Default Your favorite and least favorite....

Professional organized sports! If you had to pick your two favorite non-martial, yet major sports, and your two least favorite what would they be??? And why?

My two favorite are: Soccer and Hockey

Soccer because there is a lot of drama, and Hockey because there are horrible beatings and fights which are just as fun to watch as the UFC. Lots of action, and international players.

My least favorite: basketball and Football

Basketball because the NBA stars piss me off, and Football for the same reason, and because there is too little action in my opinion.

What's up Arieson.

My favorite non-martial sports are baseball and football. Sadly, I don't keep up with what's happening in either sport for the past 5-10 years, but will gladly catch a game if given the chance.

Why do I like them? Well I grew up playing baseball; not only on the street but in different local leagues. I loved watching baseball as a kid too - strictly for the sports action, but now as an adult I go to baseball games as more of a social outing. Don't get me wrong, I still love the action but assembling for the game means so much more.

Football (more so college) - Love it! I love trying to predict the plays, watching my favote team get out there and beat the crap out of the other team and last but not least, the atmosphere. People coming together to root for a common team.

Middle of the road sports - Triathalons, Strongman Competitions and Gymnastics. Triathalons are great, love to jump in and go for it; toughman competitions - more as a spectator since I'm not 6'5" and 300 lbs, but nothing is more fun than chugging a few beers with close friends and watching big dudes with no necks throw telephone poles over high fences and pull fire engines.

Gymnastics, because of the strength, coordination and timing involved to make the events work, especially the horse? and uneven bars. You hope the gymnast isn't going to wreck themselves switching from bar to bar, they get so close and pull off some great stunts.

Surfing too.

Least favorite?

Soccer - yeah, i'd watch it but I'm not really a fan. I'm becoming more of a rugby fan as of lately.

Auto Racing - never really got into it.

i love watching womens gymnastics. i love to watch womens gymnastics during the summer games especially. there is really nothing more stimulating than watching petite, athletic women from every country in the world gathering under one roof, and proceeding to contort their tight little bodies in ways i never even imagined impossible! not only that, but they are all made to wear one-piece bathing suits so we can see their toned muscles flex with every movement even better. man, they straddle poles, put their ankles behind their ears, do the splitz......my god, it just doesnt end. watching womens gymnastics during the summer games also really lets you appreciate the diversity among humans, i myself give thanks to noah for making sure to collect two women of each race for his boat, otherwise we may have not had beauty in so many different flavors.


oh man....

I bought my boyfriend baseball tickets for his birthday. I guess that means I have to go watch with him, and I have no one to blame but myself. -cry-

I like watching Olylifting and basketball.

favorite sport... Skiing? Ice skating? Hmmm They display a high level of skill in a non team sort of "major" sport that's not martial... Least favorite? Team sports and Nascar... I detest big time wrestling.

I like to watch football when it's my college team. Otherwise I don't watch too much football :-/. A good second would be volleyball. Back at home I lived about 5 minutes from the beach and I'd go there and play volleyball there all the time. Women's Doubles Beach Volleyball is definitely easy on the eyes .

I think that Emptyness posted somewhat honestly and since he's been DickHardman, most of his posts have been designed to provoke. He's trolling in the best sense.

I think he may believe in UFO's but his repeated sensationalist posts on the subject are mostly designed to draw people out.

Same with the Pot references - He's baiting folks. Pretty effectively, I might add.

Obviously, he's baiting Matbla - however, his fake threads for Matt aren't really much different than his pot / UFO threads for others. Look them over from that point of view and I think you'll see my point. Every time you call him a pot head or a UFA\o junkie, you're biting on the troll. Ha Ha, the joke's on you.

thats not true either.

in fact, most of the stuff i say is so close to the truth, that sometimes when i look over my own posts, i really, truly wish that it was all made up, and just a joke. thats the real kicker craig.

It's not true that you post joke threads to draw MB out, or it's not true that you introduce outrageous pot / UFO stuff into other peoples threads to draw Jubaji out?

Least favorite sport without a doubt is futbol (soccer) and favorite non combat sport is nothing, all my favorite sports are combat sports/arts.
