I love badminton...play most weeks, though I'm not particularly great (my backhand is frankly abysmal!). I've played for years though and always enjoyed it.
I like the hierarchy peaceninja (though not sure I agree)!! I used to play squash too, but it kind of fell by the wayside as I was more into and relatively better at badminton. Also used to play tennis a lot, but again badminton was the preffered option for me...more people I knew played it and it was more a sport you could play all year round.
Well every game is nice to playe unless you play it. I thought table tennis was a boring game whenever i watched it on the TV . But it was unless i played it my self I loved it really and then watching on TV was also a treat. Its like you like a game when you know how it is played. As far as badminton in concerned I myself played it alot and its really a good game and i think its popular almost every where .
here badminton is not popular at all. i've never played badminton nor seen a badminton court. in fact, i thought it was rather boring until i saw a match between i-don't-remember-who at the olympics and i found it quite funny. it would be interesting to play it some day.
However it is a great sport to play and good fun. Also very good for fitness ie. strength and stamina in particular
