Offenses that go shotgun on 4th and 1, especially long developing stretch running plays

The end game of basketball. Last minute takes 5 times as long as it should, and the game is stilted and way less entertaining.

That forward flip jet sweep play counting as a passing TD for the QB

The last minute of a basketball game taking 20 minutes

Lsu football is really good at getting to 3rd and short and then false starting. That shite drives me insane.

I also dislike the following:

faking injuries to create artificial stoppages
load management as a term, concept, and as implemented
the overuse of the term "velo"
Television announcers that step all over huge moments
the designated hitter
CBS college football presentations
preseason polls
tanking
NBA fake fights by fake tough guys
basketball players jumping into contact for fouls

Punter kicks the ball, announcer says it’s a bad punt but it takes a good roll. You dumb son of a bitch, the roll is part of the punt so the returner can’t get it and it allows the coverage team to get there. Therefore it is a good punt you cockleberry fricking fig.

I didn't like it when the NFL changed its number of regular season games and wouldn't like it if the MLB or NBA did the same. It fricks up all the regular season records.

When DBs celebrate an incompletion when the QB overthrows his target. Bonus points if the DB gets burned on said play.

Bailout timeouts in basketball when a player is trapped, can't get the ball inbounds within 5 seconds, falls on the floor or is falling out of bounds.

Receivers and running backs making a 1st down, jumping up like they scored the winning touchdown in the Super Bowl------while their team is behind by 20 points with 2 minutes left in the game.

Commercial after a TD and a commercial after kick-off.



I saw one play in 8 minutes.

The massive shift in judgment calls that goes the way of the losing team.

Basketball player with the ball constantly backing "bumping" his way into the paint knocking the guard out of position without getting a foul. Most of the time when a foul is called its on the guard.
Shaq was the worse. Starting to dislike basketball because of it.

Refs letting basketball players carry as they dribble. You dont see it called a lot today.

New short yardage formation now allowed in the NFL.

Soccer... all of it.

When two plays are run n football and the first play may gain five yards and there is a sure holding call that gets ignored and then the second play is really good and gains 1st down yardage and then a flag comes in for a holding call that wasn’t close to holding like the play before….
