12. More or less in order
1. Baseball (DETROIT TIGER baseball -- even when they suck, which is generally).
2. Hockey (either Saginaw Spirit (OHL) or Detroit Red Wings).
3. HS/College football (go Arthur Hill, go Central Michigan!!)
4. NFL football (represented here by the Detroit Lions).
5. College basketball (except for the NCAA tournament, which is a big deal).
6. NBA basketball (though the Pistons get quite a bit of tube time here).

Edited on Mon Jan-23-06 07:21 PM by Kali
not PRCA stuff, real ranch people using real useful skills for not much prize money.

#2 anything somebody I know might be playing

#3 I can watch baseball - especially at the end like the World series or something, when the Diamondbacks won a few years ago that was kind of cool.

uh, that's about it I guess, sports kinda bores me. Used to like to play basket ball, but .....
