Although I have played 2 of these sports in my past, I now have no interest or time for them. Especially to watch them on the boob tube.
Who's with me?! All sports!

I'm so happy that baseball is back....My life has more meaning now.

Basketball is tough, withthe Knicks and Nets both rather tough to watch, although the Nets have thier moments.

Football.....blah....once in a while....if i have money on it....

Hockey....I could care less if it ever come back.....hopefully it doesnt.

Can't stand Baseball or Basketball.

Rarely watch baseball unless it's the Braves or the playoffs. Love it live.

Watch entirely too much football.

Will only watch hockey if it's live. Or if there's a season.

Starting to come around with basketball. But only a little.

There is little to compare with going to a baseball game in the spring.

<----In complete agreement, no matter what team you pull for.


I love going to Turner field on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon for a 1pm first pitch in April/May and it's about 60-65 degrees and perfect beer drinking weather.

Televised sports bore me greatly, but naturally I saved my vote for the hot chocolate option.

I often wish we had a separate forum for Sports, but I wouldn't press the issue.

I do enjoy going to games, but I don't really give a shit about any of the leagues and who plays for who now and all of the various dramas associated with pro and college sports. I used to care, especially about the NBA and college football, but somewhere over the years I found other stuff to do.

I don't hate sports, but I certainly don't want to discuss them. I usually never open any of the sports threads.

I used to love baseball. Now it doesn't really interest me, but I agree with Kung Fu and Derris about Spring+Baseball+Beer = Perfect.

Football (especially The Dawgs) rules the world.

College basketball gets exciting this time of year.

Everything else, with the exception of a fine boxing match or live Jai-Alai, Horse or Dog Racing, is pretty much meh.

Don't forget about our penchant for fine cockfighting (whilst wearing our fine gambling hats made from unborn dog skin).

Yes, I believe that is Loogar there whooping it up in the back of the crowd with an open Shaggy black wig on.

yes, that is me with the Shaggy black wig on. And, I DID write about sports. I wrote a fine column every month, at one point taking a whole page for my 1994 College Bball preview...It is true that I never wrote about school sports. hell, the girls' soccer team won STATE my senior year and we didn't run an article. Oh, that's not because I hate soccer, or girl's sports, it cuz I was HIGH.
