VOTE for your top 4 favorite sports... If they were all on television at the same time which 4 sports events would you most likely watch?

It depends on what you consider a sport....and if you are watching or participating....

My Darling PonyGirl,
You are, of course, referring to... the beautiful Sport of Amour. Oui?

for my other category it's tourney poker, but without hole cards. merson's win in the main was some good tv, was clearly best and couldn't help but root for him. jacobson's win was a clinic in rungood coupled w perfect execution of tournament strategy. started the table 8/9 and won it all.
suppose the rub for non players who prefer the highlight shows is there's tanking for almost every decision. nobody needs 30 seconds to fold 83 off suit prefolp with a raise and reraise before him. these dudes use it. silly. solution, put it on a delay & edit out the stalling.

The casinos here ..Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun.....host a lot of those tournaments...... If any of you get up this way I would surely try to come meet you..... Be nice to put more faces to the names.....

Softball so much more entertaining than baseball IMO.

Watched my daughter play from that age all the way to the NAIA World Series. The formative years produce some fantastic players down the line. Softball at the high levels is impressive to watch.

Elk, that’s awesome. I will give you a shoutout to see how it went. One of these years, I am taking that trip. I hope you all have a great time.
BTW, the softball World Series has been great, as usual, so far this year.
Why do I have to keep signing in every time I want to comment? It’s a PITA.

Rodeo and tennis are tied with 1 vote? Shameful! Rodeo is up there with curling for me but tennis? Roger Federer is one of the best athletes ever! I would argue that with boxing tennis players are some of the fittest athletes of any sport! Ok, bull riders are tough SOB's for sure. AND CRAZY! on the other hand, bull riders seem to attract that most beautiful chicks.
