Here's my top 5 list of Sports I feel have NO redemming value and should b done away w/:
1. Boxing-stop the violence-2 many belts-Tyson ruined the sport!
2. Auto Racing-while I collect "Hotwhells" and love Formula 1 racing-I think it is just a waste of precious fossil fuels
3. WWF-not a real sport-idiot fans should b doing something esle w/their time--like getting an education, i.e.
4. Field Hockey-y does it exist?
5. Curling-yes I'm mainly Scottish and we invented it-but come on what's the use?
What do u think??? please discuss here...any other sport u feel make no sense?BoxingAuto RacingWorld Westling FederationField HockeyCurlingShow results How far do you fall Pilot?<i></i>

Can I vote twice?

I voted for auto racing, but also would vote for boxing if I could. I see no sense in either sport.

As for wrestling, as carried out by the WWF, it's not really a sport, but a performance, or a play, if you will.

I object to your inclusion of field hockey, however. That was one of my favorite sports to play when I was in middle and high school. I just loved it.

<b> I would be in favor of removing all racing (except people). As much as I love westerns, when I see the movie is about a horse, you can be sure that the horse is going to be in a race in which every conceivable dirty trick will be done, and the horse will win anyway. Same with auto racing. I voted for eliminating wrestling, but it's not even worth a comment. A lot of high-brow sports should go the way of wrestling.</b> Arise now, Riders of Théoden!Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded!Forth Eorlingas!<i></i>

The worst thing 2 b watching @ 4:30 in the morning imho would b bowling, next golf--I mean modern golf has got very cool but it would just put me 2 sleep, at that time (even the British Open)-3rd would b tennis, unless it's a live feed from an major international tournament...like Wimbelton or the French and (yes Sky!) the OZtralian Open.

<b> ARRRRRGGGHHHHHH! Bowling and Golf! I think the players should use the opposite balls; then it'd be interesting (knocking down pins with a golf ball and hitting bowling balls with golf clubs). Those sports define boredom (to me). </b> Arise now, Riders of Théoden!Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded!Forth Eorlingas!<i></i>
