personally i don't preffer the namby pamby pussieness of american sports icons.

I will watch hockey or car racing if anything.

soccers not bad if i'm blitzed, and i never am.

Golf would be good if it was done with guns that had barrels the size of the *****.

Some shooting sports or okay, but only when competeing yourself they are boring as all fvck-get-out to watch.

volleyball! i played all through out highschool (state champs 2005 bitches) and still play indoor and beach in the summer. If you like volleyball, make a trip out to see a AVP beach tournament if it comes by you, they are amazing to watch!

EDIT: idk where volleyball originated...

Nothing beats Rugby for sheer passion, physical confrontation, toughness, skill, and overall fitness and conditioning IMHO.

I do like the NFL though. A little tame but still a damn good game.

The only thing is that nobody watches sports leagues. They watch sports matches. And soccer matches are criminally boring. I wouldn't be surprised if some study turned up results indicating that 100% of narcoleptics are friends of soccer fans. Basically, soccer causes normal people to fall asleep.

I watch hockey, play hockey, and watch football (American)

Baseball is nearly as mind-numbing as soccer is, though.

Oh, that's nothing! If you want to see a survey with some microscopic numbers - check out the one regarding the percentage of Americans that care what Brits think of American sports. [8D]
