Cricket! It is simultaneously the most genteel sport out there in-play, yet the most trash-talking sport I have ever seen debated on the internet. It's kinda frickin' hilarious.
I got into cricket a bit because of an ex-boyfriend who sort of brainwashed me into it by watching endless test matches, with couch cuddles as my reward for watching. At first I totally thought it was a made-up sport, like quiddich or something, but it actually has this long, intricate history that inspires American baseball and stuff. Who knew, right?
I should watch this documentary of which you write.
