Tennis.
Think you have to play at least some to really appreciate the sport, but I honestly believe that the top tennis players are the most skilled athletes on the planet. Not best, mind you, but most skilled. And I think the sport, with its one on one nature, is like boxing, but with an intermediary. Federer vs Nadal at their best can be like Ali vs Frazier.
But I understand why it's totally a niche sport. 2 people hitting a ball back and forth can be boring.
Every sport can be boring. That's what I hate about his society today. Imo baseball is the probably the most difficult and beautiful sport there is. Also imo the best playoff experience, you just don't know who will win. For some reason 20-28ish year olds thinks it's boring. I think it's a word used for people unable to understand the games and have little patients. That's why the NFL was so popular.
Tennis players are super athletic and super skilled. I've attended several matches in college and really enjoyed it.
Now soccer? I will never buy in.
I love to watch tennis, and I can watch baseball when the Reds are good, which is very rare. But baseball definitely needs something to cut down on the monotony. Games that last 2:30 to 2:45 or so are not bad, but when they go well over 3 hrs, that's a bit much. And they play far too many games in baseball. 162 is ridiculous, IMO. Cut it down to about 100, if that.
Man I don't want anyone screwing around wth baseball. But it's my favorite sport. I understand where some think it's too long, or too slow, but that's the game. I don't want a hurry up rule for pitchers (would destroy a pitching advantage), hate the replay rule, and love it played the way it's meant to be played.
When I was growing up in the 90's baseball was huge. My family are huge cardinal fans but Griffey is my guy (besides Ozzie). I collect expensive and rare Griffey memorabilia, but stay away from the reds stuff. Griffey will forever be a Mariner, but I've ventured off.
Baseball is coming back strong. Our high school team had to have tryouts and cuts for the first time in history in 2015. Parents are growing fearful of football, and reverting back to baseball. I'm so glad. This countries obsession with the NFL over the last decade has become unbearable to me.
