Are there any sports you can't stand to watch on TV?

There are so many sports out there which I'm very sure that some of them might be very difficult for one to watch. It might be as a result of the sport's nature or risks involved in the sport.
I have serious difficulties watching boxing as a result of this.
 
Golf, unless I need to fall asleep.
 
Because I rarely watch cable, and by rarely I mean at a barber shop/haircut salon I have very limited choices. But I would prefer not to watch a racing sport and rather a physical person-to-object sport like golf (because they cut to the chase pretty good) basketball, or American football. Hockey is up there and soccer/other football is okay but they rarely ever score and it tires me out watching them run around. Not enough violence to be fun.

If they score goals too easily in football, it's going to be a big joke. Unless it's some sort of a charity match or something.
 
Endurance racing... the events are 6 hours long.

I'd have to really like it in order to dedicate that much of my day to it!
 
I don't like watching 24 hours endurance car racing because the race last for a whole day, and it can get boring watching a race for a very long amount of time.

Like I don't have anything else to do that very day eeh lol? I'd rather watch TV series.
 
Golf.

My dad watches it (or he has in the past). I'm sure golf is fun to play if you're into something like that but I can't stand to watch it on tv.
 
I think having a more enthusiastic sounding announcer, adding background sound effects and music, visual effects, and recording golf games from different camera angles may make it more fun to watch for some people.

I have only watched played in a movie once and it was even boring in it. There's a golf club here but I don't I'm going to joining it.

Depends on who is playing, the significance of the event, and how beautiful the course is. However, I understand your view.

For me it's baseball. It's such a slow sport. I am also frequently disappointed with hockey. It's just hard to film the game with the puck and players moving so quickly.
 
Soccer and the WNBA.
 
I have a hard time understanding F1 racing. I tried watching it, but immediately got bored... haha
