Pro Sports Thread

<p>Does anyone here follow professional sports, e.g. NFL, NBA, NFL, etc.?</p>

<p>My favorite teams include:</p>

<p>NFL: Miami Dolphins
NBA: Phoenix Suns
NHL: Phoenix Coyotes
MLB: Arizona Diamondbacks!</p>

<p>Anyone else? Plus, we can let this thread be a nice little home for pro sports discussion in general.</p>

<p>MLB: Los Angeles Dodgers
NBA: Los Angeles Lakers
NFL: Indianapolis Colts
NHL: Don’t follow it, but it’s fun watching it from time to time.</p>

<p>The NBA and MLB is what I follow the most. Right now I am thoroughly frustrated at the Dodgers’ lack of passion and inability to take advantage of countless opportunities (such as taking first from the Dbacks this past weekend).</p>

<p>MLB: Chicago White Sox
NBA: Chicago Bulls
NFL: Denver Broncos
NHL: Chicago Blackhawks
Premier League: Manchester City</p>

<p>MLB and NFL are the two main pro sports I watch right now…College sports are better anyway.</p>

<p>From time to time.</p>

<p>NFL: Baltimore Ravens
NBA: LA Lakers
NHL: Anaheim Ducks
MLB: NY Yankees
Futbol: Seleccion Argentina (which I never get the chance to watch)</p>

<p>I’m not sure if La Seleccion is a pro team in US terms, but it’s the national soccer team.</p>

<p>Professional sports are ridiculous at a level. The athletes who do well make at least a million a year, and that is hundreds of Athletes in all the sports. However, the President of the U.S. does not even make that much in TWO years, and he is one of over 300 million citizens of the U.S. When a guy on a facny Football team makes more money that one of the most powerful men on Earth, I have a problem. Just my 2 cents.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>They’d be even more ridiculous if they weren’t entertaining.</p>

<p>What, and politics aren’t???!!!
/sarcasm</p>

<p>But, seriously, it is getting out of hand. Eli Manning is not more important than the President, no matter who much the liberals hate the President.</p>

<p>Nah, I agree with you rmadden15.</p>

<p>It’s kinda sad. But a lot of people don’t see the interesting side of bigger issues. And frankly, debating who’s going to the Super Bowl is pretty fun.</p>

<p>^ I know. The only thing I like more than the dabate on who will be in the Superbowl is the debate on which candidate will become President. There is more mudslinging in this race than I have ever seen. I mean, comparing Obama to Paris Hilton is just comical.</p>

<p>Yeah, but I do support Pro Sports, but the passion should be more important than the money.</p>

<p>I agree with everyone about the whole money thing but talking about sports is just too much fun. =]
anyway…
NFL- Philadelphia Eagles

<p>haha I’m just an allaround Philly fan. Although I’m not a huge follower of hockey, I more than make up for it with my love of football.</p>

<p>I just care about hockey… lol… Washington Capitals FTW! </p>

<p>Sigh, but if I had to choose…
NFL – Washington Redskins lolzzz
MLB – Baltimore Orioles</p>

<p>For the NBA I guess I like the Lakers… I don’t really have any team affiliation. Haha and ironically basketball is the only sport I actually watch (besides hockey); then again, usually it’s just March Madness.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I remember Ovechkin’s amazing goal vs. the 'Yotes a few years ago… wow it was crazy.</p>

<p>Lakers going all the way this year!</p>

<p>Kobe Bryant is not humane. Everyone pass the ball to Kobe and hope.</p>

<p>Kobe’s a god.</p>
