Most boring sport to cover

Wondering what you guys consider the most boring sport to cover – not neccesarily play or even watch if you have a rooting interest, but what is the worst sport to cover?

For me it's curling. I actually really like the game, but having to sit through an entire day of curling is enough to take down even the biggest insomniacs among us.

I haven't covered it yet but I can't imagine gymnastics is enthusing.

Damn winters sports beat....

 

THe one thing about gymnastics, and I haven't covered a meet yet either, is that ot's not the same thing over and over again, if you get tired of one apparatus you can move on to the next.

 

Who on here covered the Duck-Duck-Goose tourney? That would be the leader in the clubhouse.

I almost said track, but then there are those moments, such as at state meets, when thousands of people rise up in a swell as the running events conclude that make the whole day worth it. I get goosebumps every time.

 

Cross country, track and (high school) baseball (because it's so damned long and drawn-out. I much prefer the speed of softball).

 

Actually, field hockey isn't THAT bad. It's better than soccer, because there's more scoring. And there is action up and down the field.

I'll have to say swimming or sychronized swimming (yes, they do have that in high school).

 

Soccer because it always goes on longer than it is supposed to because of the injury time. It's too long already but c'mon!

 

1. Swimming
2. Cross country (unless you can see the whole course, but how often does that happen?)
3. Tennis
4. Prep golf
5. Wrestling

 

There's more action in grass growing than field hockey. Run three feet, whistle, stoppage in play, someone trying to do something that would add offense to the game, penalty. Repeat.

I once got lost going to a field hockey game and missed the first half. I MISSED NOTHING!!! It was scoreless. I could have missed the second half too.

I will say that the only decent thing about field hockey is the brevity. Thirty minute halves plus a couple quick OTs and the inevitable penalty strokes and you're still out of hell in less than two hours. Beats soccer in that regard. But at least in soccer you might see some spoiled punks pretending to play tough, which is good for entertainment purposes.
