Hockey, by far. And then some.

A ball game lasts what, 4 hours, give or take? And in that 4 hours, there is what, 20 minutes of actual game play? Other than that its crotch grabbing, chew spitting, fat shaking and arm rubbing.

A hoacky game lasts about 3 hours. It has a full 60 minutes of action in that time. They don't toss away the bottom of the 3rd period if the home team is winning, they play through the entire scheduled game. They need Instant Replay because the game is so fast, no because the refs/umps are too fat to make a call.

I dare you to tell a Troy Crowder or a Georges Laraques that skating is only for kids and girls. There isn't a baseball player alive who could beat up the 40+ year old Tony Twist, I can promise you that...not even Nolan Ryan and his mound skills, haha.

Its your fault you can't follow the game, not the sport's. Its tiny surface that's all white, with a black puck used to contrast. If you can't follow that or figure out that the play is where the players are or are headed, it says more about you than it does the game you are trying to put down.
