Are there any furs out there who like sports? The specific sport doesn't matter, I am just wondering. Also, what do you like about your favourite sport?

My favourite is probably football but I also enjoy watching racing, tennis and rugby, as well as other major events too.

I'll go and watch a game of Rugby now and again - much prefer the local/club scene (where on a cold winter day the number of spectators is often rather less than the number of players!) to any of the international-stuff though.

Also, odd motor-sports like hillclimbs & Sprints - my local venues being Prescott and Gurston Down. The big commercialised motorsports like F1 and the World Rally Championship don't appeal to me at all though; they're just made-for-TV 'spectacles' and who wins depends on who can spend the most money.

I used to love the popular forms of motorsport until they became over-commercialised.

Shep asks: I wonder if a Volvo would make a good hillclimb car?

Do you mean watching sports, or performing/exercising/... yourself?

I only really whatch the big one off events like the football/rugby world cup and Olympics.

I used to whatch F1, untill it became apprent that only two teams where any good, and the excitement became on par with whatching paint dry.

and sometimes, just sometimes I might whatch some rugby or boxing if it's on.

Major event to look forward to is England winning the World Cup this July. I've not watched nor played any sport for a long time. Used to play basketball and a bit of football. Missed the days when I can walk casually and throw a 3-pointer.

Baseball is my first love, followed by ice hockey and gridiron football. I also like basketball, soccer, horse racing, and amateur wrestling.

I like to watch football, F1, or to be honest anything. I'll watch a kickabout on a park.

From memory there was a 242 Turbo being used in the "road-legal" hillclimb class some years back. It was competing against things like Sierra Cosworths and so had a bit of a problem.

This shep cycles ~100 miles a week, plays squash, plus baseball sometimes (+climbing/gym/hillwalking but those aren't sports).

On tellie I like watching AFL, cycling, cricket, occasionally tennis. When the Olympics are on I watch most anything Australians are competing in.

I would like to learn more about football .. will probably watch a bit of the world cup to try learn why people find it so appealing!

Yus - and it's rugby, cricket and F1 for me, but I'm also partial to snooker, darts and most motorsports ;)

I'm afraid I actually don't like ANY, despite giving them all a go, my dad taking me to the occasional footy match etc...

As I've got older I've got more interested in sports. I like watching football, rugby union, snooker (I went to the World Championship at the Crucible a few years ago), most motorsport (especially MotoGP). When I was a kid I used to score for a local cricket team so I've watched a lot of that.

In fact the only sports I don't like are tennis and golf.

I don't really play any. I enjoy badminton but I'm horribly competitive which takes out all the fun of playing sports for me.

I like cricket because I enjoy being able to just sit back and chill out for hours. And also American gridiron football because it's just interesting and fun to watch.

Yep! I'll pretty much give any sport a watch, well maybe not syncronised swimming ;p

Oh yeah, and I play rugby league too ^^

My fave sport is snooker, though i also like playing darts, table tennis, football and pool.

I think i like the skill and tactics you need to play the game well and the fact that even if you're not doing one part of the game well, you can still be a challenge to your opponent with another style of play.

I'm not a huge fan of watching sports, but when I do watch it's usually baseball (go Giants!), or really good soccer matches (like the World Cup, of course). For participating, I like rock climbing and SCUBA diving, if you can call those sports. Oh, and cycling provides some good eye candy too (love the gear), though otherwise it's not much fun to watch... ;)
