Golf is a close second in the brutality department.

And watching it with your father doesn't help.

"This Merion course is the toughest I ever played. I was 16 and playing incredible. I went to Marion for the State Jr Championship and shot an 87! AN 87! And the course wasn't even close to being as tough as they have it for this. The tees weren't back as far. The rough wasn't as bad. I love it. I love watching these guys suffer! If this course was a Speed Figure, it would be a huge slow variant day. This course is set up where the Breeders Cup Sprint would go 1:11 and change."

Even after that brutality, watching this NBA game is not at all enjoyable.

I like watching the golf tourney for all of the "Babbooey" shouts. Otherwise it is miserable TV. The NBA is awful.

Got to admit, this basketball game tonight has been pretty entertaining. At least the second half of it, anyway.

Yeah that was OK. Just the best game of any sport so far in 2013. Only thing even close is that Ravens/Broncos playoff game. I'm not a huge NBA guy but just get all the way TFOH if you can't appreciate what we saw Tuesday night.

It was right up there with the Louisville VS Baylor epic in the elite 8 of the NCAA womans tourney ... it was Brittany Greiner's final game and the Louisville girls couldn't miss a shot. Baylor made a huge comeback in the final 8 minutes to take the lead, right before blowing it.

I've only watched parts of a few basetball games this year, but I've picked the right ones to suffer through.

It sounded like a good game...at least the ending, but have you been watching any of the NHL the last month? Multiple games with just as important implications every week. And I'm not going on a NBA/RHT rant either

That was a great basketball game. The only reason it could be compared to game 1 of the Cup finals is that last night the title was on the line. I hope game 7 is nearly as great though I am dubious.

The NHL playoffs have been way better than the NBA playoffs by far, but I think last night was the best of any single game in either playoffs.
