Which do you enjoy watching more? Are you more of a basketball fan or a football fan?

I like basketball more. However, sometimes the NBA drives me crazy focusing on the same teams and players ALL THE TIME. I find the NFL focuses much more on everyone, which I like a lot more. Even despite that I like the NBA more.

I love basketball, but my love for football is growing because I play the sport(I'm hardly athletic enough/tall enough to play basketball at my school). For me, in terms of watching, I love watching football because of how spargingly you get to see the players lace up and go at it(16 games and some) although I think I'm a bigger basketball fan.

Even before coming onto RealGM, I was a HUGE Football fan. I don't think my love for Football will ever change. I've been watching this sport for nearly 10 years now. I mean I watched Basketball regularly back then, but I always made sure to watch football every week.

I'm more of a football fan, personally. I also prefer college level basketball to the NBA.

Football. Even though the Skins have always sucked, I still love watching it.

Basketball playoffs are much more interesting but the regular season IMO just doesn't have the intensity of the NFL reulgar season.

**** Duke!

Now with that out of the way, I honestly prefer to watch football. NBA has been getting worse and worse every year and college basketball sucks with one and done freshmen and mediocre seniors who can't dribble with their left hand. I still watch NBA playoffs and some of the better games during the season, but I am catching every NFL game I can.

I love watching basketball the most, but football is certainly up there.

I made this thread because I noticed that I looked forward to football season a lot more then I look forward to basketball season, and now that football season is here I can wait for basketball season. I've also been spending more time on the NFL board and less on the NBA board.

I'd have to say I like football more.

Basketball is definitely my favorite sport to play, and I love to watch college and high school basketball, but the NFL is my favorite sport to watch. I dont play football, never have, never will, but I LOOOVE the NFL season, I hate college football though.

This poll just shows how NBA really needs to put their **** together before it goes NHL way
