not that i dont agree, but boring games are allowed to exist. the issue is the racism, elitism, colonization of land, waste and abuse of water and resources
Like, put some life sized Tyranosaur statues out in the middle of the fairway. Want to get on the green? Drive it 100 yards though the nostril of a giant fiberglass clown, or go around and chip through the sand traps full of spiders.
Could be, but everyone’s opinion of what’s boring is different.
Have you ever had to watch an American Football match? Besides very little actual foot on ball action (it was more like rugby but with lots of padding, fair enough, but at least change the name so it’s not so misleading), they kept constantly stopping every 30 seconds or so to have a little meeting, and for their like… 3 or 4 referees to have a chat and move some flagpoles around.
It was SOOOOO boring! It went on for HOURS because they constantly would stop for little meetings, interrupting the flow of the action every time it started to maybe get slightly interesting.
The only saving grace was that the weather was nice, there was an easily accessible bar, and in the field behind the pitch there was a local radio controlled aircraft event, so while the players were milling about not playing - which again was so very boring and frequent - I could watch the cool remote controlled planes and stuff and have a pint.
Anyway, my point is, one person’s ultimate excitement is another person’s ultimate bore-fest.
LOL and? even ignoring the racism, elitism, complete waste of land and water, it’s also the most fucking boring “game” in history

100%. Honestly, some of my favorite games are boring ass games.
If golf went inclusive and solar punk tomorrow, I still wouldn’t play cuz I’m really bad at it. But I also would have no more complaints.
mini golf is where its at
We need Golf, but its Mini Golf.

That got dark. Why not just have to smuggle the ball to the hole hiding it in your ass through a Vietnam War era POW camp.

They’re all called “football” because the players are on foot. If they were mounted it would be polo.
But the object they carry and throw and such can hardly be called a “ball” at all. It’s more like a symmetrical egg.
Football should be called soccer, and football should be called gridiron.
