I used to be a big Golf fan, in the days of Palmer, Nicholas, Chi Chi...etc..... Aand a big Basketball fan, when my Mom was on the Staff of the Univ of Dayton, but now, I will watch a bit of golf, football and basketball, but not much..

Sorry folks, baseball has always bored the carp out of me...like watching grass grow.. I used to love to go to the Cincy Reds game, years ago, though, when our office had box seats ..FUN.....

Hubby was a one sport guy, though,....NASCAR all the way!!! You would have loved him, DM.

I'm a fan of soccer but only when watching our local team and mostly it's only at the stadium. But then again I am odd myself so maybe it is an oddity.

NASCAR for sure!!!! Jeff Gordon!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!! Like Sally, baseball is too boring waiting around for something to happen......basketball too sweaty...hockey too violent. Football is good, especially college. Figure skating, skiing, gymnastics are all good. To each his own!

My husband will watch Soccer all day, but put on ANY other sport, and he will change the channel and go outside. He rarely peeks at Nascar, and none of the other sports interests him. Me? I like Nascar, but only in small doses. I will watch some of the olympics, but in small stretches. So, nope, not weird at all, we do it in our house too.

Btw, the DH used to be a goalie for a semi pro team. I think that is why he is so in love with the sport, he used to play it.

I think I would have too, Salpal!

BTW, speaking of Nascar?? YAHHHH! Tony for winning the All Star Race Sat night. . Oh, and I only watch Nascar, but DH loves the Bears, the Fighting Illini and Cubs. He watches parts of the races w/me, though.

My DH is a Jeff Gordon fan too and loves watching Nascar. I am not into sports at all except for Equestrian events (Western or English) as I love to watch the equine athletes.

(I don't care for horse racing because it is so sad that so many of these beautiful athletes end up in slaughterhouses in Canada and Mexico because they break down in a few years from being run so hard while their bones are still developing.)

I tried golf but my tremors made that a bit dangerous for others around me so now I ride in the cart which is fun too!
