Chris Hoy's win last year is probably the only reason (apart from the above mentioned hordes of brain-dead couch potatoes) that Cavendish didn't win this year. At least Cycling, Athletics and Boxing are, more often than not, worth watching for excitement and entertainment. I have not been interested enough to watch a full F1 race since Schumacher retired, and was probably still at primary school (not old enough to know any better) when I last sat through 90 minutes of the national game. They even have to add even more time on to each half these days to try to give them a chance to do something interesting. |
