Masters
Watching a great golf tournament like the Masters or even playing a round of golf is so much more satisfying then watching the Leafs loose...repeatedly, don't you think? Bottomline, if you're not into a particular sport, it's boring. Imagine being bored driving a Vette, nah not possible.

Hey golf haters that was a Great tournament.
Best of all, a car guy won it. Bubba bought the original Genera Lee, while a few of us we at the Scottsdale Barrett Jackson in 2012. He drives it to many events.
Most non golfers don't enjoy or understand the game. Until you get into the sport, you don't realize the gratification and enjoyment the game can bring.
I enjoy most sports. Minor up to Junior Hockey & Golf are my favorites.
A professional golfer eats what he kills. If he does not make the weekend cut. He does not get paid and will eventually loose his playing card. Only the top 125 in earnings-retain their PGA card for the following year. If they loose this privilege they have to go to Q school to attempt to get back in or play on a lessor tour for a fraction of the money. A couple of bad years and the guy is looking for a new career.
A professional hockey player signs a multi year contract for millions of dollars. As leaf fans we see these results year in and year out.
The rest of the team can carry an overpaid player for years. Ie, Clarkson.
His salary equated to about 1 million dollars per goal, this year. He will still get his overpriced salary for the next few years, regardless of his pathetic play.
I am going to organize another CFCE golf tournament this year. Come on out, you will have a great time. Tentative Dates to be announced soon.

too walk those hallowed grounds at the Masters is a once in a life time opportunity--myself and my son Jason where afforded that opportunity and will be forever grateful!! Mark is completely right---you would need to understand the game and the dynamics of the game to have a complete apprieciation for its format!! And Bubba won again--BONUS!!!
