Favourite sport?

(Ice) Hockey
Canadian Football
Baseball
Rugby League
(Used to play the union game and loved it but can't watch it for some reason).

Will watch pretty much anything. I'm addicted to the Olympics and am seriously considerng taking the two weeks off...

Its easier for me to list the sports I've no real interest in; Gaelic Games, any form of motorsport.

The sports that are behind football in interest levels are tennis, american football, cycling, athletics and boxing

I've done some thinking about this thread and realised that I only like sports in which the winner is decided based on points scored (football, rugby, boxing, cricket), rather than being the first to reach a certain distance (cycling, motorsports), or the being the person who did something most stylishly (skating, synchronised swimming).

That said, I don't like ALL sports that fit into the first category, by any means. I just can't think of any sports I'm interested in from either of the other 2 categories.

Is darts a sport?

Boxing fits into the first and third categories though (at least at professional level). Its the only sport I like that a person is judged. Sports that are judged too open to curruption

Actually, that is a good point about boxing, especially as the judgment is quite often a controversial one.

I guess I just like seeing people being punched in the head!
