90 mins.

[Graci_e]

Cricket. It is the shittest, most boring sport and i can’t comprehend how these men sit around and watch it for days. Or why it even goes on for days. Or why it even exists. I dated a cricket player once and he was the cockiest bastard too.

[Graci_e]

Every time I look at the screen and it’s on, it honestly looks like they’re just standing around

[rupam_das]

Cricket is for the posh people. They likes to spend around at Lord's

[michael00007]

Do you mind dropping a follow or pm? @Graci_e

[RavVid]

Cricket is indeed best read about or the edited highlights watched rather than watched live. Indeed watching the grass growing can be more exciting than long sections of a Test match. The 5 days a Test match can go for is actually ab abbreviated version of the game as at one there was no limit as to how long a match could go for. Both sides got two full innings.

Still Australia became a nation on the cricket field. When we thrashed England in the First Test - THE ASHES - we were on the path to independence from Britain.

If you can call it a sport, car racing. Watching cars go around in a circle. Really? Waiting for them to crash is the only exciting part. I live in LA and I can do that by standing on the sidewalk. The only thing more boring is listening to the commentators talk about car racing. Saying crap like “I think the strategy today is to drive faster than everyone else and not crash.” Or watching someone change a tire. Oh look now they’re filling it with gas. Yes soooooo exciting.

Golf. I liked playing it when I was younger but I don't play it anymore, lol. I feel like taking a nap when I watch people play it.

[musicbrain5]

Soccer, football, whatever you want to call it. We call it soccer here and I don't understand the fascination. It's such a slow paced game.

[UniquelyBasic]

Agree 😅

[NathanDavis]

truth is nobody likes soccer... you have to love it since childhood pretty much, lol

[Bricealan]

Well, Nikki, I have watched Soccer, few times, and have noticed that they play for about 8 hours (it seemed like 8 hours) scored 2 goals, if even THAT, and then the losing team's fans ran down on the field, and decapitated, the officials, than ran up in the stands, and raped the opposing team's wives/girlfriends, and then burned down the stadium. Not boring, (well the 8 hours was boring) but I almost got buggered by a raging fan.

Well, the only thing more boring is Baseball

[Finchie40]

All of them , I use to love NHL and NFL until I realized it is just as fake as the WWE so I don’t even waste my time watching sports anymore I have no interest in watching rigged fake shit. Honestly I would watch WWE over those sports , at least WWE is honest about being fake lol

[abc3643]

Golf
It's practically designed to be boring to watch.

[Crafteroon]

Anything that lasts way too long than necessary. Cricket, the first 5 minutes of American football, Formula 1 on a track where you can't pass, marathon, long distance cross country skiing, etc.

[LiamJHayden]

Solo: Long distance running. I love to do it, but it must be boring AF to watch.

Team sport: baseball. Most games are 3 hour Snoozefests with a few minutes of excitement here and there.

[Graci_e]

As someone who has had to wait around my whole life while my mum races, long distance running is super boring 😂 but I’m definitely used to it now

[HaveNoName]

I was tempted to say Baseball but then I don't even consider it a sport. It is only an American passtime and an activity to create parents' bond with their playing kids at school.

Any sport that i find boring, I have never watched enough to realize that its boring🤣. But next in line would be American football, long distance running and synchronized swimming.

[HaveNoName]

All my younger life, I used to hate golf. First it was golf courses in black n white and then those grassless brown boring fields.

After coming to America, I started looking at the lush green beautiful golf courses from all around the world. I would ACTUALLY sit a watch it sonetimes just to enjoy the nature's beauty... Not so much for the sport though 😂... Unless there was a hot woman playing... 😬😋

[Revvl6pro]

In my opinion they're all equally boring to watch.

https://www.youtube.com/embed/k5c1Sm6bAdo

This is my sport.

[MountAverage]

American Football. No idea how people can watch that nonsense.

[Nikki1989]

Same.

[CateM]

Soccer, I'm not just saying this as an American. Nobody ever scores in that sport

[MysteriousDarkness]

@catem
So you think every soccer (futbol) match that there has been on every level has ended with a score of 0-0. If that was the case it wouldn't be the world's most popular sport which it is.

[CateM]

@MysteriousDarkness Come on, you know I exaggerated that

[MysteriousDarkness]

@catem
If I did know that then I wouldn't have said what I said.

[alcorriher]

baseball. all they do is stand there 😂 (my bros play so i have to lol)

[Cassie88]

Most sports are really boring to just watch. It's better to participate in them.

[HelloHell]

I don't think that any sport is boring. I am huge fan of Football, cricket. Sport fascinates me a lot. Even though there might be sports like fishing that I might not be fond of. i woukd rather not judge it as boring.

[studguy07]

Cricket is love.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

American football, nascar, baseball, basketball, anything involving balls really.

[collie22]

Yes Olympic cross country shooting is so boring... right

[smahala1991]

American Football, for such a contact sport they throw a lot of flags and timeouts

[Anonymous]

Baseball for me.

I see people saying curling, but women's curling can be exciting because they wear tight pants, they bend over, and they yell at each other a lot.

[Guardian45]

Anything where I can fall asleep, like golf, cricket and baseball!
