Favorite Sport

[romafan]

Real football.
Serie A, CL, World Cup. Would love to follow EPL, La Liga, etc. but can barely keep up w/ Italian scores/headlines.

Anti-stat man, so no interest in main USA sports. Whenver I try to watch something (World Series game, last quarter of SuperBowl, etc.) the commercial breaks and 'color' commentators sned me running from the room screaming.

Sigh...Eurosnobs. They are so cute.

I like soccer too but I don't feel the need to demean all other sports.

Sorry - I'm just insecure. You didn't offer a SouthAmerican alternative so Euro it is....

This is kind of tough for a couple of reasons:

(1) I often get into and out of things as time passes. Sometimes I watch a lot of MMA and boxing, other times I miss a few events in a row, same thing for some other sports.

(2) Different sports play in different seasons. During the winter season I try to catch as many Devils hockey games as I can. During the summer, I try to catch as many Mets games as I possibly can.

(3) Some sports play every day (baseball) so it's hard to catch every game; other sports require less of a time investment (NFL).

(4) Some sports are easy to watch on tv because you don't have to pay that much attention (baseball, soccer); other sports, if you're not paying consistent attention, there's no point to even having the game on (basketball).

Having said all that, I probably watch MMA more than anything else, then hockey and baseball are probably tied, followed by soccer and basketball, and finally football. On the other hand, I do try to catch as many matches as possible in tennis grand slams, but those aren't always on.

The conclusion is, this poll is useless.

Yeah, football.

Dumb football jocks don't even know how to embed youtube videos. Let a former soccer player help you out:

Fight it out boys. Your perceived penis size depends on the outcome!

 

[romafan]

Football, errr, soccer leads the race!

Sorry I'm not a nerd.





I love how a "hard play" in soccer is one that was not part of the match and a sucker move.

It's important to be protected when you spend 2 hours sitting on a bench sipping Gatorade while watching the other 74 players of your team taking turns on the field, 2.3 seconds at a time.

football =/= rugby.

Not defending football, merely pointing out that soccer is a sport where being the biggest pansy is now part of the game, vis a vis, flopping around on the ground for a minute after being brushed.

Oh what's that? It's an act? So in soccer you act like a giant vajeen and that's acceptable? Interesting.

Oh, sorry, never actually watched your youtube videos before posting since you didn't embed them right.
