I hate it when the blockers on a punt return team continue to block so long, they have no idea where the ball is and it often winds up hitting them in the ass. Their block isn't that important. I hate it when guys don't box out and give up easy layups. They can all go to hell. I hate it when baseball players don't hustle from 3rd to home with 2 outs while the hitter is still running the bases. I hate it when guys slow up before they reach the end zone without really knowing if anyone is behind them. Also, I don't care about this one, but how do ice skaters fall when they are doing their routines? That should be the only thing they practice, right? Shouldn't they just come to the rink every day and do like 300 triple camel toes in the offseason? That's what Larry Bird would do. And he would never fall. |

I hate it when basketball players give each other fistbumps and high fives after missing a free throw. |

Pregame shows I hate it when kickers sky point after missing kicks they should easily make. |

Why isn't there a computer chip in a football yet to determine actual position on the field? |

I hate every single thing about Duke basketball. And since there is such a thing as Duke basketball, I hate anything connected with Duke basketball. Things like Duke University, Duke lacrosse team(they may be innocent of rape but they're guilty of being dukies), Duke students(SOOO crazie!!!) and alums(piss ants), but most of all, Steve Wojciechowski. The floor slapper and the inventor of the homo huddle. |

In the NBA, you have the option of taking the ball out at halfcourt after a timeout no matter where you call the timeout. |

Was watching the Winter Olympics (added the winter for the slow ones on the board) with my daughter and 3/4ths of the skaters kept falling. She was surprised at how many fell and quickly got bored after all the hype, just for them to fall on their asses. The music choices didn't help either with the younger generation. If they want to attract a younger audience, they need to stop with the Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and add more Panic! At The Disco. |

In the NFL, the playclock runs even if the refs are standing over the ball not allowing it to be snapped. The lack of the parity in the NBA. The lack of a salary cap and floor in baseball. |

The ball crossing the goal line, if you want six you should have to get your body in the end zone with the ball. |

Basketball players who throw up meaningless 3s at the buzzer that screw the spread Baseball players that take forever to take their armor off after a walk. Football kickoffs. If 90% of them are going to be touch backs, just start the other team on the 25 and skip the meaningless kick. |

the length of time it takes for MLB instant replay reviews the fact that soccer uses a running clock with inaccurate amount of extra time added CYA NFL player safety rules |

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I hate it when announcers refer to players as an all America rather than an all American. Drives me crazy. And it happens at least 50% of the time if you actually pay attention to stuff like that. |

There are no more than one of these guys. I hate Herbie. Muss and Danielson will never be topped. I hate the new Cominsky Field. |

When announcers/hosts say: "Score the basketball" "He put his foot in the ground" "Draft capital" I would have thought that referring to players as "assets" (things (predominantly black players) to be bought and sold by (predominantly white) owners) would be...deeply troubling, but apparently not. |
