Whatchyer poison? Pitting the 2 professional sports against each other, which would you choose as TV viewing? If you were limited to only 1?

A friend of mine, many years ago, decribed basketball as........2pts for team A.......2pts for team B.......and contining in that boring fashion.

Personally I enjoy the fast paced action on the ice moreso than the "fastbreak".

Y tu?

I never really understood NHL. It doesn't do me anything.. It makes me dizzy if anything.  

If it's Mike Tirico, I'll just watch reruns of "The Big Bang Theory."

1.NFL/NCAA
2.PGA Golf
3.MLB
4.Boxing
5.NBA/ncaa
6.NHL
7.Tennis
8.Olympic

Tom Dwan is the best poker player I've ever seen.

as a spectator sport...My swing sucks though...

I really can't watch NHL although I bet on it.

Football, both NCAA and NFL have to be at the top of my list, I can even watch football without betting on it, most sports bore the crap out of me if I don't have any action on the game.

BTW What place are your Nats in right now?

Go Braves!!!


Sorry Curly, I am going to enjoy this while it lasts, I am not too terribly confident that I will still be laughing come September, but I am going to yuck it up as long as I can, because I know payback is a bitch

might as well start enjoying the golf tournaments.  

conversely, I can watch and enjoy a basketball game. I much prefer the NCAA variety but I can watch either, but I don't really like to bet on it mainly because I rarely make money.

Gambling is mainly entertainment for me, but it's a lot more entertaining to win than to lose. What I really hate about betting on round ball is the "garbage time" at the end of many games, it plays havoc with both point spreads and over/under bets, too many games come down to a meaningless shot at the buzzer, or one simply not taken as the outcome of the game is no longer in doubt, but not the outcome of the bet. I know it happens in other sports as well, such as running out the clock in football, but it doesn't seem to cost me as much money in those other sports.

I can't remember what the under was but I had a under total earlier this year with Miami and the Spurs, the Spurs are down 20something points with 30s, at this point I have the under by 3 points.. now instead of running the 30s out with the game already over both of those fuckers score twice to screw me lol.

you are coming out guns blazing lol, but until that time comes you aren't going to like us very much lol

I can't watch golf, boxing, baseball, sailing lol

I can watch tennis(you're welcome rob)if Caroline Wozniaki, Maria Kirilenko or Maria Sharapova is playing.

Hello from Pittsburgh btw. The pens need to break out of this "superstar scoring slump" already. They'll never make the finals relying on their good looks alone lol

uh.....your Kings are in a heap o mierda there Zack. Well, not YOUR Kings but your closest team. Or are they?
Cya on the ice for a hopeful Rangers/Penguins 2nd round

Do you ever fantasize about just taking all the stacks off the table and haul assing out the casino.. well if you get pass the guards lol  

You think the sports books would let his happen

Thank you Boston Bruins. I had the Bruins -1 1/2 over 5 this afternoon, with waaaay less than a minute left and the score 3-2 they hit an empty netter to win 4-2. That's what I love about the NHL.

1.Boxing ,            From the first round to end, I enjoy great boxing  again and again .  

I love it when a good plan comes together!

I have the same bet on the Rangers today. Can lightning strike twice? I would settle for even a win/push at 4-1, but 3-1 and time counting down, I need some help.

4-2 final. I got a small bet on the blues today send some of that luck my way lol

You just never know until those last few seconds in hockey.

I will be sure to root for the Blues today, especially since I would have taken the BlackHawks at home today, but I didn't like the chances of them coving the puck line, and I really don't like to bet the money line, so I simply passed on the game and bet baseball instead.

I hate to skip a game only to be right about it, I would rather be wrong and feel like I saved money, so Go Blues. lol

Sorry Curly, that had to hurt today.

Four of our star players are hurt.. And 5th got hurt today. We are playing off the bench and AAA

was removed from the game only after 4 innings and 60some pitches due to flu like symptoms...

Hands down, hockey is the best sport live.  Non stop action.  TV does not do it justice.  I still enjoy it on TV, but not nearly as much as in person.  NBA is full of prima donna's.  League has gotten too diluted.

Basketball is boring in comparison.  Hockey players are some of the fittest, toughest and most skilled athletes in any sport and the fast paced action of the game is unmatched.  And when the quest for the Cup rolls around every season the play gets ratcheted up even more.

Saints football, rugby or sailing.  If those aren't available might as well spend the afternoon cutting the grass
