Name sports you cannot bear to watch
Thought it'd be interesting for a thread on people's most hated sports that they absolutely CANNOT watch under any circumstances.
I'm thinking more mainstream, not things like synchronised swimming or equestrian. For me, basketball is an absolute shocker, so is field hockey; just can't do it!! |

I find basketball difficult to watch, mainly because of the squeaky shoes, but other than that it's pretty enjoyable. I don't mind most sports, usually pretty good.

Horse related events.
Rugby when it is a penalty kick and drop kick-athon. FFS what is the point of having a backline out there? FTR I like rugby, more into the internationals then anything, but I'll still watch it and I know the players etc.

I'm not a horse racing fan, but can see the appeal & would watch it at a push. I do think that if you took the gambling aspect out of it it'd die on its arse tho. Goes double for the dogs, obv. Worst sport is probably walking tho; I mean FFS why in this day & age is it still an Olympic sport? Every ****er seems to cheat as well, so it's doubly pointless.

Basketball really, unless it's the Olympics and the Americans are losing. I struggle to watch any Rugby League as well. Other than that, I'll watch most other sport. Field hockey is also quite tedious because of the amount of fouls in it and the over-importance of the penalty corner.
