villa4europe Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 NFL for me, its pretty much the only other sport i watch regardless of who is playing, probably because of a mixture of different playing styles and the huge numbers of players plus the lack of real information here boxing after that but the early morning fight times put me off, cricket is ok T20 is very good, rugby union i only watch england, tennis bores me to tears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PussEKatt Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 For me it"s NFL but apart from Superbowl I only watch replays.A live game goes for 4 hours, I don"t want to be in front of the TV that long. Mind you cricket goes for 4 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Love the NFL (I even have a Ravens jersey Dante!), but the NBA clinches it for me. I went over to America a few years ago now when the Celtics (my team) were in the playoffs against Orlando Magic. In the playoffs in the NBA it's the best out of 7 games, so there was a Celtics game on evry other night. Much like other sports though, constant fouling and rulebreaking breaks up the game too much and it's really noticable in basketball. However, when a game is allowed to flow, it's so fast-paced and there's some amazing feats of physical and technical ability on display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I dont know how it works over there but over here a live game goes for 4 hours ( this includes college games ) they show 2-3 replays of each play here.

Houlston Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Moto GP, its everything F1 is only with racing. Also if anyone wants to experience a brilliant atmosphere you really cant beat the darts, even if you dont like the sport itself, I'd still say most would enjoy going.

BOF Posted March 29, 2012 Moderator Share Posted March 29, 2012 We (as in Britain & Ireland) get the live American feed including replays. A game kicks off at 6pm our time and another kicks off at 9pm. Sometimes you miss the first few minutes of the 2nd game and sometimes you don't. You never miss an hour though. So I dunno what your network are doing PussEKatt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well from what you are saying there is definately something going on somewhere cause a live game here goes 4 hours, like I said including college games, so WTF is happening ?! I mean the game is live,how can the network fiddle that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree, I didnt even know that the first meet had happened until the following week passed and becaause its strangely harder to follow I've sort of lost interest in it. Cant wait for the GP to kick of though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Cricket is about the only other sport I pat attention to these days. I'd go as far as to say, I probably watched more cricket than football last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It's a tie between ice hockey and basketball for me. Villa struggling of late doesn't irk me as much as most, as I've been a lifelong Toronto Maple Leafs and ©Raptors fan. I remember growing up, nothing was better than a Saturday night kicking it with the Leafs (when they were actually half-decent)...of course they played on other days of the week.

NibblyPig Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Blimey, this thread brings back some memories. Wonder whatever happened to MattS? Does he post on other Villa boards? ... and JPA?! The corners of my mind have been illuminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
