OT #1 Sport

[ConnHuskBask]

Baseball is my #1 by a wide margin. I still play in adult wood bat leagues and tourneys at age 39. I live eat and sleep baseball, have since I was 5yrs old.

That's awesome. I'd love to play on the weekends, even if it was just as a sub once in a blue moon.

I played catcher growing up, which I feel like is either the least filled position in a men's league or the most easily filled.

I love riding my bicycle on trainers while watching the Tour de France.
I've ridden 10 out of the last 12 tours!

Yes, Charlotte.

Senior Softball...I still play.

Baseball, love to watch those Yanks, but last year I coached 7 and 8 year olds and watching them develop and improve provided the biggest charge of all.

Baseball, football, basketball, tennis, hockey growing up.

Golf entered the picture during the Tiger years and has supplanted tennis as my #4.

 

[SirHypeAlot]

College Basketball is definitely my number 1
When UConn is in the dredges I spend more time following golf. Those are my 1 & 2

4 years is a pretty significant amount of time in my book.
We need to quickly identify talent right now that we think can help us in 4 years. It all starts with Pulisic, on down to Brooks, Yedlin. After that, maybe Miazga and Horvath will be first options?
But the squad needs to be filled out with guys who want to fight for the jersey, and realize that World Cup qualification isn't just handed to them. We need guys who have a ceiling of high level European soccer. Whatever the issues are, we somehow aren't finding these players in a country with over 300 million people.
And it is completely inexcusable.

Baseball

Gotta go with this

 

[Paesano]

I fell in love with basketball when I attended UConn. Before that, I was a baseball guy. Now I am a basketball guy but it wouldn't have been so without UConn. My only regret from the last four years is that I didn't form an AAU team. I came really close a couple of times but the talent pool is thin here.

How do you justify the Boston sports fandom and Yankee fandom?

 

[BlueDogs]

Football - any game any time
basketball - college
Baseball - pros
Winter Olympics
Summer Olympics
Hockey - NHL playoffs
Soccer - World Cup

 

[ct06111]

Have you checked out a UConn hockey game?

I highly suggest you do.

Way better atmosphere than Wolfpack games and it's UConn.

LOL it’s kind of complicated. Basically, my dad likes the Yankees and doesn’t really follow other sports.

 

[noeynox]

Is it hockey? We all have memories of playing on the frozen pondsnu in our hometowns.-Not all of us!

Football. UConn and Patriots. UConn mens basketball.

Ironically UConn mens basketball and the Pats lost some luster when they started winning titles and the bandwagon started filling up.

These days I hope to see the Mets win it all soon.

The past few years have been difficult, the older I get the fewer poops I give about sports. Baseball lost me during the strike and I find it unwatchable now on TV.

I have to say - I totally agree. I used to be a rabid sports guy. Now, I mostly don't care. I love going to UCONN football, basketball, and hockey games because of my connection to CT and UCONN and I see a lot of friends and family. I support the Patriots and have season tickets, but mostly because I inherited them from my uncle. Maybe because I have a wife, kids, career, mortgage, minivan, etc, sucking up all of my worry space. Or maybe Netflix is so great that I have better entertainment.
