How would you rank the 5 major team sports in order of your fandom or general interests in them? Not meant to be a which one is "better" pissing match. Just wondering what people's personal preferences are. For the sake of this topic only talking about pro sports. For me...

1. Football - grew up in South LA, pretty easy one.
2. Soccer - no favorite club team but I love the college football type atmosphere and the constant flow of the game (and lack of 100 commercials during it)
3. Basketball - slight edge over baseball just because of the Pels
4. Baseball - just don't have a particular rooting interest.
5. Hockey - nothing against it just never watched much of it.

If we're truly talking pro only, then

1a) Football
1b) Soccer
3) Baseball
4) Basketball
5) Hockey (no interest)

If college is included then football goes to clear #1

1a) Football- from the South

1b) Soccer- might be #1 if I could attend high profile matches regularly. The fact it basically never ends has been a major bonus and more than fills the void between football seasons.

3) Basketball- enjoy playoffs/March Madness but can't get into regular season

4a) Baseball- so boring but I followed it as a kid

4b) Hockey- boring and I never cared about it except for NHL 94 on Sega

If we are talking only about pro then soccer #1 football #2

1. Football - Duh
2. Basketball - Gets a bad rap, super exciting game
3. Hockey - Don't know shite about it but it's fun to watch
4. Soccer - Only because I pretend to get super pumped every 4 years for the World Cup
5. Baseball - Whatever, up there with cricket for me

1) Football - only on the college level. IDGAF about the NFL.
2) Baseball - only on the MLB level. IDGAF about LSU.
3) Basketball - more so the college level, but I like NBA too.
4) Hockey - mainly for the playoffs
5) Soccer - try to follow Man City in the Premier League. Not a huge fan, though.

Soccer - Mainly just world cup
Hockey - Used to love Hockey and would watch the Dallas Stars religiously, but for years and year I don't catch games. Just fell off. If Louisiana had a pro team it would be just behind NFL/NBA



Baseball - I enjoy it in person somewhat, but I feel it's a chore to watch on television. I have no team to cheer for. If I had to choose teams it would be the Astros or Cubs.
