WRC, F1, watching paint dry and cricket. In that order.

No brainer here.... it has to be football for me.
I am an Italian soccer fan, and support ManU as a club.
Cricket i watch only for national interests.

Gimme motor sports anytime though.

Well surprisingly Football has outscored Cricket on this poll. However, the action on the football thread doesnt seem to support that. Top spot for Motorsports was a no brainer on this forum.

Interesting. Would like to hear more about this thought of yours. Coz martial arts, body building etc is fine, but Golf ? Aren't they two different types of activities ?

Football -> MotorSports -> Cricket.

Have been following club football for almost 12 odd years now and hooked on ever since. Started watching F1 and MotoGP 4-5 years back. Hooked on now, but can give it a miss once in a while.
Cricket. IPL rocks. India plays, I watch, but again can it a miss if they play teams like Bangladesh, Kenya et al.

I enjoy WRC and other motor sports.

Stopped watching cricket years back. Used to enjoy it when Kapil Dev and Sunil Gavaskar used to play. Those were cricket's golden years. IMO now the sport is way too commercialised and there are matches after matches and too difficult to keep track of.

Heck there is even a channel dedicated to cricket (Star cricket).

When do we get a channel dedicated to motorsports?

I like basketball,followed by 9 Ball or snooker , followed by F1. Cricket would be the last game i would prefer playing.
