mjp28 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 NO NFL, NCAA and NO MLB yet so what are you sports nuts watching? It's that major sports lull period for me. The "Cadiverliers" are in tailspin although LBJ won a game at the buzzer yesterday - I'm no hoops guy EXCEPT for MARCH MADNESS I'm all in there. Thank goodness for the Olympics that start tonight! Thought for a while it might be the NK vs SK missile throwing contest, lol. I've been watching "m" vs THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BUCKEYES lately on ESPN CLASSICS. Golf, sock-her, even hockey can be boring I'd rather watch kids playing in the street......if you can find any, they're all inside playing video games.....no wonder they'll never leave home. SO WHAT AM I MISSING ON TV? DON'T SAY THE NETWORK SIT-COMS OR REALITY TV, they stink! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes like I said I'm not really a hoops guy, never been but I watch who's winning the conference tournaments leading up to one of the most interesting tournaments in all of sports MARCH MADNESS a true one and done event. As far as regular season not that much interest. NBA near zero interest unless the Cavs are in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cavs and Indians are interesting when they are winning (only). Not a huge NBA and MLB fan. There is really no other sport that I get into.

The Cysko Kid Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Desperation? Literally everyone they traded off was contributing crap. They got younger and bigger and more athletic and dumped a ton of dead weight. That's good moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I may start paying some attention to Big Ten Basketball. Care little about the other leagues....except for the occasional big rivalry matchup. Two reasons: A. The one and done rule now takes away interest in any college team... They need to go to the football rule: you go to college...you must stay for 3 years. Or....the baseball rule: you can come out after HS....and play....but IF you do go to college...then you are not draft eligible for 3 years. B. I am sick, bored and tired of it being the same 5 schools always winning: Duke/NC/KY/Kansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Bone Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Easy..... Supercross. In fact, I'm headed down to San Diego this Saturday for round round 6 with five of my buddies. Saturday nights, live on FS1 and even Fox itself........ You think football players are tough? You haven't seen tough until you watch Supercross.

I used to love bikes especially hill climbing on my old Honda 350 scrambler, went through tons of mirrors, hand grips, brake and shifter levers and even bent my reinforced handlebars against my tank......I cut back after that one. The drag guys are also nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed them so much more before the Berlin Wall and the cold war ended. So much intrigue and mystery then. Also, it was actually the Olympics, all amateurs. The US amateurs couldn't compete with the soviets, so now the Olympics is largely a professional sporting event. Still, it is hell of a lot better than the NFL,, MLB and NBA.Far, far less thug, hood, ghetto, urban BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boo fagley Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Nascar I always start watching it to have something on and then lose interest a few weeks into the season. Im forced to hear about big 12 basketball. Baseball too which I could care less about. There is a lull and then NFL free agency and then the draft and then the NFL is rolling again. The Browns will be the most interesting team to watch this off season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona is coming up I never miss it i used to watch it all the time until they started adding crap tracks (Chicago texas) just to name a few and of course the rule changes like pit row speed and not being able to race back to the line when the yellow came out kinda ruined it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
