ZandraJoi Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Do you go all out with a big party, inviting all your friends over? My husband is the sports person here. He just prefers to watch it at home. There’s been a few times years ago he’s gone to a friend’s house but there’s nothing like having control of that remote lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I sit down in the front room and turn to the hockey channels. I haven't gone to a game in years, and it's been even longer since I've watched one at a sports bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lämmchen Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 We aren't really sports people but there are times when we do like to sit down and watch a big championship or tournament. When the Chicago Bulls had Michael Jordan on the team (his early days and then his return after retirement), we would watch almost every game we could! That was really exciting for us and we had some friends over at times to hang out and watch. Other than basketball, I like watching women's gymnastics and that's because my daughter was really good at gymnastics. If we had the money back then I would have had her in competitions, but it's way too expensive to get into that scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) I watch Formula 1... and that's about it. I refuse to watch my nation's favourite sport. That being Football, aka soccer. That is football. No question. I don't support football in Scotland because there's too mush bigotry. However, I need to make clear the kind of football we support, as a nation, is the version where people actually use thier feet to control the ball. Unlike the American version where people use thier arms to move around an egg, we play REAL rugby. A sport where players don't wimp out by having the players wear 40lbs of protective gear, all form a nation that takes more pride in virility than anything else.

The Blackangel Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) The thing that hockey and soccer fans have in common is that we will and do attack each other at just about every game. Fans are either far too passionate, or far too much of a candy ass to admit defeat. Especially during the cup, both World and Stanley. I don’t like when the Red Wings lose, but I not going to push someone in front of a car. Which is something that actually happened a few years ago at a game. I don’t remember what two teams it was between, but a fan of the team that lost was so pissed off, that he shoved a fan of the team that won in front of an oncoming car. No one died, but he was facing attempted murder the last I knew. Edited July 10, 2021 by The Blackangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Football, Formula one(occasionally), and Track & Field (Major events) are the sports I like to watch especially when there is a major event being held like the Olympics or the Euros.

Sharon Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I don't get to watch it very often, but I absolutely love watching rugby! I see the sport as a combination of American Football and soccer without any equipment. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I love watching F1 (Formula 1) sports events, I love watching as Roger Federer conquer his competitors in an F1 event. That's why I love playing F1 video game and any kind of racing. Soccer is my second favourite sports event too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I know for a fact that there's no driver named Roger Federer in F1, mostly because Rodger Federer is a tennis player. So one of us is very confused, and I'm honestly not sure which one...

If I'm not mistaken, I think Roger Federer also likes to watch F1 so that's probably what confused him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Football. It's just so simple, and yet so compelling. And it's the only global sport; you can watch a game in England or Spain or Kazakhstan or Peru, and it's the same game with the same emotions.

Jayson Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 What is good watching and what is good playing is way different. For instance, I can't stand baseball to watch, but love to play it. Anyway, American Football is the most exciting for me to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch the FIFA world cup and it's electrifying to watch. I love when a goal is scored in European countries and they yell gooooolllll. 🙂 I actively watch NBA basketball. I always watch the warriors games. Hornets and Bulls if I can but they are never available to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
