I'm assuming the big 5 are going to be dominating, but how much of each do you watch, and what other sports do you enjoy (be it olympics, or MMA, or whatever)
1) baseball - far & away #1. i watch any team any time and keep up on my iPhone app when I can't watch or listen.
2) Football - I try to catch the Pats & the Bears, but sunday isn't built around football.
3) MMA - I will watch it if I see that it is on - for free or on youtube.
4) (tie) basketball / hockey) - If its the last game of the playoffs and the celtics or bruins are in it.
5) soccer - if I need to take a nap
6) Golf - See #5
7) I like swimming and diving on the summer olympics
I like the ski jumping and speed skaingon the winter ones.
1. Baseball - it's always on, playoffs are great 2. Pro Basketball - best athletes, most interesting athletes 3. College Football 4. Pro Football 5. Tennis - mostly the big events 6. Golf - see above 7. College Hoops - I'll watch the Big Ten, but that's about it. Typically overrated. 8. Hockey 9. Soccer - I don't hate the sport, but sometimes I find myself getting sucked into a match 10. Auto racing 11. Little League World Series - it's fun when the losing team cries

I think we already had this thread. Nonetheless... 1. Hockey-I watch the Ducks religiously, try to catch a few Kings games and national games. Around playoff time I can't be unglued to the TV. 2. College football-Similar, though with nowhere near the passion for the game itself. 3. Pro football-Sunday's are pretty much built around football since it's by far my fiance's favorite sport 4. College basketball-Watch a few games here and there during the regular season. March Madness is awesome 5. MLB baseball-Like the game but boring how you can predict who will make the postseason with about 90% accuracy every year 6. Soccer-Love the World Cup, the rest is pretty meh though.
24930764390274398. NBA Basketball-Wish it would disappear off the planet and take all Laker fans with it.

2. MMA, I guess 3. Baseball. Very rarely watch this. 4. Hockey. Almost never watch it, but is fun when I do. 5. Basketball. Again, almost never watch it, but it's ok when I do.
The bottom line is I'm pretty much religious about football. I watch MMA quite a bit but don't care about it beyond watching the big fights and keeping track of a handful of fighters. I don't care about much else.

1. Football (College>Pro) (This is by far no.1 because there is just so much I love about it, and it took up 12 years of my life playing it, the 4 high school years it being by far the most important thing to me [not to say I slacked at grades, cause I didn't]) 2. MMA (really comiong into its own as somethign I've been getting really into as of late) 3. Basketball (College>Pro) 4. Pro Wrestling (lol) 5. Poker (lol) 6. Rugby/Aussie Rules Football 7. Soccer
not sure what else to put. not really a baseball, golf, or tennis man. i guess Muay Thai and K1 are pretty good. probably rank between 5 and 6. there are probably sports I'm forgetting. not forgetting hockey. i've just never gotten that into it. Poker might beat Pro Wrestling.

Where, and what position, did you play?
Football, both pro and college, is obviously at the top of my list. Although, if you asked me in the early 90s, it would have been baseball, and in the mid to late 90s, basketball.

played at Oak Hills High School in Cincinnati, OH. Graduated in 08 (so 07 was my last season). Played Nose Tackle primarily during my Junior and Senior years (started 8 games Jr year and probably 5 or 6 Senior year; games not started Jr year due to back injury, Sr year due to having another guy who was good enough to start there and me missing some practices during two a days and the beginning of the season due to aforementioned back issues). Also played some DT and ILB/MLB, I think I started two games at LB senior year(included in my total of 6 or so senior year).
