The only boring match I've seen was the French - Switzerland kick-about.    Nil-nil games can actually be exciting, as for example Trinidad & Tobago holding out against Sweden. But this one wasn't.

One thing I'm finding increasingly annoying is commentators who see their role as to gossip meaninglessly throughout the game, without any attempt to say anything useful, or any apprecation that when you have nothing to say, the thing to do is say nothing.

Radio is a bit better, and when there's a simultaneous radio broadcast you can turn down the volume on the TV and turn up the radio. By the nature of the medium radio commentators have to refer at times to what is actually going on, rather than endlessly launch into meaningless statistics about long gone matches, or speculation about players future transfer moves. But even there the TV style of commentating is having its influence.
