Well, let me tell ya, some sports are just plain boring, like watchin’ paint dry. You sit there, and nothin’ happens. Makes ya wanna just go take a nap.
Folks say fishin’ is boring. I can see that. You just sittin’ there, holdin’ a stick, waitin’ for somethin’ to bite. Hours go by, and nothin’. Just you and the water. Then, bam! Maybe you catch somethin’, maybe ya don’t. Lots of waitin’, not much action. But some folks like it, I guess. To each their own.
- Fishing: Sit and wait, nothin’ happenin’.
- Golf: Hit the ball, walk, hit it again. Sleepy time.
- Baseball: Stand around, wait for the ball. Then maybe somethin’.
Then there’s that golf stuff. Them fellas in their fancy pants, whacking a little ball around a big field. Walk, walk, walk. Hit, hit, hit. It takes forever! I tried watchin’ it once. Fell asleep right in my chair. My grandson, he likes it though. Says it’s about the skill. I say it’s about takin’ a good long nap.
And baseball? Don’t even get me started. Stand around, wait for the fella to throw the ball. Then the other fella hits it, maybe. Then everyone runs around a little, then they stop. And wait again. It’s like waitin’ in line at the grocery store, only longer. Sometimes somethin’ excitin’ happens, but mostly it’s just standin’ around. It’s like they draggin’ their feet on purpose.
Some young folks, they like that e-sports stuff. Watchin’ other people play video games. I don’t get it. It’s just lights and noises on a screen. My grandkids are always playin’ them games, but me? I’d rather watch the birds outside.
Now, there’s this other game, curlin’. They slide them stones on the ice and sweep, sweep, sweep. It’s like cleanin’ the floor, only colder. And slower. I saw it on TV once. Couldn’t figure out what was goin’ on. Too much thinkin’, not enough doin’, if you ask me.
Heck, some folks say even soccer is borin’. Can you believe it? Millions of people watchin’ them fellas runnin’ around a field, kickin’ a ball. But I can see why some might think it’s boring. Not much scorin’, lots of runnin’ back and forth. But at least they’re runnin’! Not like that golf, where they just strollin’ around like they own the place.
People got different ideas about what’s borin’, I guess. What one person finds excitin’, another person finds dull. Me, I like a little action. Somethin’ that keeps ya awake. Not all this waitin’ and watchin’ and nothin’ happenin’. Give me a good horse race any day. Or even a chicken chase! At least somethin’s movin’ fast!
But hey, if you like watchin’ folks fish or play golf or stare at a screen, that’s your business. Just don’t expect me to stay awake watchin’ it with ya. I got better things to do, like, well, like watchin’ the grass grow. At least that’s got some real action in it.
So, there you have it. My two cents on the most boring sports. Not that my opinion matters much, but I figured I’d tell ya anyway. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll go take that nap I was talkin’ about earlier.
And another thing, some folks say there’s this ferret leggin’ game. Never seen it, but it sounds plumb crazy. Apparently, they put ferrets in their pants. Who in their right mind would do that? Sounds more dangerous than borin’, if you ask me. And kinda silly too. But hey, people do all kinds of strange things these days.
So yeah, there’s lots of sports out there, some excitin’, some not so much. You just gotta find what you like. And if you like watchin’ paint dry, well, more power to ya. Me? I’ll stick to somethin’ with a little more pep in its step. Or maybe just that nap. Naps are good.
