macnoke03 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 So I heard on ESPN that the Kentucky Derby is coming up. This got me thinking. Do any of you actually watch/care about horse racing? Personally I don't even consider it a sport. It's a bunch of little dudes riding a horse while beating it with a whip. I think this "sport" is ridiculous and boring, no matter how much ESPN tries to hype it as the Derby approaches. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 12th Commandment Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I don't know about sport. Although the horses and jockey's are certainly exceptional athletes. I do know that there's no better way to spend a sunday afternoon (outside of football season) than betting on the ponies, drinking cold ones and maybe winning a little.

rincewind Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Please, ESPN shows pool. If it is an athletic competition, it is a 'sport' on TV. Horse Racing falls under this umbrella. I don't watch much, but damn do I love the Triple Crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I hate horse racing on TV. It's like a one hour broadcast for a 40 second race. I can't stand sitting through all the BS for such a small payoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
