Most boring sport?

paulerland123 @paulerland123 (27) • United States 6 Dec 10

Is football the most boring of all sports? About 6 seconds of action followed by a few minutes of huddling up while the announcers (are THEY on steroids?) tell you what you've just seen and predict what you are about to see.

This is not hockey! But it was good to see!

sarahruthbeth22 @sarahruthbeth22 (43143) • United States 29 Nov 10

I'm talking about the Finnegan- Johnson bout! Now I hear they will be suspensions and fines! As a hockey fan , this looked normal to me. I must confess I love a goods hockey fight and they are used not only to clear the air and...

akd545 It was fun to watch I am glad that they just recieved a fine instead of a suspension. They can pay their fine of 25,000 apiece and keep on playing. Probably just got caught up in the intensity of the game. Let em at it!!!

akd545 I think you will see a better team now that Brad Childress is history. Probably will bench Favre soon becauase of his physical condition. How long do you go on WANTING things to happen? Look at the Cowboys after Wade Phillips was fired 2-0 since his departure!...

akd545 I think one of the reasons for football becoming increasingly dangerous is the technology involved as well as the techniques used in training. Todays athletes are bigger and faster which results in more violent hits. There does need to be a move to make...
