In second place all horse racing although it's not a sport - it's a business!!
In first place is golf - nothing wrong with playing it I guess, but as a spectator sport and particularly on TV what's the point - Yawnsville.

tiggers.

The annual Worm Charming contest at Blackawton. 
I will say that a 5 pound sea trout leaping around on the end of a line in the middle of the night is far from boring though.

I play and watch golf, watching is mainly done from the Moet & Chandon hospitality tent though! hic!
I do fish also when I am sober enough not to fall in and it's the relaxation with the possible chance of the bit of excitement that keeps me going back.
American Football and Baseball 'aint to clever either.

My old flat mate used to stay up at night to watch TV coverage of International Angling. Yes, I kid you not - a program following the exciting sport of fishing. 
Zzzzzzzzz.
As for snooker - I actually enjoy watching it. So much so that I've got tickets for all sessions of the final of this year's World Championship....

On Clarkson's tour of Europe Did'nt Belgium have a sport where you counted how many times captive finches tweeted, and a sweepstake where a field was divided into a grid and bets taken as to which coordinate a cow poo'd in.
Acutally sounds like fun, esp if you can have a beer or two while you waited..

All sport other than Football, Boxing and Martial Arts!
I saw that Clarkson thing with the cow poo as well. Very funny!

Football, cricket, golf, hockey, anything that requires an icerink, come to think of it, everything except:
snooker
skiing/boarding
ramp skateboarding
darts
rugby
table tennis
In particular, the most tiresome viewing comes from butch females trying to play male sports to make a point. Give it up ladies, you're no use!
e.g. rugby, snooker/pool, motorsport
