personally i love
golf, archery, javelin throw and rugby because in rugby you cant send people into the ground, in archery you feel the force of shooting something with a lethal weapon, the same for javelin throw and golf because i hit the ball collectors  ;D

and personally i hate
football, american football and softball because in footballers, i see the players crying by getting kicked, in american football they just run around in pads and dont feel the force of ahniliating someone in rugby and softball because it is just silly

so what are your views on sport?

I don't whatch sports (on TV), because I found it's the most boring thing to whatch. I aswell don't like American Sports even though I'm American, I found that seeing the skill needed to throw a football or dodge hit's doesn't take much skill and the money earned for that is rediculuos. I can see football palyers earning more money then engineers or doctors which is a throw off in my own perspective. I do whatch though, car racing Golf, pool, anything that is also extreme, snowbording, etc.

Have you just called Golf and Pool extreme sports?

Ofcourse not, I stated what I liked and some extreme sports, like snowboarding and sking, bungy jumping etc.

I like NASCAR because of fire and explosions.  They ought to make ordanance tests a sport.

I don't like all other.  Sports?  An easy way to run around in a small area for no reason, get into fights and sweat.  All things I don't like to do.  And watching them is even more inne!

PS: Seriously, who can watch a golf or tennis match?  It's mindnumbing.  And that whole bit about women grunting is bogus.  ::)

I don't watch any sports at all. I enjoy playing paintball, and the occasional target shooting and archery (especially with a crossbow). To me the shooting sports have nothing to do with lethal weaponry or violence, it's all about the satisfaction of making a little piece of lead (or arrow) hit something really far away.

Most hated sport? I know not all (American)football fans are the same, but I have known so many fans who are just so extreme in their "love for the game" that I actually dislike the sport now. I'm talking about the kind of people who don't own any clothing without a team logo on it and are unable to hold conversation on any other subject. And the worst part is the way they react when I tell them that I don't watch sports.

They ought to make ordanance tests a sport.

YES!  OH YES!  They soooo should.

Depends on what you mean by sports?  Play, or watch?

To play, I love bowling and football, and I enjoy playing golf (even tho I suck, last time I golfed I didnt even make it to the green on half the holes, my ball kept going WAY far to the right, but I had a great time) and tennis when I get the chance.

But for watching, I only like football and bowling.  I hate watching golf and tennis cause its boring and I dont really like watching racing like indy or nascar (cept for crashes) cause they just go round and round

No matter what the sport, I find the top level professional versions aren't nearly as fun or interesting as the competition which occurs one level down from the top.  For stick and ball sports, college and semi-pro are often better than pro.  I love watching our local hockey team (at $6 a ticket) but find the overpaid cry-babies in the NHL boring (and the last time I was at an NHL game it was in a catered luxury box).

But I'm really a motorsports fan.  Here too the action is so much better outside of the overly sanitized end of the pool.  F1 has become dull and lifeless.  But there's still something left in sports car racing.  This year's LeMans 24 was a bunch of fun.  And amature level racing is awsome.  A bunch of guys spending their life's savings and risking their necks for a $20 trophy?  It doesn't get better than that.

If you want to find good sport, go where everyone else isn't.  Professional level sport has become... boring.

Oh, least favorite sport?  I'd have to say football (or "soccer" as my countrymen call it).  I was in a bar watching the England-Portugal match.  I just don't get it.  Yes, there's strategy.  Yes, there's passion (boat loads of it).  But I saw one team basically dominating the other (England spent way more time on the offensive than on the defensive) with a 0-0 score for 90 minutes, only to later find out that the dominant team lost.  Where's the fun in that?  There's something fundamentally wrong when the obviously best team is tied with the other team for 90 minutes, and something even worse when they loose.  Maybe I just don't understand the sport.  Why don't they just flip a coin and call it a day?

Oh, wait.  That's American Football...

Love - Football (the real, English version)

Hate- Cricket and Golf

I have an inherent dislike of anything starting with the letter "S", and and ending with the word "port".

My radio set is fitted with and electronic sound detector which automatically mutes the sound upon detecting the word "sport".

Most "Sport" involves an energy which would be put to better use elsewhere......!

I don't think the residents of Southport or Stockport would be too pleased about that!

The half where the lower you go, the nicer it gets.
