    Hockey - Canucks
    Football - Followed the Seahawks during the Krieg/Largent era. Always amazed how he was so effective when he wasn't overly blessed with speed or size. :)
    Nascar - don't really follow. Followed indy for while because of Greg Moore.
    Baseball - Mariners

    Until you have been at the wheel doing a 180 mph or slinging mud in a off-road race, both of which I have, I respectfully suggest that you don't know what the hell you're talking about. The physical and mental demands are pratically beyond compare!

    Not trying to pick a fight here, but car racing is not a sport. I am in no way saying that it is easy or unchallenging. Being in the army is not being an athlete. Being an astronaut does not make you an athlete. Playing chess (which actually is physically demanding) at the elite level is not a sport.
    I am very sure its very challenging; challenging of your whole system, but that does not make it a sport.

    Nascar is a sport, they Compete against another, they have an objective to win - they all put their lives on the line. They have rules, and fans go to their races. Correct me if im wrong - but that clearly is a sport.

    Baseball - Boston

    Basketball - Boston
    Football - New England

    Although, I given the current crop of 'pro' athletes today, I wouldn't walk accross the street to see any of them, all a bunch of overpaid punks, thugs and criminals. If I watch sports on TV, it's Golf. My faves there are: Phil Mickelson, Fred Couples and Ernie Els.

    You like Phil "I need a man bra" Mickelson?:)

    I play fantasy golf and he has been renamed to Mill Phuckelson for his crappy play as of late.

    I agree with you 100% on the state of the pro athlete Troy. When I was younger I was more interested in pro sports. I think thats why I'm more interested in Nascar now is because the drivers don't come across as jerks plus they don't strike in auto racing. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever say that about Nascar. My three brothers used to make fun of my dad for watching it when we were kids now we all like it. Auto racing is definitely a sport.

    Motorsports: Ford, that's my favorite team. They race in everything. In F1 though, the ONLY American Driving: Eddie Irvine. If he is still driving. I haven't watched yet this year.

    Baseball: Hardcore Phillies fan until I die!
    Hockey: The Devils only because I like to piss off the Flyers fans.
    Football: Cowboys 'cause the Eagles Suck!

    I don't watch basketball but when I do watch teh college games, I root for my alma mater, Drexel. They aren't doing so hot this year.

    That's about it.

    Eddie Irvine isn't American, he's Scottish and he's out of a F1 drive for good. At present, there are no American drivers in F1, but Redbull set up a program to bring at least one US driver to F1. It will probably be a couple of years before we see that happen.
