I think they all have changed, and not for the better.
Tennis- Racquets so powerful it's impossible to play a serve and volley game anymore.
Baseball-Steroid juiced monsters making homeruns a hohum thing. Lazy admirers failing to run out hits.
Football-300 pound plus lineman endangering their health, boring predictable play calling, prevent defense never works.
Basketball is Basketbrawl
Hockey-No more open ice, defense oriented, neautral zone trap crap

Believe it or not I think Darts has came back with a vengeance, In the
last few years. It was quite stale for a few years & now they're having
record crowds, more prize money, roadshows, neon lights, showgirls &
catchy intros. There are a lot of emerging players from overseas, especially
holland & I can only see the sport continue to grow.
