Rodeo - bull riding, saddlebronc, bareback, bulldogging, roping….a country sport for cowboys.
With combat sports…too much money involved. Fights are rigged, drug use rampant…just corrupt. Used to be good 15 to 20 years ago. Im not a fan of all the wrestling either…find the current day versions tedious as hell to watch. If you want proper combat sport, go to Thailand.

I'm a sports nut so it's very hard to narrow it down to 5, let alone rank them but I'll give it a go;

1. Olympic Running Events (from 100m to Marathon!)
2. World Cup Football
3. Tennis (especially the Grand Slams)
4. Test Cricket (find one day games and T20 deadly boring)
5. WSL (modern surfers have a such a wide repertoire of manoeuvres these days)

 

[NT_Tiger]

Judo (I'm involved in local club with the kids)
NRL (Never played except local scratch matches)
White water Kayaking (My sport of choice growing up)
Ultramarathon (My other go to growing up, until I became decrepit)
Cricket (I like playing it and used to enjoy watching test matches, but don't have TV so not really a consumer anymore)

1. Catan
2. Starcraft
3. Something even more dorky then the above 2.
4. NRL

Great idea!

Mine are:
1. Tennis. I love playing, watching, teaching my kids and grandy to play. I haven't played in years and years, though.
2. NRL, but pretty much only WT games and finals, SOO, and international games. Not so much this year, though.
3. Swimming
4. V8 Supercars
5. Diving. I love watching the diving on the Olympics and the Commonwealth Games.

Bit of a changing of the guard with Alcaraz beating Djokovic. Have you ever been to the Australian Open? It's so good and very affordable. A grounds pass gives you entry to all the outside courts.

I have to disagree with you man. MMA is more like how a real fight would take place. They could go one step further and get rid of rounds and continue fighting until there is a KO or submission. It's tedious if they just lay on the opponent but fighters like Volk have viscous ground n pound. It's way more entertaining then boxing imo.

I don’t know what you mean by this but no…in a real fight, weapons are used, there are no rules, no hand protection, and there is rarely someone ready to dive in and stop you from being really hurt.

Are you honestly not entertained by MMA? Fighters like Chandler, Gaethje, Poirier always bring it! Some fights can be boring but it's the exception not the norm.

Meh,…not particularly.
When it first started, it had an edge to it. Mean mofos taking each other on in attempts to prove who had the better techniques and training. There was high risk to it. It was close to no holds barred and there was no stoppages for pep talks and drinkies.
Now it’s just a commercialised package of the same types of guys fighting each other, with the same training and WWE style hype.
It’s suburban, shopping mall type entertainment. Very safe and protected.
Just my opinion.

No, it's on my bucket list, though. So is Wimbledon. I went the NSW Open a few times in the 70s and 80s at White City. Always on the outer courts, but always a great atmosphere.

I would love to experience Wimbledon. Try and make the next Australian Open it will be the last time you will see Nadal.
