    What sport do you RESENT the most?
    I mean having to see coverage of it on TV or online or hear about it or whatever...

    For me, it's a slam dunk: AUTO RACING.

    Not even remotely a "sport". Beyond fukkin boring. Has nothing to do with the athletic ability to do a single fukking thing.

    I know I can change the channel, but it even annoys me for the two seconds I have to see it, and for the fact that something else should be being covered.

        Driver needs endurance, not just anyone can run a car for 3 hours in high temperatures, and control a loose car that isn't handling doing high speeds. Then you got the pit crews, that need to be athletes to run around carrying tires, jacks and fuel tanks in high temps with that silly ass fire suit on.

        It takes more then you think.

          Ping Pong is a bizarre choice indeed. I can't even remember the last time that I saw it mentioned on any channel.

          I can't say that resent I any sport but.... the WNBA bores the hell out of me. When I hear people on ESPN(or any other channel) talk about it with excitement I just find it amusing.

            Any racing coverage annoys the hell out of me too. It's a sport to sit on your ass and drive around in a car?

              Basketball is the lamest sport there is. Especially when it comes to entertainment against hours of TV time.

              What a joke that shit is. 1 star player makes or breaks a team, and no matter who is up, no matter by how much, the whole result can turn around in the last 10 minute long "60 seconds".

              They should just toss a coin, multiply it by the square root of their roster budget, and award the championship to them.

                  Agreed.

                  In addition to what you mentioned, there has to be a lot wrong with a sport where a lumbering lump like Yao Ming is considered as a great.

                          This is a good call, I was going to mention horse-racing as my second choice. What the fukk kind of sport is this, it's the fukking animal doing the racing, you're just sitting on it! Very similar to auto-racing.

                          Leave these fukking animals alone.

                            I somewhat agree about soccer since I can't understand why it's the hugest sport in the world. However, I can sort of get into it during the World Cup, and I totally get how you have to be a bad-ass athlete to excel at it... so it's nowhere close to the stupidity of fukking auto-racing.

                            And even though I enjoy basketball, I totally get how stupid the final 60 seconds of it is; it annoys the piss out of me too and I'm a fan!

                            No mentions of baseball yet, I'm surprised. Pretty boring fukking sport. And you shouldn't be able to be as fat as some guys are and be good at it.

                              Golf. Only good to play, not watch.

                              Mens tennis. Select womens matches are watchable.

                              Agree with soccer. World Cup only.

                                Yeah, agree, golf is exceedingly boring to watch. Just makes you want to be playing. But us poor people can't play golf. Wonderful thing to do on a gorgeous day though. Every five years when I can turn in enough bottles and cans.

                                Also agree about tennis, can't watch for more than five minutes. But can watch hot women/girls.

                                Still, I don't resent either of these. The idea was a sport where you're like "Why do they cover this at all, it's not a sport and it's retarded."

                                  I'll stick with Bowling then.

                                  Or darts.

                                  Hell, fishing too.

                                                    The only thing I really won't watch is the WNBA. Just has no appeal whatsoever. I'll watch bowling, golf, fishing but can't do the WNBA.

                                                        soccer.

                                                        5''10 guys who weigh 120 pounds are athletes?

                                                        Watching a soccer montage of guys acting like they've been shot when they get poked is funny. One series on an american football field and they'd all be carted off on stretchers.

                                                            soccer....I resent any sport where flopping and delay tactics are the norm and a part of everyday strategy. That's embarrassing.
