What sports do/will you watch?

I am right now watching the Patriots (football) by myself because I like watching football. Well, if it's "my" team I like it :) I'll also watch Red Sox baseball and Celtics basketball. DH watches soccer but I don't really unless I'm too lazy to leave the room when it's on. I don't like to watch hockey even if it's the Boston team. How about you?

Re: What sports do/will you watch?

  • I watch and follow American football. The Colts are my team, though they are sad as sad can be this season. Other than football I don't watch anything else.

  • I hate American football with a passion. We watch British football 24/7 in our house, although it is dh watching it and I am just there. DH watches American football too, and we watch baseball. I can't watch anything else.

  • I love American football (Jets fan), i'll watch any game that is on. I also watch baseball (Red Sox), though I'm not as into it as I used to be. I'm actually playing fantasy football this year and I love it.

    I'll also watch some hockey (Bruins) and basketball (Celtics), but mostly just if DH is watching or a team I like is in the playoffs.

  • We watch and follow almost every sport.  I love baseball (Reds and Yankees, but I'll happily watch anyone play).  We watch a lot of football, H is a huge Chelsea supporter, but it's like baseball in our house.  We watch regardless of team or league playing.  I watch every F1 race.  I love international rugby and watch the major tournaments every year.  I like college basketball, but really only go out of my way to watch March Madness.  H is a WNY boy so hockey gets played a bit as well.
     
    If American football is on I'll only watch it if the Bengals are playing, but I stopped following that a couple years ago because it's too painful.
      
  • I watch Hockey and auto racing.  The Red Wings are my team of choice. And F1 is my race of choice.

    I must have married the only Australian male that doesn't watch sport.  He watches the auto racing, tolerates the hockey if the Wings are playing (I think he just knows better than to object) and that's about it.  No Rugby, no AFL, nothing.

    And your driver of choice is...? 

  • I watch football, but only really college football.  I just don't care for professional football.  I'm a fan of Alabama, Arkansas, and any team that's playing LSU.

    I watch baseball when I have time, I'm a Cubs fan.  I watch hockey if it's on, though I have no particular favorite team.

    I will drop everything and spend hours in front of the tv for the Olympics -- winter or summer, I watch everything but boxing, though my favorites are swimming, skiing, and curling.  And I am all over the Triple Crown (mainly from my years serving as secretary to a horse-racing mad attorney, and the fact that one of the clients owned horses that were ran for several years).

    I haven't really been able to get into local sprots here, and I am not sure I want to.  DH and his family like watching tennis and car races, and I cannot imagine a more boring thing to do with my time.

    No, my DH isn't into sport either.  Car racing when it's on, but other than that, nothing.  When I ask questions about AFL or Rugby, he tells me "you are the only person on the continent who knows less about it than me."

  • We watch American football, both professional and college.  We also watch "real" football, but only big tournaments like the Euro, Asia, or World Cups, or the qualifying matches that lead up to those tournaments.

    Also like the Olympics as well, more summer than winter though.

  • The only sport I watch is hockey (Sabres).  Since it isn't on TV much here I will watch any hockey game that is on.  DH will watch anything although his favorites are aussie rules football and cricket.

    LOL!  Well, now we know there are four of us.

    I don't really have one.  One of the reasons I like auto racing is the sounds of the engines out me to sleep.  So I watch the first 10-20 laps, sleep through the rest.

  • I hate American football! DH is a huge football fan (Australian NRL) and although I don't love it, I certainly don't hate it as much as I let on! Lol (Don't tell him!)

    I love to watch hockey (Rangers fan) and baseball (Yankees) and basketball.

    Make that 5. DH is Australian and he doesn't watch any AFL, Rugby, or Cricket. He also doesn't drink beer. 

    As for me, I'll only watch soccer when it is World Cup or Euro Cup time. I don't mind the Champions League. I used to watch soccer a lot more, but I just don't have time and I have no TV. I never liked American Football; I don't even understand it and it takes so long. I don't mind baseball- but only the Yankees. I like the Olympics, especially Curling and Figure Skating. 

  • I don't like watching any sports, but DH watches soccer highlights on the internet almost daily (we have no TV).  I'd watch soccer with him sometimes, if it's something big, like the world cup or the european championship.
