Major League Baseball (MLB)

Fun to play and I enjoy watching the Little Leaguers but MLB is boring and entirely too long of a season to keep my intrest. I grew up a Pittsburgh Pirate fan, however without some form of Salary cap the Pirates do nothing more than find good prospects only to lose them when the Pirates cannot pony up the Dollar Bills like Boston or the Yankees.Without question is no longer the America's sport that now belongs to Football!

Baseball is great no matter where and how you watch it.   How did Baseball even make this list. Look at the listing information.  Baseball was #12 on that list, and this list is supposed to be the top ten hated!  What's going on here?

It's incredibly boring to watch (on TV or in person). Some of this is due to the overall low level of action involved, but most of it is because of the ridiculous amount of time they take getting on and off the field between innings.

By far the best sport in America. I watch every single Cubs game on TV. The good thing about baseball is... when your team is out of the hunt, you still watch the games and cheer them on like they are in a pennant race. I like Basketball, don't get me wrong... but when your team is dead to the water, you don't really have that much interest. Same thing for Football.

Boring, crooked, and gay............

On TV? No way... In the park, maybe, but even then it seems to be too long. I went to one game this year that lasted 4 and a half hours. If it was only 3 hours max, I'd be cool with it. Even the playoff games this year I just wanted them to end. I found myself watching them but rooting for either team just so it would be over. Baseball is 4 hours long with a total of 20 minutes of action. How boring is that.

I love baseball. But it is not the greatest spectator sport. Americans have the attention span of a ferret on a double espresso thus the game is a little too slow. Baseball is like wine, it is a acquired taste. Then again, so is Schlitz.

The purists among you likely will fault me for commenting on a sport for which I have no interest at all (actually, I have no real nterest in ANY spectator sport, or sports in general - one of the many flaws in my character), and know virtually nothing about. Anyway, the reason I dislike baseball as a spectator sport goes way back to the time I was a kid (in the late '40s - early '50s) and haircuts. Yeah, back in those days, before television and air conditioning, when I used to go to the barber's on a Saturday during baseball season, inevitably the radio was tuned to the ball game. I associate being forced to listen to baseball on the radio (talk about watching paint dry!) with hot, muggy, sticky days and little hairs sticking to my neck. Really uncomfortable - and boring as waiting for seeds to sprout. Baseball on radio - too many dead spots, inevitably filled with a litany of statistics, not only of what the particular player at bat had already achieved, but with all kinds of s... Read more

I would rather watch paint dry while I am getting my balls smashed in a vice grip. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! I would rather watch re-runs of the Golden Girls for 8 hours than sit through a five hour marathon of money hungry cry babies who don't hustle. Baseball is a great sport, when played the way it should be played. See minor leagues and high school.

Personally, I love baseball on TV, radio or in the ball park. A great spectator sport, and the only one where you start to sweat after the play is over.

Not the worst specator sport, and it certainly depends on whether you're watching it on TV or actually there at the park. The experiences, obviously, are entirely different. Baseball isn't my thing, but if I were to watch it, I'd rather watch it in real life than in slow-motion play-by-plays.
