Pretty much any sport honestly. I chose football though. It is the absolute WORST! If you ever want to torture me - put me in front of a football game. It's boring as all hell, plus I don't understand anything they are saying. It's Greek to me.

I opted for table Tennis (Pong Pong). I tried watching it when the Olympics were on. My eyelids started to get in the way .

One of Britains worst cultural exports!!!

The funny thing for me is i find sports movies interesting yet actually watching a sport is just the height of boredom for me.

Unless of course there's a Scot playing i might take some interest.

True, but I was too quick to knock you while you were down!

Getting back on topic, I think some kind of sport should be part of everyone's life.. By just watching, or taking part, sport is fantastic! Id be lost without it..

If you ever get a chance to stand on the field during an NFL game, you might pick up a greater appreciation for what kind of athletes these guys are. On TV it's a fun game to watch, but seeing it close up on the field level really shows how fast these guys are moving, and how hard they're getting hit.

A quarterback taking a blindsided sack is by far worse than anything anyone in rugby would ever feel. I can only imagine what kind of talk goes on in a scrum, "Ouch, you squeezed my shoulder too hard", "Stop stepping on my toesies".
Sorry but the NFL is truly the "No Fun League" it's all about the superstar players, wanting camera time with their stupid antics then actual football play. Once I would have agree with you, the NFL was a very good league to watch, when the players actualy played and were not affraid of breaking a sweat and running in the mud. I expect the NFL will soon have to past a new rule force by the players refusing to play if it's too cold, raining or just too windy because it my destroy their mullet for their very important camera time.

I'm not sure we're watching the same NFL. You and the other guy who mentioned the NFL divas must be seeing people I'm not seeing.

Of course there might be a couple people, like T.O., who love the attention, but to say it's basically the entire league is unfair. I'm not sure of many players who feel they chipped a toenail, so they sit out a game, or it feels too chilly outside, so they take the week off.

A few years ago T.O. broke his leg, and 7 weeks later he was miraculously playing in the Super Bowl. Sure, maybe he wanted the attention of playing in the SB, but in the CFL (here comes my blanketing statement) I'm sure every player with a similar injury would've started making plans for the year off they planned on taking.

And you call the NFL the "No Fun League" which is a term people use to describe the crackdown on player celebrations... yet at the same time you seem to say players care more about goofing off/celebrating/building up their image than they do about playing the game. Seems to contradict itself.

I call it the No Fun League because it's not fun to watch it, I don't care that people use it because they are rules about players celebrations. The NFL in the last 15 years as gone downhill rather quickly, it's all about the "diva" players. It's not about the playing anymore or the hussel, it's all about the hype. I am quite please you actualy enjoy it, good for you, personaly I have not been able to complete a full games of the NFL in years and this include's the Super Bowl games.
