That has nothing to do with anything, just thought I'd throw it out there.

That's the perfect example I was looking for... I know people who play poker now that didn't a few years ago, but I don't know one person who watches it.
Soccer is boring to me, but I'd at least qualify it as a sport. The thing I don't understand is why you play 100 minutes so you can have a goal-kicking contest at the end. One hundred percent of the games I've ever watched have ended in penalty kicks.
Golf, Horse Racing, and WSoP are the three that annoy me.... Golf really annoys me because it's boring as hell and not a sport, but it's also popular so it drives the coverage up to intolerable levels. Sorry, but Tiger Woods isn't an athlete. He hits a ball with a stick and then walks after it. Athletes play golf in the offseason so they can relax outside.
