I'm pretty sure some of you also follow other sports. What other sports are you into? More importantly: what other teams do you support/follow?

I played football (soccer) most of my life, therefore I'm a huge football geek. I follow FC Luzern (Swiss local team), also have sympathy for a couple other teams in other countries.

Moreover:
American football (Raiders)
Baseball (Braves)
hockey (Jets and EV Zug - also my local team)

I'm a big soccer fan as well, supported Chelsea since the early 90s. I haven't been able to keep up with it lately - between the expensive streaming platform it's on this year (Fubo) and that, thanks to two small kids, it's hard to watch without the result having been spoiled already.

NFL - I follow the Seahawks.

NBA - Technically the Warriors, I started basically as a joke (Danny Tanner loved them!) before they got good, but I don't watch them very often.

Baseball I can only watch the playoffs, otherwise it's a snoozer to me.
 
Baseball - Jays but I was a die hard Expos fan growing up
NFL - Vikings
Soccer - Man United
NBA - Raptors
 
Twins
Bombers
Liverpool

Not an NFL or NBA guy but enjoy college football and basketball. Gophers mostly.
 
Jets, Bombers, Cowboys.

Don’t really follow college sports but I’d take LSU or North Dakota. Baseball and basketball I can’t get into but I do like following the Goldeyes and will probably like the Sea Bears as well.

Hockey - Jets & Bruins
MLB - Jays and Mets
CFL - Bombers
F1 - Aston Martin (and any Canadian drivers on the Grid)
Olympics - Canada

That is about if for sports that I ever spend any time watching….Will watch some Tour De France - but only mountain stages, just for the entertainment and pain those riders go through to compete.

NFL Bronco’s but really it’s all about my fantasy team.

Footie Man U (but I don’t watch much anymore)

Jets for sure but I won’t reach 20 games viewed this season. It’s been a really busy year and I’ve lost my appetite for watching the NHL on TV live since the Covid shut downs.


We don’t watch much TV as a family and only watch sports live together. Growing up in a household with a dad that was a Coach- PhysEd guy and a sports fanatic I thought I would try a more balanced approach and it turns out I over corrected lol.

No rules against it they can turn on a game if they want but I don’t like to watch the games in front of my kids. Both my kids are active in playing Sports and we all enjoy the live events when we get out but that is usually the Banjo Bowl and 2 Jets games. With Busy kids sports schedules pro sports are a low priority and not easy to squeeze in.
 
I mean the easy ones are Bombers, Jays, Raptors
NFL I prefer the league as a whole but maybe the Giants
Occasionally Toronto FC or Man Utd

I'm an MC fan too. I got hooked on the Premier League years ago while recovering from hip surgery. First game I saw in TV was MC (fan of David Silva) v. Tottenham Hotspur (bit of a fondness for them too). In the UK several years ago and was able to catch a MC v. Tottenham game at the old White Hart Lane stadium (last season for it). It was a hoot. Even my wife got a charge from it. 4-2 for the Hotspur though.
