Nope, I don't play or watch any sports. I just work out for my own benefit.
I suppose if I had to pick one it would be skiing, but I think I do it more for fun rather than as a sport, because there is nothing competitive about it when I do it.

I don't play any sports but I do love baseball. For me the only good thing about summer is that pro baseball is being played. My favorite team for just about 50 years is the St. Louis Cardinals.



Edit: The Cardinals brought me and Russ together, we are both Cardinal fans.

Not in this lifetime.

Several years ago, DH and my brother took me to a professional hockey game. I hunkered down in my seat.......and promptly went to sleep. They woke me up when it was over. And never took me again.

I watch and play both football and hockey, and I love to get out and shoot some pool too. I used to play badminton, but I haven't done that for years. My favorite team is naturally the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

I do not play any sports myself. I am a huge baseball fan and my team is the Braves. I also enjoy watching college gymnastics and figure skating.

I love watching baseball (Mets) and football (Vikings) - and I get deeply involved.
(Even though the two teams I've chosen continue to break my heart)

I played softball on a company team a few years ago. I wasn't that great, but when some guy at my part-time job asked in a meeting about a month ago if anyone would be interested in fielding a softball team, I said "OOH!!!" and my hand shot up before I even thought about what I was doing.

Yikes. I have to practice. But my boyfriend plays - he lives for softball - and we'll work out together. He can even be on our team, which is great, because he's really good, which could make up for me being.......not as good.

No neither my DH or I like professional sports. Too much greed. That is what turned me off to football years ago. Here I am taking back cans to buy a loaf of bread, and some spoiled sports person can't get by on 20 million dollars. A complete turn off.

We do love to watch our grandkids play little league. The kids have a good time and there is nothing better than taking a lawn chair to the field and sitting in the warm evening sun with our families, cheering for our team.

My DH is the guy on the commercial for Porter/Cable tools. It shows a neighborhood after dark, each house you can hear cheering from a tv set over some sport. So, it goes house by house and the same thing. Then there is the one place where the house is dark, the garage is lit up and you hear the sounds of a saw.

That's us.

I enjoy bowling and drag racing. I also am very into pole dancing, which they are trying to get added as a sport in the olympics.

I occasionally watch bowling and football on TV.
