Basketball. Pah!

The only semblance of excitement comes not when someone scores (because it's so frequent), but when someone misses the basket. The 'action' is literally end to end, ad nauseum.

Plus you have to be a physical freak to play the game properly.

Yawn.

I think the last few minutes of a close basketball game can get pretty exciting though, well more exciting than NFL anyway.

Which is why they might as well just play a 5 minute match and scrap the rest of it. At least netball has something going for it....
