I used to follow baseball, football (American), and basketball. As the years pass, my interested in sports diminishes. I pretty much don't care anymore.

The idea of the poll was to include sports that most people would have an opportunity to participate in and keep it to the athletic subclass of sport.  To be honest, probably could have left golf off.  I am a fly fisherman but include that in my  relaxation and non-competitive side, so I just didn't think of putting fishing in there.  Cricket, you are probably right that it's just my U.S. bias.  Then again I did include Aussie rules and Sepak Tekraw for our Asian cohorts.  And I bet at least one person on these boards has competitively shoved a ferret down their trousers.  And no form of Race Car/Mortorcycle/SpeedBoat etc. qualifies. Sorry. I suppose I could have put crew or kayaking.

For my part, I voted hockey. I love all forms, Ice, Field and for the person who said Lacrosse, I consider it a form of hockey.  I'd like to play ice hockey at the local rink, but I can't depend on my schedule being regular enough to pay the bucks. As for the others, I like playing basketball but hate watching it. Golf and Baseball bore me silly. Soccer/Football is great, but I could do w/o the prat falls. Australian Rules Football is a superior form of rugby, but it gets looked down upon, apparently even in much of Australia. As far as American Football goes, I watch it until ice hockey season starts. It's become less about the game and more about Tostitos, Nokia, techsiteof themonth.com and whoever sponsors the Superbowl half-time show. It's really hard to care about anymore. 
 
BTW, i think some of you must have replied but not voted. I see a very definite thumbs up for tennis, but no tennis vote.

If there was more soccer on TV I'd watch it. Other than that, basically hearing from family how the Yankees are doing.

The only sport I do/watch ever is Karate (also watch any other form of martial arts I am familiar with).  Normally I only like watching competition stuff, kata, traditional kumite, demos, and that kinda stuff, but I don't like seeing wrestling or full contact martial arts (muay thai, etc).  

I don't watch any other sports, except for our high school's home football games.

That isnt what you asked for on the previous page.

Besides, what if I told you I spent my weekends taking part in the Radical Bi-duro championship? (I dont, but thats besides the pointWink).
