“Baseball is a slow, sluggish game, with frequent and trivial interruptions, offering the spectator many opportunities to reflect at leisure upon the situation on the field: This is what a fan loves most about the game”

- Edward Abbey

For what it's worth (vanishingly little), I say that basketball is the most boring sport: everyone runs to one end of the court and somebody shoots and does or doesn't score, then everyone runs to the other end of the court and the same thing happens. This repeats until the last minute or so on the clock, which takes an unbounded amount of time to play because of fouls and free throws.



True for the NBA and most of the college season. But March Madness is always entertaining. IMO, of course.


This is why I stopped watching NBA. It's largely become a 3 point contest with an occasional dunk from a fast break or defensive lapse.

At least the college kids sometimes miss their shots. :)
