Re: am i the only who finds the nfl boring?

Your blase feeling could also be due to you being around sports so much at work, that you get tired of it and want to be around something else in your off hours.

BINGO

 

Re: am i the only who finds the nfl boring?

But I'm NOT around sports that much in my job, you know? I don't watch it when it's on in the office, I really don't read that many wire stories short of proofing, I NEVER read NFL copy...and when I'm out covering stuff, it's not stuff I'd watch on TV anyway.

Me neither.

 

Re: am i the only who finds the nfl boring?

A friend once said of her husband, who watches the football virtually every Sunday," I want to blow up the NFL."

Yes, I'm having a huge issue with the Man Child. He prefers to watch the CFL. Doesn't like the NFL much. Plus, he's a Leafs fan.

LOL, haha.

My dos centavos: I subscribe to the NFL Sunday ticket package and I know plenty of others who do as well. On the other hand, don't know too many who have the MLB EI package. I'm a baseball fan and always have been. But I'd never subscribe to the MLB package. Postseason baseball gets me excited, but not many regular season games do. Sorry.

i had to do it.

I have always felt that regular season baseball was best to be followed in a newspaper. It is such a day-to-day grind with the 162 game schedule, watching it every night would be almost impossible. But you always have time to pick up the paper.

You may watch an inning or two to see what a pitcher looks like throwing the ball or what a hitter's swing may look like, but baseball is like a soap opera in that every day a new twist unveils itself.

The baseball reached its zenith in popularity in the 50s and 60s, and I'm guessing most people followed Joe D., Jackie and Stan in the paper.
