Baseball.  I watch baseball religiously.  I  follow hockey but because they lost their contract with ESPN, it's harder to watch the games on TV......so I stick to box scores and stuff online.

I don't really watch sports on TV...but occasionally I will watch baseball and hockey. I do love to see both in person though. ;)

Sure, but I have the five regular channels plus whatever is available on a Freeview box that needs retuning.  I don't think Eurosport is available on it.

College Wrestling: Local Channels to watch Oklahoma State and Oklahoma dual meets. Then ESPN for the NCAA Finals

College Basketball: Like watching Oklahoma and Oklahoma State games

College Football: Like watching Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas football games.

College Baseball: It's only on once a year but the world series

College Softball: It's only on once a year but the world series

NFL: Was a big fan of the Houston Oiler's for years and years and years, nowadays I just catch whatever's on with no real interest in who wins.

MLB: St Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs games

NBA: Indiana Pacer's from time to time.

Boxing: Lenox Lewis is fun to watch and anyone that can beat Mike Tyson

I like watching the olympics but think that Television coverage focuses on one sport to much.  There's a lot more to the olympics than swimming and gymnastics but you wouldn't know that by watching American television.

Hunting and fishing shows as well.

To add to my list: bowling. Last night I watched a bowling match on CSTV (College Sports TV, a digital cable channel); I was amazed at how many strikes all these people could make. :o

Spelling Bee? Since when does that count as a sport? ::) There's no athletic activity involved in doing a Spelling Bee.

Sure there is.  You have to be able to hyperventilate at a moment's notice and then spit out the letters as they come to you.  Not to mention walking back and forth from your contestant chair.  It's like a biathlon.
