Sports watchin' mamas tribe

[busymama77]

Not sure if there is a tribe out there already like this, so if there is, please let me know!!

I'm a football, baseball, hockey, soccer, golf, tennis, winter sport, watchin' mama!! Anyone else?
I work full time in the sports industry - client representation for NFL players as an office manager, so ESPN is on in our office all day, everyday. Occasionaly, NFL radio is blasting from the office speakers... things of this nature. While I don't participate in fantasy leagues (I leave that up to my DH ), I do particpate in office pools and recently tied for 2nd for the football pool.

What's your favorite sport to watch and why? Who's your favorite player?

NFL in our house! every sunday, we spend the day in the basement to see all the games. hmm, i'd have to think a little bit about my favoritest player but we cheer for the colts so we're pretty pumped for superbowl.

I am a huge football fan; since I live in New Orleans, I have been on cloud 9 since Sunday at 9:45. LOL. I also like the Colts and adore Peyton Manning, so while my heart is with the Saints, if we have to lose, I would rather lose to him than anyone else.

My favorite player would have to be Drew Brees; he is an amazing man, class guy all the way and he and his wife have done incredible things for the city. I am not surprised that he and Archie Manning have become great friends. Birds of a feather....

I also like basketball and follow our Hornets, but growing up down south, I will always be a football loving girl!

I live in Indiana, and the Colts do their training camp in my town every year. We're super pumped about the Super Bowl.

I never really was into watching sports, but after being in the same house with dh for 4 years it's kind of rubbed off on my. Now we watch every game that's not on the NFL Network (we find and watch those on the internet.)

I'm a football, tennis, and hockey and occasionally golf watchin mama!!!
I LOVE football and tennis. I'm a college football addict. I'm a longhorn so my favorite team is Texas! and I love, love, adore Colt McCoy, and I am wishing him a great future in the NFL. As for pro football, I love the Cowboys and the Colts. My favorite pro football player is Peyton Manning.

And tennis..ooo i love tennis! I love Andy Roddick and Rafa Nadal. Poor Rafa, by the way, with what just happened at the Austrailian Open!!! I hope he can come back!!!

Golf, well that's just once in a while, and hockey too, once in a while, DH is really the hockey and golf fan over here, so I don't have favorite players.

YAY! I'm so glad this post got moved to the Television forum. I wasn't sure where to post it initially.

I'm unbiased when it comes to the SB this year because the company that I work for represents both QB's. But my Dad is a HUGE Saints fan as he used to live in New Orleans himself and has always been a fan of the city. I think both QB's - Peyton and Drew - are remarkable players and just overall genuine guys. So whomever wins, either one deserves it.

I can't wait for Baseball season to start, though. I can't wait to take the family to see the Cardinals and soak up the atmosphere!

My husband lived in the dorm they stayed at one year. It was so cool. All year I'd wander around his dorm going I wonder if Manning made sandwiches here.

I am a huge Saints fan!! Born in Louisiana near New Orleans and now living in Switzerland.My Swiss husband stayed up all night to watch the playoff game and I woke up at 4 to nurse my son and saw THE KICK . I just can't believe it!!! The Saints are in the Superbowl We lost every thing in Katrina and moved away less than a year ago. The city needs this. It does not matter if we win or lose, and to lose to a NOLA son would not be so bad. I mean it's Archie's kid.

Who dat, who dat, who dat say they gonna beat dem Saints? Who dat?
