Did your favorite sport change over time?

I used to love watching football. All day Saturdays and Sundays. Now, my favorite sport is MMA.
I find MMA is more satisfying. You select one or tow good events per month. Spend 3 hours to watch it. Two guys slug it out. It's done. Little referee involvement, less pause in the action. I fee like football refs have too much impact on the outcome. Too many commercials, reviews, timeouts, halftime, same boring arse "story lines".

Care way less about football at all levels than I used to

Used to love basketball. It became unwatchable in the ‘90s coinciding with my teams become irrelevant. I haven’t been able to fully embrace it since.
I used to be a true MLB fan watching as much baseball as possible. Now, if my team isn’t involved, I don’t care.
On the other hand, I can’t get enough of college football.

College football is my favorite sport. I like it so much more than NFL, and man I hope they quit killing it with targeting calls.

Use to be MLB, no longer watch it.
Use to like the NBA, dont watch that one either.
NFL went from 2 to 1 and college football went from 3 to 2.

Still enjoy watching LSU football but these days it's LSU baseball.

I'm down because I had kids and also figured out what a monumental time sink sports ont he weekend are. Lots of things to do when the weather is nice.

Baseball and basketball were my favorites growing up and especially around Jordan’s Bulls run and HR race era in the 90s to early 2000s. It shifted to football as I got older and especially once LSU and the Saints became contenders. Still like MLB and NBA playoffs though.
College football has been my favorite since college. Always look forward to fall Saturdays more than any other time.
Also gained interest in events that have stuck, like March Madness. Golf is one that I had no interest in younger years and now don’t miss a major. In particular, the Masters.

I could name you very starting pitching rotation and lineup for every mlb team from the 90’s through 2006 maybe I’ve just gotten older or Baseball has really just done a bad job at marketing the star players because besides the Astros or braves I couldn’t name a pitching staff.

I enjoy football but my interest as a whole has decreased dramatically over the last 10-20 years.
But my favorite sport right now is baseball. I've always been a fan and watched but I have gotten into it the last 5 years. Best playoffs of all sports.
Dark horse is soccer. Having kids playing recreational soccer has gotten me watching more on TV. Even went to an MLS game in Utah which was unreal.

I was a huge football guy but over the last 5-6 years have shifted towards baseball. I probably watched/attended 140 Ranger games this last year.
I don’t watch nearly as much NCAAF as I used to and really only watch the Cowboys.

Big NBA, NFL, and MLB fan in the 80s as a kid. Realized just how badly rigged the NBA was in the 90's and quit watching it all together. Got tired of MLB in the late 90's. NFL is boring and hell and rigged, but I do play fantasy football. Have only watched a grand total of about 30 minutes of NFL this year.
CFB became my favorite sport, with NHL being a close second in the late 90's. CFB is now like the old NBA, so it is pretty much unwatchable. NHL rules for me now.

MLS is awesome because of the unpredictable nature of it all.
Pick an English premier league team and come join the fun. It’s the greatest league in the world and it’s action and drama packed every weekend

I been watching most of the Arsenal and Tottenham games.

Used to love NBA and could tell you everything about every team. Now I don't even watch them.
Partly b/c my team now sucks, but also because how the players think they are gods. Ironically, most of them aren't that good either, yet they are in the big leagues.

Tennis is now five hour Atari pong wars of attrition. Not sure that is for the better.

Gotta choose the dark side or the light in that regard
I’m biased but come on over to Tottenham, the waters just fine

Used to watch all 3 major U.S. sports religiously but I don’t watch baseball at all anymore. They’ve all been degraded but the the other 2 sports still have their essence present in them somewhat. Baseball has been so perverted it’s unrecognizable and unwatchable now.

You go see the rangers but you have a braves flair?

My interest definitely varies depending on how my specific teams are doing at the time but college football has been my favorite for a while now.
