You ought to get into basketball, then. March madness is about to start up, too. Woo! can't wait.
I actually ref basketball, so I have a whole new appreciation for it, now. It's my second favorite sport, but it's not too far behind football for me. I'm just not as hardcore about a team like I am w/the 'boys.
I have not sat through a complete game since Jordan and Phil left the Bulls.
I remember the down times of Detriot and the bad boys killing them but then the Bulls got on top for years.
But even then I started growing tired of Basketball and the obvious BS refs who let some players (like Jordan) get away with things, while other players (rodman) got fouled for just looking at a guy.
Now don't get me wrong I know Rodman did things many times to get fouled but there were also many times they fouled him for just looking at a guy, while Jordan could walk, foul and everything else and they looked past it because he was the golden boy of the league.
Turned me against Basketball pretty much.
Now I catch some on Sports Center and once in a great while I will watch a Little college hoops, but for the most part I just can't get into it anymore.
However I would take that any day over Hockey, Baseball and Nascar.
