Lacrosse, it is just a bunch of chumps who couldn't handle football. Followed by fishing, followed by Nascar. I really hate people that say soccer is for people that can't play football by the way, if any "athlete" can't play football it is lacrosse players.

NASCAR indeed isn't a sport. It's a sanctioning body. Auto racing I believe is the sport they sanction.

I watched a couple of really good lacrosse games on ESPNU over the weekend. The Maryland v.Georgetown game was very exciting especially the fourth quarter. The Siena v. Hopkins game had some terrific moments.

I'll break them into groups.
I'll never watch:
fishing
bowling
tennis
lacrosse

If it's a special event (master's, world cup, etc.) I'll watch at least some
golf
soccer

Watch at least a little every time it's on:
NASCAR

lacrosse=hockey, basketball, soccer

way more scoring and way more hitting in lacrosse than soccer

:D
Lacrosse is a very exciting sport.. lots of action..lots of hitting.. Unless of course you are a Goalie of a Lacrosse team, then it would be pretty boring. The Goalies could probably sit on the sidelines and just run in when the ball gets to their half of the field.

So you are including Lacrosse? Its lots of action except the Goalies. I think the goalies stand in front of the net and play Football on their PSPs while the ball is on opposite side of field.

for me the most boring sport to watch on TV is baseball. But of the included options it's Nascar by a wide margin

I think not having Tiger playing right now... helps golf on TV. Many people get tired of watching him walk down the fairway... instead of just showing golf shots. Personally I love golf... I just like watching shots, not a bunch of putts and watching the leaders walk around. If you do not "get" golf.... sorry, but I think it is a great sport that takes much more time and effort to become proficient than most people are willing to invest.

Just like music... If any sport does not appeal to someone... most will find it difficult to enjoy watching.
