And mow it ... and mow it ... and mow it.

A really nice snowfall is a good thing to watch on a Sunday afternoon.

Even way up here we love Nascar. I try not to miss a race. Actually got to see the Daytona 500 in person in 86. What an Awsome experience.

I'm into the shooting sports and that's how my interest in the ACW developed. If I had to watch a sport involving a team and a ball on TV, it would be a soccer match involving the English. That way I can watch the cops put down a riot while the stadium burns.

Talking Anything better then a good college game

What can be better, then a fall afternoon, chilly weather. & watching a great game. Either on tv or at the game. Nothing better.

PS a bad college game is still better than a good pro game

I love football and basketball and I also prefer the college game to the pros. I would rather watch Maryland-Eastern Shore play Alcorn State than the Spurs play the Mavericks. I also like baseball but not as much as I used too. The players in baseball are such brats they make Terrell Owens look like he is the winner of the Most Humble Person of the Year Award.

Football... NFL. The Colts should have been in the Super Bowl last year. I still can't believe that after the season they had it all fell apart at the end, but ...stuff happens. Maybe this season??

Football, plain and simple. Nothing says Autumn more than watching football, leaves changing colors then falling, finally seeing your breath outside again and the first smell of someone's fireplace.

Old fashioned, I guess, but Im a lifelong Baseball fanatic, esp. the Cleveland Indians. I would put PBR (Pro Bull Riding, not the beer) as second. Years ago, I was really into GLOW...Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. I dont think it qualified as a sport but who noticed?
