Do any of you guys watch sports, or are you all just computer nerds?

I'll happily watch basketball, hockey, baseball and NFL, but I don't really keep up with American sports, although I'd probably root for the Red Sox myself, possibly the Mariners - 'cause I've seen them.

I gotta say that football (soccer) is my all time favourite, partly obsessed with it, but not to the point of madness.
 
i hate WATCHING sports ON TV and keeping up with it. but if someone asked me to goto a game, i'd love to. most of all i enjoy PLAYING sports. sadly i don't have enough free time to do this, the materials to, or the ability to get enough people together for a good game of, say, basketball... also the weather sux lately. though i am taking a tennis course next semester. so i guess that counts for something.
 
I grew up in a house where my dad and two brothers are addicted to NBA
and college basketball.... so basketball is a part of my life...

As for me, I watch them all.... I've always loved baseball, and hockey (although, i dont watch hockey anymore)
and I realllllllly got into football in the past 3 years that I live here.


Oh and the crazy part is.... I don't like soccer... :goggly:
and that sport was EVERYWHERE around me back home...
crazy, I know.
 
i dont care about professional sports at all. im just not interested in grown adults playing a game, and i find watching them on tv a pretty tedious afair. i went to some Giants and A's games as a kid, a 49ers game, and a few international level soccer games, and those were pretty fun and exciting IN PERSON. on tv its just a total snorefest with a million comercials and i just dont care. its not like im just some unathletic sports hater or something, i played soccer from about age 4-5 till i was like 18, i also ran track for about 5 years in there, and played t-ball or whatever (kids baseball before you start pitching) a few seasons but wasnt really into it, baseball moves too slow. its just kinda funny when people ask me about sports and i tell them i dont know or care about any of them and dont even know what season it is or whatever. people just cant fathom that a person wouldnt care about sports, like you're a fucking weirdo becuase you couldnt give a shit about a bunch of people chasing a ball around trying to throw it through a hoop. i respect the athleticism, but im just not interested.
 
I'll watch boxing, MMA like UFC and Pride, any sort of martial arts competition. The only other sport I enjoy watching is rugby, but that isn't broadcast very much around here.

Hey neal, i played soccer for a while too and now i dont like sports! Maybe its something about that particular sport.
yeh, i think running for 90 minutes passing a ball around without using your hands makes standing in one spot and swinging a stick at a ball seem pretty fuckin lame by comparison haha.
 
I play baseball... actually I shouldn't give myself so much credit, its only slowpitch, but thats because there arent any baseball teams to join.. but I wont watch sports on TV.
 
When I golf, I like to aim at the young prison guards that act all macho. They never see where the ball came from. :D
 
i used to play sports in elementary school..i was on the softball team and the basketball team...i was never really good at it but i was decent defense on a basketball team..i was taller than most other girls so i kinda owned them...
that was like 13 years ago however...i couldnt do that kind of thing now..i sard most sports, however hockey is fun to watch sometimes...
