My view is that England gave the world its three greatest team sports. Football, Cricket and Rugby Union. If any of those are on tv, I'll sit and watch them.

Road cycling, both doing and watching, is easily my number one sport.
Football is second, although only for watching these days unfortunately, as I no longer play.

West, West, West Sussex.
I guess Cricket and Boxing have been the most exciting for me other than football over the years.
Athletics in the 80s but I don't trust any of them now.
Participation swimming and running. If only cycling wasn't involved in a triathlon probably my least favourite sport.

Distinction between sports, pastimes and exercise is a moot one as far as participation goes.

To my mind, it's only really sport if you are in a competitive environment where the result is recorded more widely. So, I participate in ski-ing, table tennis, cycling, tennis and cricket but it's only the latter I would count as sport.

What do others think?

I love cricket. Spend most of the summer either at the cricket club, travelling round different parts of Yorkshire taking the nipper to matches or watching it live or on TV.

Participation, the only sport I do is climbing. Used to be really good at it and got back into it after a long break. Then I had a really bad accident while bouldering in France so now I just bumble around at the local bouldering wall or the climbing wall at the gym. Still enjoy it although it's frustrating being rubbish.

I'll watch most sport though. Love the golf majors and the Ryder Cup, F1, athletics etc. Can't be doing with egg chasing though. I have tried but it's just so bloody dull for the most part and at the top level ruined by constant penalties and tight decisions where nobody knows what's actually right or wrong.

Joint favourite sports: Cycling & American Football

Closely followed by: Ice Hockey, Motocross, Cricket, Biathlon...& the Albion

If it wasn't for the Albion, football wouldn't even make the list. Never watch or take any interest in football at all outside the walls of the Amex.

To be honest, I can watch any sport. I love loads of stuff.

But if pushed, it would be cycling, rugby, squash (which gets little airtime), cricket, American Football, tennis, basketball - in that order.

You're assuming that football is everyone's favourite sport, which is a pretty big assumption.

For me, it's behind cricket and rugby

Kindred spirits. Come on you Quins- and Sussex.

I hope the nipper can BAT. If so, it's straight down the M1 to the Sussex academy. We are in NEED.
