I would watch that if it was on more
 

This happens every time I watch the Olympics. There are sports that I really enjoy watching and I always say to myself, "I'd watch that if they would have it on tv more often." Which sports do that for you? Which ones would you watch if they were on tv at other times?

For me:

1. Water Polo. I've always enjoyed watching that game. This year's US team doing well has been nice.

2. Volleyball. Sometimes you see college games, but that's not at this level.

3. Some of the field events: pole vault, high jump, etc. Those always interest me a bit, probably because they're not seen that often. I still think I would watch them more if it was on more.

I would watch more running events.

Many of these sports could replace annoying things on TV like Poker, Arena Football, Extreme Sports, etc...

Team Handball. It's an interesting combination of indoor soccer and basketball. Plenty of scoring and physical play. I don't understand why it hasn't caught on more in the US.

I don't like volleyball as much since the substitution rules and scoring system were changed, but I'd definitely watch it over most of the other filler that's on sports TV networks now.

When I was in Europe, it was on TV... I changed it.

Rocky in French is way more interesting IMO.

Taekwondo, Judo and track and field events where they "throw things."

I've never been all that interested in Track, I mean people running is pretty boring but the High jumps, pole vaults, etc... are pretty cool.

Good soccer. Part of the reason soccer hasn't caught on in the US is because we don't have the quality of play that really stands out as it does in the big 3 sports.

A lot of cable/dish packages have tons of European soccer on it. The Fox Soccer Channel shows a lot of EPL games along with UAEFA and FA Cup as well. For those who like high quality soccer, there's lots on TV these days, just not on major networks.

Re: I would watch that if it was on more
 

Yep, I watched a game this AM.. plus I'll say that the available Premier League games on Fox Soccer Channel is the best soccer to view in the world and has also been playing a couple of replay games a week on the regular Fox Sports in everyones town for about 10 years now so it's there... you just have to look for it.

a cool ESPN would show these things...

This canoeing and kayaking they're showing right now. Now I can't wait to get home and get my canoe out. I need the next load to Cincinnati now.

gol tv covers the Spanish top level pretty well too. They hit south american futbol in the European futbol interregnum.

Re: I would watch that if it was on more
 

I wish they showed more wrestling. I never see it on.

Re: I would watch that if it was on more
 

Word is that ESPN is going to buying the US rights to the EPL when the contract comes up next year...

Every Monday night on USA from 9 to 11, duh.
