ST Poll: Is there a sport you used to be a big fan of and now do not watch at all? Why?

Posted by oblique (aka kkuphal) Mar 1 '10, 10:58

Basketball. I was very much a fan during the Bulls reign but once that was over I totally lost interest to the point it is dull and boring to me

I don't watch as much of any sport as I used to since The Bub arrived. -- nm - Spawn Mar 1, 11:21
I was a big Phillies fan growing up, then a Colorado Rockies fan when they got the team. Lost interest after the strike and haven't looked back. -- nm - JaxSean Mar 1, 11:20
NBA basketball. -- nm - Callisto Mar 1, 11:13

Not really, but my NBA consumption is probably 10% of what it once was. (nm) - musubi Mar 1, 11:06 1

NFL.....I grew up on excellence and for the most part in the salary cap years, that's gone. - Will Hunting Mar 1, 11:04 3
- That seems to contradict itself. You complain of the lack of excellence and then say that it's not a coincidence that so many teams have made a run - Jim Mar 1, 11:13 2
  - Not really....it's 1 team a season taking advantage of 26 average to mediocre to bad teams. - Will Hunting Mar 1, 11:17 1
    - watch some classic NFL replays. those teams were tiny and slow compared to today's. they would get blown off the line -- nm - jingoist pixie Mar 1, 11:22
MLB and the NBA, but I now watch Football and Golf more than ever - MDH Mar 1, 11:02
jai alai. I haven't been to a fronton in years. I'll never bet on humans again. -- nm - CQ Mar 1, 11:01
baseball - it basically lost me after the strike. -- nm - Reagen Mar 1, 11:01
Nope. My sports fandom has expanded since then, not retracted. -- nm - TFox Mar 1, 11:00
NBA. I started to lose interest when Chuck went to Houston. Once he retired, I didn't care at all anymore. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 10:59
hockey - scarcity on TV -- nm - prayformojo Mar 1, 10:59
