My favorite sport is football, American football. Soccer is my second favorite.

It's a very tough choice for me, but I decided on cricket in the end. I also like tennis, rugby union, gaelic football (international rules). ping pong, soccer...and the list goes on...Cool

Pretty much like most sports. Baseball is my favorite statistical or highlight watching sport(I like watching the long home runs). I usually only watch a few regular season games and the playoffs though. NFL football,basketball and hockey are sports I like to actually watch the majority of the game.

I like playing competitive volleyball as well.

Speed Skating, no contest. The only thing that is not horribly boring to watch.

     While I'm not questioning the difficulty of the game, I would be reluctant to play any sport that requires me to dress like a condom Tongue


     I like Gridiron football and Futbol, although Basketball will always be a favorite of mine since its the only organized sport that I've played (6-7 years). Its also the only sport I watch consistantly, I've been a huge Lakers fan for about 12 years.

How can you put up Darts before Ice Hockey! Come on, Hockeys the fastest sport on earth and has more history then any of the other sports in North America! So many eras and greats in Hockey, so many personalities, theres just so much to hockey! I can't believe it's not on the list!
I guess that just shows Hockey is on a higher level then any of those sports, it'd put the others to shame if it was on there...Tongue

Well, I made the poll at 2 in the morning, so it was hard coming up with choices! Rugby and hockey didn't even enter my mind until I woke up this morning. LOL
