Title: Other sports
Post by: Doore on Sunday, June 7, 2009, 20:34:32
Leaving football aside for a moment - I'd be quite interested to discover people's favourite other sports.  I'm a big tennis and cricket fan.  I play a bit of badminton and love snooker.

Oddly, I've never been able to enjoy Rugby.  I just don't get the game at all.

I like most sports but my favourite is 9 ball pool.

I went to the Mosconi Cup last year and had a bloody brilliant time on the Cisk.

Rugby Union and cricket, although I can't say I follow a club side in either.

Also enjoy pool and boxing.

Snooker would be the big one for me. I think there's something about it being a fairly enclosed tight game rule-wise that makes the moments of brilliance that much more special.

I like watching most sports, especially motorised ones, but dislike tennis.  Never liked rugby league, but since my daughter moved to Yorkshire and married a Bulls supporter, I am gradually coming round to watching it on telly.

For all the motorcyle enthusiasts, I'd like to remind you that it is the Isle of Man TT this week and daily highlights can be found on ITV4.

I'm a big Ice Hockey fan, it's the only other sport I watch as much as I watch football. I've quite enjoyed the Rugby League on recently as well but I'm not a big follower.

Tae Kwon Do / martial arts. Because it's about the only thing that I have ever been much good at.

Not done anything for ages now though and a wet paper bag could present a challenge.

Predominantly the 2 different methods of chasing an egg, and any of the major touring car series. Rugby League seems to be my 'summer sport' these days.

I'll watch/play anything though (within reason).

I watch both forms of rugby, cricket, and seomtimes tennis if I've nothing better to do! As for playing, the only sport I really play now is cricket, although badminton and (dare I say it?) volleyball are also pretty good fun


Title: Re: Other sports
Post by: Leggett on Monday, June 8, 2009, 12:37:55
ice hockey (nhl and swindon wildcats), gridiron, most motorsports (especially the british touring cars)
