Which sport is your favorite one to watch?
For those of you who don’t like sports maybe you can just sort of talk about whatever it is that nerds talk about or something. I hear they are about to activate the Hadron Collider so that is probably pretty exciting for you…

i like watching soccer and south pacific rugby (all blacks, tahiti, samoa–any team with a Haka war chant at the beginning).
soccer- i prefer to be watching in a pub with crazy europeans wearing flag shirts or face paint. world cup is tight.
i like watching games at dodger stadium because i can walk there.

Watching soccer, playing soccer. Favorite sports moment…i have a ton but they are from games my team played. One of my teammate’s dads running up to a port-o-potty and knocking it over with the other team’s assistant coach inside was a favorite moment. We lost that game.

My fave to watch is probably curling.
My favorite moment is the World Cup head/chest-butt.
Favorite to play is sloshball (the real way: softball not kick-ball).

I like to watch football generally. The best thing I ever witnessed was when Larry Johnson hit the four point play and the Knicks finally beat the Pacers.
The question about the octopus is saving me from hour after hour of headaches from robots that post viagra ads on here. I’ll try to make it so that it remembers your answer when you navigate back.
Sorry about that, Stefan and Lauren. If you register an account, you don’t have to answer the question.

Womens basketball is my favorite to watch, live only. I like to play soccer, but never do…

I love baseball the best.
My favorite moment was being at the last game for the 1989 WS. I was an Oakland fan at the time and while I was only 10 it was a great day and I have never felt an intesity so strong at any event.
I don’t play sports because for the most part I am not too good at them. That being said a nice game of catch in the park or rambunctious sloshball game will get me off the sidelines.

god, i have such a boner over the hadron collider. today they have sent the first blasts of protons to ensure the magnets can direct them through the 27 km tunnels.

I bet that Greg will post a picture of the Hadron collider tomorrow. On his notebook it said “GREG HEARTS HADRON COLLIDER” in his handwriting.

Yeah but also Greg is a good sporting man as I know from his previous posts re God’s Favorite Sport.

watching football. i always look forward to sundays during football season. when i am not at a raider game, i am at home being a couch potato and watching football. i really need to get the NFL ticket on cable. the local stations show such crappy games.
college football is secondary to nfl. i’m a big oregon duck fan since U of O is my alma mater. i always try to watch the oregon games on saturdays.
i also enjoy watching soccer, mainly the english premier league. i get the fox soccer channel and the gol channel. so i get to see most of the EPL, italian serie a, la liga, and bundes league games throughout the weekend. during the season my tivo is filled with recorded games.
favorite sports moment i witnessed. that’s an easy one. i went to the champions league quarter finals a couple years ago in rome. manchester united was playing roma. i was a manchester united fan in disguise wearing all kinds of roma gear. thank god i did, those fans are crazy! there was a huge riot after roma scored the first goal. some ManU fans were stabbed and put in the hospital. it was unlike anything i had ever seen before.
favorite sport to play. ugh… nothing… i’m so not athletic at all. the only thing i like to do is run. that’s a sport, right?
