Sports has been a huge part of my life since .. well.. birth.
Loving the Red Sox is built into the genetic DNA of my family. To say otherwise would mean being outcast. Granted, I watch a TON of sports, but few sports teams get the love and devotion from me that I give the Red Sox. Even my two kids are already programmed that there is no greater privilege than watching, loving, cheering the Red Sox to victory or supporting them when they go through the rough patches. When you're a Red Sox fan, you don't just cheer the current team, you cheer the history and the traditions that go along with it. The only other team that comes close for me is Man. Utd. That's a completely different story completely.
I'd rather play the sports than watch them, but with the exception of the NBA and the NHL (I quit watching thanks to the stupid rules they have in place now) I watch it all.
As far as doing, I do wrestling, Muay Thai, American Freestyle Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, running, swimming and still play baseball, softball, and basketball. Sometimes I'll kick the footy around for a bit to relive my glory days or toss the pigskin around on holidays.
