Fencing. Too bad USFA changed scoring rules, now it's sort of a joke...

Argh I can't pick...

I LOVE football, soccer AND hockey and can't pick between them

Favourites would be Minnesota Vikings, Manchester United (since birth
) and Toronto Maple Leafs

Why tennis of course. I could never forget the legendary matches between Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe. Bjorn had the style, looks and cool nerves, while John was the fiery and explosive American, always disputing calls and arguing with umpires. Awesome personalities. Too bad tennis today is so boring and tiresome. Too many nice guys around...

Hockey!
It really is bred into me I think....very excited to see the Oilers pre-season game against the Leafs...2 weeks to go!
Football has become 2nd though, I love the Houston Texans
My bf is a MAJOR Giants fan so I cant do anything but live and breathe NFL too

I picked other because it's a toss up between 3 - Football, Hockey and NASCAR.

My teams are the Denver Broncos, Colorado Avalanche, and the #20 The Home Depot team with driver Tony Stewart.

We were getting really into Aussie Rules Football, but then the channel that carried it in the US lost the rights in Oz and we don't get the games anymore.
I didn't watch it long enough to get a favorite team (only 2 years), and Danielle told me who to cheer for but since I didn't ever get to see them I forgot.

Nothing beats horse racing! Jockeys are sooooo underrated, with boxers and maybe racecar drivers having a more demanding workout.

Show Jumping is awesome as well, but unfortunately it's so hard to find a good message board or website to keep myself up-to-date on all that's going on. And there aren't as many competitions on TV (not as many as the horse races, anyway). Summertime is such an exciting season, when the road to the Kentucky Derby starts up, and Spruce Meadows gets in full swing. And when the Masters goes off at Spruce Meadows at the end of September, and then the Breeders' Cup in the racing world in late October/early November, well it's just awesome!

only sport i still watch is racing.
i cant stand football anymore

and now, here unless your cable company or dish carry it,
you cant see baseball or college football games.
forget them, it just frees me up to do other things,,

i think in time, deals like this will decrease the fan base of pro treams and college teams.

Football (soccer) and Formula One motor-racing.

Football in England isn't a sport- its a religion


I'm still hoping that Alonso will win F1 this year

Baseball! Surprised how few voted for! Yankees is my team, but follow and admire several players in the leagues!
