Which sports do you enjoy watching

I was going to say football but actually 95% of the time I question why I bother. With the state of the game I don’t find it that enjoyable to watch especially internationals

I like watching snooker, pool and darts although people will question which ones of those are actual sports :p

Also really enjoy watching baseball and the shorter innings cricket formats.

Oh and MMA. Been a big fan since the mid 00s.

The sport I love the most is obviously football but for 90% of the time I'm not sure I'd use the word enjoy to describe my feelings towards watching it. I'm too emotionally invested to enjoy it most of the time.

I guess the sport I've enjoyed sitting back and watching the most in the last few years has been white ball cricket and more recently the England test side again.
 
Rugby Union used to be my #1 sport to watch and play. But I'm past it now, tried playing again a couple years back and wrecked my knee. To watch I've really fallen out of love with the game, it's sad seeing what's happened with the English Premiership, and the six nations needs changing.

At least my team (Harlequins) is in that sweet spot of being good to watch, decent enough to occasionally win stuff, but not dominant and boring, so I still watch.

I started watching club football more about 7-8 years ago mainly as something to talk to the in-laws about (she's from Manc and the whole family are rabid united supporters) so I kinda fell into it as well. I spend most weekend days out climbing so the later kick offs and weekday games are better suited to my schedule, and obviously there's no shortage of games to watch.

Always been into test cricket, nothing better than sunny summers listening to TMS. T20 has evolved into a great sport. The one day game is just a bit **** in comparison.

UFC is ace. Not giving boxing anymore money, it's a farce these days.

I will watch pretty much any sport though. I have basically zero interest in TV and Film these days, the TV only goes on for sport. I quite like MLB and NFL occasionally.

My favourite sport to watch is Basketball because I play it. Even though the NBA regular season is a bit boring these days. It's all lazy defence, isolation and three point shots. However the playoffs are amazing.

My second favourite sport to watch is Rugby Union. And the fact that Ireland are in a good spot right now and playing well, it makes watching the sport so much better :)

I enjoy watching American Football too. I don't watch too much of it because I am subscribed to the NBA league pass and don't have the time or the money to watch both. But, anytime there is a game on Free TV I really enjoy it.

And like most sports people, I love watching the Olympics when it's on.
 
I used to watch a lot of sport especially Football, MMA and Rugby but seem to have lost interested in them - I think its because they are so over-hyped and commercialized!.

Its not the most popular sport but the only thing I'd go out f my way to watch now would be Squash!
 
Aside from football I enjoy:

Cricket (can be a bit inconsistent... great cricket matches are amazing entertainment, but there's also some dross)
Darts
Ice Hockey (although due to crap eyesight I struggle to track the puck at times)
Major athletics events
Snooker (kind of moreish... like, I rarely plan to watch it but if I find it on then I can get sucked in)

When I was younger I used to enjoy:
F1
Touring Cars
NFL
NBA
Wrestling
 
I just love sport so I'll watch anything and that is amplified when the Olympics comes around and I start watching all sorts of weird events. I just love competition.
Sports I actively follow is actually a rather small list. Boxing, F1, Cycling and I'm getting back into basketball after a bit of a hiatus.

I really like athletics when diamond league events are taking place. Only sport I have real no interest in is Baseball but that's more through ignorance rather than actually disliking it.
