So far, two catagories have kind of suprised me. The first is wrestling. No love for John Smith or Cael? The second is football. I would have bet the house that there would be a few votes for Montana and Rice by now.

RYou, it's hard to believe you say hockey is boring.

I'd rather watch hockey than baseball, lacrosse, college football, most NFL games, college football, etc. I've been a hockey fan for over 25 years, and the game is the best it's ever been.

Every sport has it's dull moments & exciting moments. In the USA people watch more NFL then the other 3 major sports combined. That should speak volumes about what folks here are into. To me there isn't too much more exciting of a sports event then going to Beaver Stadium on a Fall Saturday. I think like most Football fans most of watch the NBA or NHL in the playoffs or game 6s or 7s. Having been to the Olympics I have to say that those were exciting events & I also enjoy UEFA Champions League & EPL.

Lately I have been watching a lot of Jose Reyes, really having a great year.

What is EPL? And I don't know if you heard, but Reyes just got put on the DL. He is in the midst of an MVP-like season and a contract year. Hope it doesn't affect him too much.
