See I consider Hockey as boring and useless as aDam and Tom think Baseball is.

At least hockey has a higher chance of violence.

Who knows, with the current trend of steroid use....

Baseball has more waiting around.

I'm just loving the selling points Hockey is trying to use to keep what few fans in the states they had after the stirke. "NO MORE TIES!" Well Whoopie-Fucking-Do. Still doesn't change the fact that it's on Leotard away from being figure skating.

It's a lot of padding, sticks, a puck, muscle and ability away from it to. That's like saying that baseball is just like cheerleading because they're both done on grass.

Agreed. If any sport is to be picked on, it's football. Many, many football players study ballet to develop balance.

Is a lot of Cheerleading done on grass? I don't know...I don't really keep up with it, but most of them time I've seen Cheerleaders it's in a gym not on grass. Except of course the cheerleader at Football games, but they arn't always on grass.

You could say that's like saying Baseball is just like another worthless as hell game...Lacrosse... just cause they are both played on grass.

I'll forever associate baseball with running around the yard in Brownsville at night catching lightning bugs while my grandfather sat and smoked his pipe on the patio and listened to the Astros games. A lovely deja vu flash for me whenever I hear baseball on an AM station, but I don't associate it with sports excitement.

Not that hockey shootouts are that exciting either. Some of the logistic rule changes to open up the ice were necessary because players have just gotten bigger, but breakaways and penalty shots that used to be real nail-biter moments aren't as much fun because we're seeing one-on-ones almost every game. :mellow:

It really is like that, and that's why I like it. I don't watch it (or actually go to the ballpark which is one of my favorite things in this miserable world.) cause I want excitement. I watch it cause it's a good way to relax and pass a lazy summer afternoon. Although I have to say I got pretty damn excited when Pujols hit that three run homer in game 4 of the National League Championship, but as a rule it's not really why I watch it.

Lacrosse?

Don't you mean Cricket? There is no game that is gayer.
