Yeah maybe I should have added soccer, but it won't let me change the list.
By the way my list is in no particular order.
I don't consider nascar a sport so I'll disregard that option.
Boring depends on whether you're playing or watching.
I love golf and baseball. To those uninformed of the game, many would probably consider it boring. I love it, especially watching a good ball game.
Personally, I find football and basketball a bore to watch.

Umm. Hockey, Soccer nor Basketball are US Sports. Unless you mean the leagues which take place in the US. In which case, I'd say MLB.
They still do. Every Sunday morning on ESPN, and daily on ESPN Classic.
Personally, I voted for football/gridiron. Too much stop/start, plus guys playing in padding = lame. Rugby and Aussie Rules Football are far more exciting than gridiron.
BL.
I said popular US Sports, not where they originated from. Some people
Could be interpreted either way. Some Americans
It was started in Springfield, Massachusetts (United States). I'm sure you can document a couple cases of someone throwing a ball through an elevated opening elsewhere in the world, but the sport we now call basketball was invented in the United States.
Basketball was invented by someone born in Canada. It was invented in the US and achieved widespread success and legitimacy in the US. I'd argue basketball is an American sport even though its inventor was Canadian.
Football. I can't think of anything more boring, sport or otherwise.
Baseball is about the only sport I can stomach watching, though it's more fun when you're there in person. I probably mostly like it for the food though, honestly.
