Sports Fans?!
 
We're hardly taking advantage of the Off Topic forum, and that's a crime! I'm a member of a couple other forums that would love to have an off topic section.

So what's everyone's favorite sport/team?

I'm a big basketball fan. I love the Suns and of course the Pistons. Also, this is Hockeytown, so I love the Red Wings, too.

Baseball is my sprot of choice and the St. Louis Cardinals are my team

We also have the Springfield Cardinals here which is the double a team of the St. Louis Cardinals

I like to watch basketball but mostly college

Wings/Avs had one hell of a rivalry a few years ago.

That would be pretty sweet to watch live karate! Since you're from UK I was going to ask you if you watch F1. I love open-wheel racing but for reasons I'll never understand, NASCAR is huge in the states.

Is F1 racing different than Indy Car racing?

I don't mind nascar, but I prefer to watch the road races vs. the oval tracks

F1 and Indy are very similar. There's a few differences with the cars. And F1 tours the world, the races start from a standstill, they race in the rain, stuff like that.
I've never been into NASCAR because the cars are slow (compared to open wheel cars), too bulky and they can't turn worth a damn. Plus I don't consider plowing into people for position to be "strategy". I suppose everybody likes a good crash if nobody gets hurt, but if I wanted to watch cars banging into each other, I'd watch a demolition derby!

mr.ranger 08-09-2009 02:14 PM

good points, those demolition derbys sure are fun
i'd love to enter one

STL 08-09-2009 02:27 PM

Okay I have seen a F1 race then. It was going then started raining and they came in and changed to a tread tire.

I like the starts at a dead stop.

mr.ranger 08-25-2009 04:29 PM

yeah, i also prefer F1 racing to nascar but what about monster trucks and there competitions!!!!!
