I was just curious what other sports the contributors to this board watch.

Personally, I'm a big soccer fan and love that NBC covers the Premier League and Fox covers the Bundesliga, Champions League and UEFA League. I wish I had this to watch as a kid. I also enjoy college football more than the NFL. I've been wanting to get back into the NHL but just haven't had the time.

How about everyone else?

Love soccer, but I find it hard to keep up regularly outside of the World Cup and the European Championships.

Diehard college football and NFL fan, and watching both take up most of my free time on weekends in the fall.

Huge college lacrosse fan. Can't wait to see our squad compete again this spring. Really thankful the majority of our games are available on ESPN3.

I can't think of anything I wouldn't rather do than watch soccer or hockey. Both are nauseating....to me, at least.

I watch a lot of college basketball, obviously. In addition, I'm a big fan of the NBA and NFL. I like college football, but I'd say I'm more of a casual fan. Also, playoff baseball is pretty good. I've thoroughly enjoyed the postseason so far.

Really just College basketball and football for me. I usually throw down every Sunday for NFL football, but I can't bring myself to support the NFL right now. So I am patiently waiting for November 11th so I have something to watch on the television.

Yep....to each their own. (Even thought I'm right this time.) :p

dbav, you are alright with me, but dukiejay is correct here. That is my dsouth fact of the day. (otherwise known as an opinion)

Damn you both. Pooled mod power is an unfair advantage, like the National Team and recruiting.

I'm doing my best DSuckr, taking my ball and going home. :)

I can watch just about anything but baseball and get into it. I literally hate baseball.

I don't know how I left out golf. Maybe it's because I'm on Cloud-9 right now with the Vikings start to the regular season. While I'm still cautiously optimistic, it's ingrained in me to expect the worst at the worst possible time.

Just like a Dolphin fan dj. I actually have gone away from the NFL recently. Just not that in to the pro game any more. I however still love the college game.

1. College Football
2. NFL
3. Lumberjack Competitions

If I need a nap: golf, tennis, and baseball.
Is soccer a sport, just kidding.
Of course college basketball is at the top, nothing like March Madness!

If it were not for sports, life just wouldn't be that much fun for me. I don't care greatly for auto racing or pro baseball but do like college baseball occasionally. College football is great and I love high school sports and pulling for my former high school in everything just as I do Duke. Also love most of the Olympic Games, The PGA, NBA, NFL, pro billiards, the World Cup. I guess that about covers it.

Baseball, from MLB to youth. Football from NFL to high school. All basketball, golf, The Triple Crown of horse racing but it's the only time I watch it. Women's fast pitch softball. Take in a game or two. They play hard with fundamentals and bit's hard to hit a rising fast ball from 45 feet. OFC
