Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

[Gb160]

So I haven't got much on today, so I'm finally going to sit down and watch a 'Rules of baseball' video, followed by a 3 hour game on You Tube.

Reckon I'll get 25 minutes in before I fall asleep; it is a hot day afterall

Seriously don't mate...I honestly wish I hadn't bothered.

I’m not a fan, but surely Cricket is “Boring Baseball x5”. How can a game run for 4 days with 1 team 700 nil up and then a cloud appears and the wardrobe guy that carries the jumpers decides it’s a draw.

They are both trash.

Let’s be reasonable. Baseball is pretty trash. Ice hockey is pretty trash. American football is pretty trash. Basketball is pretty trash.

 

[VegasII]

A little harsh. Ice hockey is great live. NFL is decent, great history (though depends on teams and allegiances). Basketball was great for a while but seems very plastic these days.

Baseball is shite...though strangely baseball films are quite cool.

As for West Ham?

Ice hockey is great to watch live.
Basketball is great fun to play, not so much to watch.

The other two are snoozefests.

Baseball's shit. I went to a game at Fenway Park once. Without the beer I would've died of boredom...

Yup, I tried to eat my ear for entertainment when my relatives in the States took me to a game. Glorified rounders, without any of the fun.

Rugby and cricket. Two awful sports largely supported by deluded toffs.

I fucking hate football... bunch of twats!

My grandad used to say that rugby is a thug's game watched by gentlemen, and football is a gentleman's game watched by thugs.

To be fair, most football fans are braindead morons.

Well that’s true. Myself included.

Although I’d take football, rugby, and cricket fans over the embarrassing hoard of guffawing passive-aggressive arse hats that stink up the stands of Wimbledon.

Test cricket is dull admittedly, but the shorter form is bloody good...especially the 20 over stuff.

Baseball in particular is largely skill-less, I honestly can't see the appeal...the best bit last night was the race between the fan and that bloke in lycra during one of the many, many breaks.
They need to make the balls or the bats bigger, far too much swing and miss.

A game where you're enjoyment is increased by there being less of it, says all you need to know about cricket really.

Its nothing to do with there being less of it, its to do with the tactics when you have a limited number of overs.

You think football would be better if each match lasted 5 days ?

 

[Col_M]

Anyway. We’ve stopped laughing at Wham. Are we taking them as a serious contender this year?

No

To be relegated? If Arnautovic leaves, sure!

Sometimes I think that's what it would take for us to score a goal, so in some cases yes, yes I do.
