Actually tennis is VERY interesting to watch because of its speed.

Sure. That's why J'ai L'ai is the most popular spectator sport in the world, right?

Actually I live right in the heart of Jai Alai country and can tell you that while Jai Alai can SEEM boring, the MOMENT you bet some money on it, Jai Alai becomes the most exciting sport imaginable. I know since I will go into a frenzy after placing my Quinella bets. Try placing a bet on Jai Alai sometime and you will see how incredibly exciting it is.

I rather liked Jai Alai the few times I've seen it. ESPN still would prefer to run a two year old baseball game between non-contenders, though. Of course, in the USA, there's only one fronterón outside Florida. (At least that used to be true.)

The fronterón can't be made of concrete, it isn't strong enough. Granite works. (I wonder if there's a radiation hazard from the fronterón?)
