I gotta be one of the rare people who has never watched a single football game.

Soccer, tennis, basketball....those are my sports. :)

I'll watch any of those (I love college basketball) along with football, baseball, hockey...

If you can keep score and compile statistics for it, I consider it a sport...therefore I'll watch people compete at almost anything. I've watched people combine juggling with dodgeball on tv.

How about chess?
Maybe be boring to watch, but everybody should see the movie " Pawn Sacrifice" with Tobey McGuire, a movie about the chess legend Bobby Fisher.
Brilliant movie, it`s about chess yet I had the feeling of watching a superb mystery thriller.

I could watch chess. I'd rather play it (although I'm not that good), but I could watch it. Add in some rules to make it full contact, some fire, maybe some scantily clad cheerleaders and I think you'd have ratings gold! ;;D

So, I do I really need to ask? You are pulling for your Razorbacks, right? Do you ever root for the Tide?
The only time I root AGAINST the Tide is when they're playing the Razorbacks. 'Bama has always been my surrogate red/white team because my Razorbacks, for the most part, have sucked since they came to the SEC in 1991. Not a real popular team to back around here and I did receive a few death threats from my former co-workers at the police department but I admire Nick Saban just for the system he's put in place and consistently remains a contender year after year...whereas the Razorbacks....oh boy......just horrible this year so far...lol

And your Dolphins went down to the wire with the Falcons, I believe. I started watching that game, but turned it off a bit once the Falcons were 17-0. The only other game on was the Saints-Lions one. Saints almost blew a 35 point lead in that one.


The Dolphins game was shocking. If you take away the garbage touchdown they scored on the last play of the game against the Jets, they had scored 1 touchdown in their last 3 games. So to come back from 17 down on the road against Atlanta seemed unlikely.

The 20 they put up against Atlanta is their highest scoring game of the year.
