Sport The Offseason - What other sports do you watch?

[Vdubs]

EPL is my football in the summer as I follow Everton very closely on a week-to-week basis and love watching them play as much as the Cats.
I try to keep up with the NFL every week following the Cardinals (like you Adam456), but I don't have high hopes for this season with our new coach and quaterback and being thrashed last week by the Saints.

No cricket for me as I lost interest years ago.

Did you pick your teams based on their success?

I loosely follow the Patriots, since 2008, paradoxically because they lost their final after going through the WHOLE season undefeated. Made the Geelong GF loss slightly less traumatic.
Before that, v little interest.

Pretty sure that was feb 2008.. Before we lost the GF
NY GIANTS! Big blue

Aus Open!

 

[OldStyle2007]

I have tivo, setup for a season NFL pass and check it every few days
I hope this season I get to see more of the Saints and packers (I'm a Saints fan).
I saw way too much of San Fran last season....

It's great isn't it?!

Some good matches coming up Monday morning. Broncos v Eagles and Patriots v Falcons. All great quarterbacks (Peyton Manning, Michael Vick, Tom Brady and Matt Ryan)

 

[Big Tom 2013]

Cricket for me, although not quite as enthused as I once was about the Australian team

 

[darren forssman]

NFL ftw. 4 free games per week on 1HD

cannot believe murdoch jnr dumped the nba from onehd but has kept nfl and baseball.

It is odd, considering the way they deliberately trashed 1HD, isn't it. NBA is probably more of a ratings puller than NBA or NFL tho

i think he was trying to funnel nba viewers to foxtel..though i did read somewhere that australia has the highest league pass subscription take up outside the states.

Sport ceases to exist in my world. SEN disappears from the dial entirely and Sunday sports shows are to be avoided like the plague.

This is Sicko's Summer Sportsworld

I followed to Cardinals when Benny was playing for them, much more of a Giants fan, does not look good for us either

G Men in a world of hurt right now..

The other brother on the other hand...

GO Broncos!

 

[Partridge]

Don't really follow many sports much anymore. A little cricket, but nothing like I used to.

Besides, with buying a house at the moment (to move in by late November), then a work trip to Spain, then Christmas, plus Uni, plus work, plus a 2-year-old daughter, not a huge amount of time free anyway.

Hate tennis with a passion. I hope the cricket delivers but whilst we have soft-utensils like Clark and Watson in the team I can't see that happening. Just watch Ambrose take 7 for 1 on the youtubes. God I miss those days

you had me ready with the pitchforks on the tennis but lost me with the cricket.

 

[manboob]

I'll make you a deal; you come pitchforking with me at the tenanus and I'll buy you a beer and take your pitchfork while I watch the cricket.

 

[darren forssman]

still only got me on the first, not even a free beer would get me to the cricket.

 

[Strangled Cat]

For the Ford fans out there, it was great to FPR finally bring Bathurst home.

Watch a bit of NBA, due to being involved in fantasy sport with a group of mates. Have been playing the same NBA fantasy league with
these guys for about 12 years. We have a lottery draft and everything. Often turns into a mess, especially when the timer comes out on the
picks along with the vodka.....

Just watching the golf right now and it is so good to see jarrod Lyle in his first tournament back from leukemia looks like he is just out there to have fun.
Quite inspiring
Good luck to him

After not bothering with the cricket since Border last waved the Gray Nicholls, I must admit the last hour of play has nearly brought a tear to the eye - Hooksy-esque batting in the last over before declaration, followed by a first-ball wicket that had a touch of D.K. Lillee about it. Incredible stuff.

2007, 2009, and 2011 Grand Finals. Repeatedly.
Plus the 2009 NAB Cup GF and the 2 Hours DVD.

And a little bit of MMA and Test (REAL.TM) Cricket.
