I thought I told you warriors- scientists have proven that rugby league is the worst game in the world.
 
Now you can argue with me, but are you man enough to argue with science?

I find it quite exciting watching the grass grow, when they televise it - it's just a shame that the golfers keep walking in front of the camera...

For some reason, watching, or listening to golf when you're hungover can be strangely soothing.. Though.. That could be because there's a lot of silence and quiet speaking commentators... Perhaps it has nothing to do with golf being soothing at all...

Then you hit the jackpot when various stages of the same golf tournament are on Sky Sports 1, 2 and 3 all at the same time. ....and the World log chopping championship is on ESPN

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Wouldn't having the telly off be even more soothing?

Probably, I don't know. I like a little bit of noise in the background while napping so...
Golf commentry is probably the ideal thing to put me to sleep.
A sporting lullaby some might say?

I find cup-stacking on ESPN strangely riveting.

It's just a matter of cost! Golf tournaments, and most of the various and sundry other sports, are cheaper to buy the rights to. 
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Although we do get a decent amount of Spanish football on ESPN. Crap coverage though.

I was enraged when I went to NZ and found that I could watch pre-pubescent Rain Men stack things during the day (FFS!), yet had to wait till midnight or so to watch any A-League action.
 
That's right, enraged!

Easy KP, I think you just don't get the sublime subtlety of cup-stacking...

Kappadi is a great game, pity it ain't on.  Would be cheap too.

What's cup-stacking EG? Have to agree, ESPN finds some oddball stuff. Seems to be a market for some of that, especially in the US. Each to their own.

ESPN, didn't they show Monster Truck Catching from Ustinki in Finland? Or was that just the 12th man taking the piss?
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

Baseball is the best sport in the world to watch with a hangover - FACT.
 
It goes on for 4 hours, and nothing happens.  How great is that?

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
