I guess we should qualify this as National or International. I've never seen any of these 3.1st tier sports:
NFL
EPL
La Liga
Serie A
Formula 1
MLB (but this is dying)
NASCAR is close, but not quite there.
This makes sense. NHL is first tier, went to a early regular season NHL game last night and it was more exciting than attending the fourth game of the world series. Crosby, Sakic, Smyth, and Malkin. That was awesome.Is it already time for Joe's NHL bashing thread?

You think MLB is better than women's tennis?Major League Baseball.

MLB is not dying. MLB is bringing in money hand over fist and has expanded it's market to the Far East and Latin America and fans are going to the ballpark more than they ever have. MLB is more popular than American football right now in the world and it's growing exponentially. It isn't as popular as football in the States anymore but it is still the #2 sport and it's reach is going to become the chief rival of soccer because the Asians love it. And frankly, there are a lot of Asians. Hispanics in the Western Hemisphere love it too and they are providing some of the best players these days. Oh and btw, Baseball>FootballHTHThe Z Machine said:1st tier sports:NFLEPLLa LigaSerie AFormula 1MLB (but this is dying)NASCAR is close, but not quite there.

Also the World Cup and Olympics are sporting events, not sports. Soccer is played at the World Cup, all kinds of sports/sporting events at the Olympics.I'm pretty sure "Olympics" isn't a sport.

olympic hockey is kind of coolPoker is more of a sport than hockey.
how do you remember to breathe?Poker is more of a sport than hockey.
Poker is more of a sport than hockey.
NHL hockey live is one of the best tickets you can get.it amazes me how the NHL gets no respect. This is probably the most exciting spectator sport going, and people will watch NBA over this? Simply mind-boggling.
How anyone can put the NBA is tier 1 blows my mind. This is by far the worst sport out there, it's totally unwatchable. I'd rather watch a bunch of cars go in circles for hours on end. At the same time, it amazes me how the NHL gets no respect. This is probably the most exciting spectator sport going, and people will watch NBA over this? Simply mind-boggling.
"You look at the nhl playoff [ratings] numbers, and they have been beaten pretty soundly by poker and bowling," said Paul Swangard, managing director of the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center at the University of Oregon.
definite hippie sport...I have no idea why either.Disc Golf:tokesup:
Big thumbs down to minor league hockey though. I went to a Chicago Wolves game, and wasn't real impressed with the product on the ice...but they did a lot of neat things for the kids/fans though.I've heard the NHL product is much faster, which would interest me more.NHL hockey live is one of the best tickets you can get.it amazes me how the NHL gets no respect.
