I fucking hate Wimbledon

This Is Not Here · 06.27.2008, 03:35 PM

That is, the Tennis, not the place (before Demonrail gets on my case). I can't stand any sports whatsoever, however tennis has to be worst. I once got my tennis-obsessive friend to explain how it works in full and it was still the most soul-destroyingly boring thing I have ever beheld. Its like any sport, a bunch of arrogant cunts jumping about for our entertainment trying so hard to compensate for their empty life and probable baby dicks.

However, its the TV coverage of Wimbledon I've grown to resent from an early age. For the first 14 years of my life I lived in the bottom of a pretty remote valley, and had terrestrial television and grand total of 3 TV channels to choose from. And when two of them are dedicated to Wimbeldon and all you want to do as a kid is watch the Simpsons every Friday night and it's postponed or cancelled due to twats in white shorts, you grow bitter, very very bitter.

At least it's some small consolation it's raining on their precious grass.

i actually love tennis and think it's pretty enjoyable to watch. the only other sport i'd watch is basketball.

gualbert · 06.27.2008, 03:44 PM

Yeah , it sucks.
Roland-Garros is better , I mean less crappy.

I love tennis as well, though I rarely watch it. I prefer playing it - though, again, I haven't played for a year now

My two favorite sports to watch are ATP Tennis and NFL Football.

This Is Not Here, maybe you need a break from the TV anyway?

Do you ever wear any polo-style pullover shirts?
Mr. Lacoste, a French tennis legend, invented those.
What about shoes?
Tennis shoes, anyone?
Suppose you better burn your shirts and your shoes to show your disgust of all things tennis while you're at it.

Okay, okay, I should cut it out, I know.
It's just that so many threads are "hate" this and "worst" that.

This Is Not Here · 06.27.2008, 05:22 PM

screamingskull · 06.27.2008, 05:29 PM

man, i love tennis. LOVE LOVE LOVE tennis.

To the point that all i have done since 12:00 on monday is watch Wimbledon, and then the repeats. Sleep, eat, watch Tennis.

I have plans tomorrow night which are being put on hold until the Nadal gamer is over.

GO RAFA!!

o'connor · 06.27.2008, 05:31 PM

yeah that's one of those non-sport sports. like bowling and pool.

This Is Not Here · 06.27.2008, 05:31 PM

Oh, oh my...

screamingskull · 06.27.2008, 05:32 PM

i don't really understand it myself.

I hate most other sports. But i just adore watching Tennis.

Yeah, well I fucking live in Wimbledon, and lemme tell you. It's a total nightmare here at the moment. There's more Americans here right now than there are in bloody Iraq!

EDIT: No disrespect to Americans in general, but i have to say that your tennis fans are a flippin pain in the arse. Oh, and all the pub prices around Wimbledon Village have managed to increase overnight. Weird that.

Already knew that one. It's the sport of choice for the Hollywood strain of the yuppie.
