1. Daytona 500 by far
I'm not an NBA All Star game fan but NASCAR is 99% rednecks

14. It's the truth
and you know it......not only is NASCAR made up of a bunch of Republicans (NASCAR is a favorite of white trash) but it's not even a REAL sport.

2. Wow. There both this weekend?
My local ABC affiliate is having a "Tootsie" marathon. I'm all over that.

3. NBA All-Star game.
Bleh. I'm a NASCAR fan, though I doubt I can watch either unless the hotel I'm staying at has Dish and not Sky. We'll see.

11. The 500 is a competitive event with a real winner
the all-star game is a mardi gras parade on sneakers, not a sporting event.

13. LOL, ain't that the truth.
I'd love to see the Daytona 500, just once in my life. My husband went a few times, when he lived in Florida. Of course, the whole "show us your ta-tas" gets old after about five minutes, but I'd still like to go.

15. NBA all star game in particular...
basketball in general. BOR-ING!!!!

Not that I'm a rabid NASCAR fan or anything, but at least, like someone else said, there are the occasional crashes.


Mr Pip is convinced I should have been born a man. Not too many women enjoy violent sports like football, boxing, and racing.

I would probably enjoy watching bowling or golf if the participants went after each other with the bowling balls or golf carts.

;)



PS...although to redeem myself, I also enjoy watching figure skating...
