Most boring: Soccer vs. Watching Paint Dry

SteveBsjb · 03-28-2006, 02:26 PM

I know, I know, I know what you're thinking... what COLOR paint? Right? Pick your favorite.

(Testing to see how many of "them" are out there.)

Flint · 03-28-2006, 02:38 PM

Will they have a sense of humour?

ferret88 · 03-28-2006, 02:43 PM

Guess I must be one of "them." I used to play soccer. I don't mind watching soccer. I prefer it to ... oh ... say baseball. At least in a soccer match there's ALWAYS something going on (even IF there's not much scoring.) With basebleah, there's altogether too much standing around, nodding, scraatching, spitting, etc. for me.

(There. Now I've opened myself up for a verbal beating.)

SteveBsjb · 03-28-2006, 02:46 PM

Nope, Ferret you're not one of them. Thanks for your response. I like your reasoning.

I also like your "UN-blank" spot.

ferret88 · 03-28-2006, 02:48 PM

Steve, I'm surrounded by soccer-is-so-boring people that I expected more of the same. Glad to see I was wrong.

I prefer to watch hockey though if I have to watch sports.

SteveBsjb · 03-28-2006, 02:50 PM

Haha! (I'm secretly baiting Europeans and Aussies that think soccer is actually called football.) Even though I'm posting this here, and making it obvious, they'll probably still yell at me. They hate the S word!

ferret88 · 03-28-2006, 02:52 PM

Oh. Them that eat biscuits and ship stuffin lorries and ride on a lift.

I see.

Why trying to bait them? Nothing better to do?

Flint · 03-28-2006, 02:54 PM

why do anything?

SteveBsjb · 03-28-2006, 03:00 PM

Well, it's not like I said they're stupid, I'm just dangling the word "soccer" out there to see who wants to attack. If no one, then okay, no discussion on that issue. I do think any sport that can finish 0-0 is uh... oh well, I'll be nice today. Soccer is good exercise.

hehe, just playin.

Bad Steve, bad!

I know it's practically un-american, but I don't watch any sports outside of the Olympics - and even that's spotty. But if you want to talk real snoozers, I think watching golf has to take the prize.

Golf is great to watch when I need a nap.
