answer:When my team is doing well, I pay more attention. When they are doing poorly, it’s just too painful. And hockey? Well, who watches hockey any more? My football team and my baseball team were both in the playoffs this year. I actually started watching the baseball team, which is amazing since I don’t really like it. They went pretty far, and I watched all the playoff games. I used to be a Red Sox fan, but once they won the World Series, I was released from my childhood loyalties, and could become a fan of my local team. It’s nice, especially since they have been doing better than the Sox lately. Football is my favorite sport, but once my team lost in the playoffs (on wildcard weekend), I kinda stopped watching. The basketball team isn’t worth thinking about. I’ll watch some college basketball—especially at this time of year (March). Once we bought a couple of ticket packages for my University’s team, but my son wasn’t that into it, so we didn’t do it again. Frankly, I’d rather go to the opera (which I’m not really fond of).
