What's your favorite team sport?

Poll - Total Votes: 15
Baseball:because a pennant race is a rich tapestry, and in the playoffs every pitch matters
NBA Basketball: because it's the best athletes in the world's most competitive league
Hockey: because of the incredible skill level & the Stanley Cup playoffs are unmatched in intensity
College Basketball: because March Madness is the best sports event on earth, hands down
College Football: because the running game still matters and Saturdays on campus are awesome
NFL: because I am a mouth breathing fantasy FB freak with the attention span of a gnat.

This is mostly for the Americans and Canadians here and taking a cue from a certain former SWer's incredibly biased polls, I'm here to ask: What team sport do you like?:

Only one - you bastard.

I took the college hoops only because I can watch any basketball game and enjoy it - save for NBA. I prob watch some of maybe 150 baseball games each year. But only the Twins.

@hlpflwthat College hoops is the best.

@luckranger71 I can still walk into a gym and watch the 10 yo girls for that matter. It's just always entertaining and moves - gotta give it that. And props for the baseball description.

@hlpflwthat Thanks. I really enjoy every sport on the list except the NFL. It's become a video game.

@luckranger71 The genius of football is the unbelievable sanity in sticking to the dedicated days ... Fri - HS, Sat - college, Sun - NFL. Even thought the games are (too)long(still), there's far less total time commitment overall to staying 'current.' Only once/week and only so many games.

But I think science & health will be the end of football. We'll see.

@hlpflwthat : that's the reason I like college hoops. Two hours and done. I don't really consider the NFL football anymore. The rules are so skewed to the passing game. College is so much better to watch: especially in person.

I am enjoying fall Sundays so much more without wasting six hours in front of the TV. 😎

@luckranger71 Campus football is way more fun. They nearly killed it here moving the U into the Metrodome. Nice to be back on campus and outdoors - on grass.

@hlpflwthat : Agreed. Good move for the Gophers. But... go Badgers!!
