We all know of the most popular sports football, baseball and basketball, but what are some sports you like that don't get much love?

Good thread. Soccer is the most tedious sport to watch for me. I don't have much soccer. I just can't sit and watch the entire match. I might watch the world cup though.

college baseball and college softball I really enjoy watching in person or on TV.


The College World Series of baseball in Omaha and the softball championship Oklahoma City are always exciting and on my TV "must watch " list every year.

If you are talking AMERICAN FOOTBALL, then yes, it is not popular outside the US. GRIDIRON FOOTBALL, or for a better word, Soccer, is very popular outside the USA, but some Americans, like me, don't enjoy watching it though.

I believe there is a untapped potential for a professional Buzkashi (aka; headless goat polo) League in America today.

You philistine! It's played with a headless calf, not a headless goat! You're ruining the timeless sport of buzkashi!

On a side note, we could have a buzkashi GOAT (not 'goat'... GOAT!) discussion, but people put so much emphasis on championships, and I just think there's more to the story than how many Buzkashi Bowls someone won...

TENNIS! Men's tennis to be more specific, not those three setter grand slams.

I really enjoy watching this when the Olympics are on! Interest kind of surges around that time then it dies off again.
