All contact ball sports other than Rugby Union.

They're all soft as wet corn flakes in comparison. Not to mention I can't stand people taking dives (happens in GayFL all the time now) and talking back to the ref/ump.

Rugby...a thugs sport played by gentleman.

SUP. Have we covered SUP yet?

A) There is one paddle, unlike a kayak or surf ski. One person unlike a canoe.
B) A SUP board is bloody unhydrodynamic, if that's a word. They are pigs in the water. Planing hulls used in a displacement fashion.
C) They are unstable.

In summary they are slow, inefficient and unstable.

I tried one once and was convinced after about 10 seconds they are not for me. I don't get it.

Any sport that involves rules and keeping score.

You're telling me I've done something wrong and you must penalise me for it? **** off!

You've had more fun than me because you've got a higher score? Stick that up your arse!

My idea of a good fun is doing what I want, the way I want and getting as much enjoyment out of it as I want. Even better is when I can say, "I'm having huge fun. You should join in and have as much fun as I'm having!"

Any sport that requires wind to push you along.
I just can't fathom praying for wind.
