Things that piss you off in sports

[Luke]

This should be fun and relieve some stress built up .I'll go first add as they come to you

Missed free throws
A turnover on a 3 on 1 fast break
The jump ball rule in college hoops( why cant we just jump the damn ball)
Field goal kickers
people that drop wide open passes
QB's that take a sack on 4th down at the end of the half or game( just throw the damn ball up)
missed dunks
missed tackles
the tuck rule
playing defense for 23 of 24 seconds of the shot clock and then giving a wide open shot as the buzzer goes off
holding penalties
penalties on td's that get called back
players that score 20+ but have no rebounds or assists
players that takes shots when they are double teamed while someone else is wide open
QB's the throw into double coverage when two other receivers are wide open
players that commit stupid personal fouls(football)
ESPN
Dick Vitale (shut up already)
people that refer to the NCAA tournament as :"the big dance" (I mean WTF)



Thats a good start

You got em all covered it looks like. LOL

I hate that even though my favorite baseball team won the world series, they won in a fuckin bs 3 inning game.

I hate inconsistant refs/umpires.

I hate that guy Roger Cosseck on Espn all the time.

I Hate that hockey is the only sport where fighting is part of the game. Sure in baseball you get some brawls, but rarely good fisticuffs, and the suspensions are too severe.

Come to think of it, in the 4 major sports MLB, NHL, NFL, NBA the only 2 where it really happens, are the 2 where the players carry weapons.... weird

I hate:

When Im watching a football game, usually a primetime game:

Touchdown is scored
commercial
Kickoff
commercial

It takes like 10 minutes after the TD to see another play from scrimmage.

Re: Things that piss you off in sports

When players make meaningless 3's as the buzz goes off to end the game and they were down 10+ and the last shot messes up the spread for you

Same thing in the NFL when a team is down 14+ and they feel the need to score a td with less than 30 seconds left like its going to matter

Re: Things that piss you off in sports

Players that make a play, good or not, when down large, and proceed to celebrate like it was a game winner


Olympic sports like Table Tennis, and kyaking


Ticket Prices


the fact that there is still no way to select different announcers for games

Re: Things that piss you off in sports

again ,guys that have played basketball for 15-30 years and still cant hit free throws


announcers that say a timeout has been taken when you know damn well no one called a timeout its only time for a commercial break

I watched a high school basketball game on the tv the other day ( local high school has there own tv channel) and those kids hit 70% of their free throws in this game.

I just cannot understand how anyone that is in the NBA or College and had played hoops 15+ years cant hit free throws over 70%.

I bet if they started deducting money from their contracts for ever free throw they missed the free throw %'s would shoot throw the roof
