Wow, Micky. Now I will have to track down that Micky vs. Ghost Rider post and give you a vote. Ghost Rider had the edge because she likes Rush, but if you are a fan of my beloved Tigers then I might just have to give you the vote.
Tigers 16 New York Yankees 0. What an awesome game to be in attendance at!!!! |
BOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooo
I do take some reprise in the fact the Yanks are at beating the Tigers in the Wild Card.

was just watching Liverpool - Toulouse. And last night I stayed up from 3:50am to 6:50 am just to see the womens hammer throw qualifying at Osakas WM. I basically watch every sport except for motor sport, from which I only follow formula 1. Oh, and I used to play ice hockey and football at one point in my life. Still like doing them. And I do beach wolley during summers. Only sport I hate playing is basketball.

I am a huge sports fan. I love football (Sheffield United), rugby (went to Heineken cup final last year), athletics, tennis etc. I also love watching the American sports late night on channel 5, MLB, american football and NHL. I find the NBA kind of boring though.

Football (soccer) is the only one I follow actively, probably due to the fact that I used to play the game myself for ~ 9 years. Ice hockey and tennis are fun too, both playing & watching.

I am a sports enthusiast and many would say a member of "the art crowd"...I like music, film, lit, paintings etc. There are those who consider the 2 mutually exclusive, and from the opposite side, "art crowd" is one of the more polite terms used. Much the same way as there are those who equate "sports enthusiast" or "athlete" with "moron jock".
Who says anybody wanted to be in a crowd? Why make something negative of it? Try not to be offended.
Then again, why do I bother. There are some folks out there who might be dying of thirst who would accuse you of trying to drown them when you bring them a glass of water.

I hate sports! Okay fine...I don't actually hate them, but I sure don't follow them. I could care less about football, tennis, soccer, or whatever and yes, i'm part of the 'artistic' crowd, that 'crowd' consisting of me by myself.

I enjoy an energetic game of chess or backgammon and have been known to turn scrabble into a contact sport, but other than that, absolutely none...
...unless you count watching cricket or formula one at the pub...

None, personally -- I couldn't care less.  The closest I come to being a "sports" fan is my love of motorcycles, and dirt-biking in particular.  Also, to quote peter gabriel: I go Swimming.

I follow football (both college and pro) pretty closely, too. I enjoy college especially because it doesn't matter whose playing...I simply enjoy the big plays and the chaotic atmosphere. If I'm really lucky, the elements will come into play and really make things interesting. E
