What is your favorite sport?

Post Reply New Topic

Probably basketball, it is the sport I most understand and find exciting. I also like American football and baseball.

I'm not that into sports.

I don't like sports, I don't participate in any and I don't spectate either.

I don't play any sports (I sort of wish I did but am too shy to play in a team)

I didn't like P.E. (sports lessons) in high school (because high school is an awful place to be if you're not that good looking) but after that I went to upper school where P.E. was organised in sets and I loved it because I had this amazingly friendly girl in my set (bottom set for the unfit students) and she was really kind to me, especially if I did something right for the team (which wasn't too hard in a group of non-sporty people) - she was very popular and always enthusiastic and seemed really happy and had lots of friends and I tried to do good to impress her but one day they moved her to a different set... and I was very sad afterwards, still am 3 years later. I recently had a theory that she was planted in my set by one of the teachers because I used to stand around, not join in the sport and look sad and maybe they wanted to do something nice for me: What was a sporty person like her doing in bottom set anyway? They took my other friend away before this because we'd stand and talk about video games or something stupid in whatever sport we did.

This doesn't have much to do with this post but it makes me feel good to say it

American football.

Curling

The most enjoyment I get out of sports is obsessing over the rules. I get quite infuriated when a football referee makes a wrong call, when you can clearly see what's happening from the slow motion replays.

Tennis

Kip, I can relate; I don't get the excitement of watching sports either... I prefer disasters. *evilemoticon*

I watch the news, that's my sport.

I used to love sailing, though I had problems concentrating on it... too much crap in my life. I love swimming. I love watching the diving and swimming in the Olympics on TV. That's about all.

I really like dodgeball for some reason, I'm better at dodging balls than I am at catching them lol

Shooting Guns is my favorite sport.

Motorsports.

Rally, IMSA and Trans-Am are the big ones, but about a year ago I started watching NASCAR too. Who knew turnin' to the left involved so much strategy?

Rock climbing.

It's funny that the poll proposes team sports only.

I've been watching auto racing since the 1960s.

I also like NASCAR, even though I'm a "liberal" who lives in NYC.

I used to watch NASCAR when Richard Petty was its star. I watched the Indy 500 every year, too. I watched it very often on "Wide World of Sports" in the 60s and 70s. I also like drag racing.

At this point, though, my favorite sport is baseball. It was football back in the 1980s.
