For me personally, I really don’t enjoy watching any slow paced sport which features lots of standing around with seeming long periods of inactivity (golf and cricket being two prime examples).

Random Hedgehog fact: Did you know that there are seventeen distinct species of these lovable little critters?

Ditto and only a couple of players are allowed to score. You could be amazing and throw the ball in from the length of the court and it doesn’t count. Go figure.

Baseball - that’s another sport that I simply cannot understand the appeal to sit and watch.

Another, rather sad Hedgehog fact this time now though:

It was estimated that there were upwards of thirty million hedgehogs in the UK in a 1950’s study.

This is in stark contrast to today’s estimates which put the Hedgehog population at around a mere one and a half million or less and still declining

There’s skill in most things I guess....but you have to wait ten minutes for every 0.2 seconds and half the time the don’t attempt to hit it zzzzzzzz

Anything that originated from America.

I quite like cricket, England are world champions (that was exciting) and Somerset nearly won the County Championship. The rules are quite simple :

11 men bat until they are all out, then the 11 men from the other team come in and bat until they're all out. Repeat so both teams bat twice, the team with the most runs wins. Quite simple really.

Also nice watching it with a glass of Pimms

Sorry to be pedantic, but 11 players (due deference to women's cricket) bat until 10 are out, then the other side do the same.

Should be the team with the most runs, but dare I mention the Duckworth-Lewis System!!!!!

Somerset were unlucky.....bloody Essex... of all counties!
