So what sport(s) DO you follow?
« on: February 28, 2018, 09:40:00 PM »
For me, it's pretty much just Pro American Football. I hear stuff about the college games and I have a neighbor that asks me all the time about how his high school does, but, yeah, that's it. Well, I'll also follow the stats in baseball and talk that sport with the same neighbor, who's a totally dedicated White Sox fan.

I am not big on sports but I do always watch football (the REAL football not that US version in which foot and ball rarely meet and people just fall over all the time on top of eachother) world cup championships and european championships...And some selected Champion's League matches.

During Olympics I usually follow some of the "stranger" sports...summer games I love archery...and winter games I looooooooove Curling.

I know being from Finland I should live and breathe ice hockey but frankly I don't really care much of it...I do watch it sometimes...but that's about it.

Sometimes due to circumstances i follow sports without any interest. Mainly winter sports, and within that mainly the different varieties of skiing. And curling, if the Norwegians are doing alright (Kristin Skaslien who ended up with bronze in mixed double is from the place where i live  :wootwoot: :P ).
Was pretty sure i was going to get very into the recent Olympics, but this place and noodling on my guitar made me unable to pay attention. Luckily...
In periods i've also been into Formula 1 (mainly rooting for Finns  :banana: and/or the Ferrari team) and Rallycross, atleast when Petter Solberg is on his game.
And sometimes handball in bigger competitions (European and World Championships and the Olympics).

Most of my exposure to race sports is by way of Top Gear / The Grand Tour. :rofl:

I've always followed the NFL, and being from New England I follow the Pats, Jets and Giants. Really into NASCAR, all 3 major series. I know people will say round and round and round, but like baseball it's the game within the game: pit stop or no pit stop, 2 tires or four tires or fuel only, the passing going on all over the track. Exciting to me.

Oh and of course, being from Connecticut, I follow women's college basketball. UConn Huskies have been dominant for years. Fun to watch.

I've got a guy who does my lawn. When he's done with my yard work, we're friends and talk sports. In the baseball season, he's a huge White Sox fan.

He's had a lot of rough years as a White Sox fan. He's also a Chicago Bulls fan and a Chicago Bears fan. He's disappointed a lot...

Have not been a fan of any particular team for over 25 years now, but a little loyalty is still left in me for the Boston Bruins.  Plus I enjoy watching hockey.

Not into watching sports unless it is Olympic Hockey and sometimes the NHL. I like to play some sports but I have never been very good at them. I am pretty indifferent to all the major sports organizations.

Bravo to Zinédine Zidane, the only coach who has won the Champion League 3 times in a row. He was the best football player of all times . The guy has won everything in his career . A class act .

World Cup kicks off next month. Is there enough interest on here to start a thread on it?

Understandable our US friends won't be interested  :whistling:

What's "World Cup" ?  :D

Hey Jack, how is it that your Tampa Bay Lightning did not score even 1 goal in their last 2 games against Washington?  I didn't see that coming.  :o
