Yes, the doing is why I don't enjoy the watching.. that and I was bored out of my ever lovin mind in the 50's as a child being forced to watch slowdown baseball on a black and white tv in my grandparents house in town where there was nothing else to do. Which is probably why I understand the game, but hate watching it. I just want to see the final 10 laps of nascar, the final round of nhra, the last 5 laps of formula 1, etc. Maybe if all the players changed positions like we used to do when playing 'workup', then it would be a lot more interesting- maybe.

I prefer golf actually cause at least I get nice green landscape to look at. Now playing baseball, I enjoyed that. For me I really don't enjoy watching much any sport of any type. It's all boring... Even when we did the motorcross thing I only watched our races. I had no interest watching any others. I find sports to be something you do not something that you watch. If I'm not involved in it I really don't care about it. Robert Adams Rules: Please play nicely with others. Rules: Please play nicely with others.
