What sports do you follow?

Well, ladies.... quick poll:

What sports (if any) do you follow?

I'll start:

I'm a huge college sports fan - so football, basketball (men & women's), soccer, some golf

-I also have just started golf lessons and so will be paying attention to the PGA & LPGA

NFL, NBA, Tennis, a little MLS

That's pretty much it

Sports

Hmmm. I follow the NFL (you can't live in Pittsburgh and not follow football, they'll toss you off a bridge) and women's pro football. But I'll watch almost anything with either women or horses competing. I got so excited when Rags To Riches won the Belmont, the first filly to do so in 102 yrs, that I ran laps around the room waving my arms and cheering like a lunatic. I still smile when I think of that race!

College > Pro

On Tobacco Road, a love for all things collegiate is required, so I stay tuned into the big college sports--football and men's and women's basketball.

Otherwise, I pay attention to MLB (Go Yankees!), NFL, NBA, tennis...and of course, soccer.

I should concede that while I enjoy professional sports, nothing comes close to my love for college athletics (basketball, in particular).

Sports Fanatic

NFL, WNBA, I just started following soccer again after a long break, NBA during the finals, MLB (when the Yankees suck and during the playoffs), college football, womens college hoops, mens college hoops (during the tournament only), summer and winter olympics, tennis, NHL (during the playoffs), womens soccer....there could be more I just don't recall right now

I sting like a butterfly

I do appreciate athletics - it's like watching herds of wildebeest sweeping majectically ...

My intellectual side likes cricket. You messed about, I caught you out, Howzat!

I can watch a local game of rubgy live.

I won't mention spectating on women's bodybuilding. Oops, I just did.

cricket!! my favourite

cricket!! my favourite sport. I don't watch anything else - though I admit to being slightly addicted to curling during the last olympics, I don't know why. I'd never even heard of curling before that.

But I'm obsessed with cricket. one of my few pleasures in life. Love everything about it, everything. I was hoping someone else would bring cricket up.

Running and cycling,

Running and cycling, religiously.

I'm also a huge MLB fan and follow the NFL pretty closely because I'm in a pool.

My partner is an avid follower of the LPGA, so I'm a fan by default.

Ultimate Frisbee!!!

I'm a devout roadie and triathlete (woooooo! Well done Chrissie Wellington) but that's not so well broadcast. Neither is Ultimate Frisbee....or rock climbing...or mountain biking. So I settle for Premier League Football. Manchester United in particular.

still crazy after all these years

Horseback riding. Mostly

Horseback riding. Mostly show jumping and sometimes dressage. I would also follow galloping and trotting races, if there would be the possibility, and cross country, but alas.

 

Oh yeah, I ride. Mostly do show jumping, but would like to get into dressage, also.

Volleyball whether its

Volleyball whether its beach,college,high school, olympics its pretty much the only thing Ill sit and watch if its on tv. 

Football-NFL only cause thats what gets the family together. Steelers fan all round, tho recently became Eagles fan just cause cousin just got drafted.

Rugby is also a favorite tho we can only get coverage for the tri-nations,sevens and the worldcup.

Im an ex-mormon but I still keep up with my BYU football,basketball,volleyball even soccer.

Then the occasionly NWA/WWE women action only when I visit the other side of the valley.

My favourites are football

My favourites are football (otherwise known as soccer), tennis, huge fan of both & keep very up to date on most/all areas of those two sports. Rugby & cricket I enjoy watching when it's a big event or something. I also enjoy watching some golf (for instance I love watching the Ryder Cup), things like the olympic games I love watching the whole array of sport you get there. I also love watching (though rarely get to actually watch them) things like the X-Games & the winter sports like snowboarding etc.
