I like watching Rugby and Aussie Rules Football. Never understood Cricket though.

Nope. Soccer is the only place where I get my un-American on.

I'm an Indian and I hate cricket. Never given the other sports much of a chance.

Yep. Don't know why penalties are called, but those dudes are bad fricking arse.

I'm American and I hate baseball, I assume for much the same reasons.

I don't hate baseball, it's just one of my least favorite sports. Partly because my coaches were real jerks when I played Little League. Kinda ruins it for a kid.

Hockey if that counts.

Same here...a-hole coaches just stuck me in left-center field.
ETA: I enjoy watching rugby, but I don't really understand it. I always root for Nadal/Murray/Federer over any of our slapdick tennis players.

Baseball is too boring.
I played rugby and love soccer, so...
Also like to watch golf and tennis depending on the tournament

Rugby is cool. Aussie Rules Footy is a little stranger. I've tried watching it multiple times, but I still don't know what's going on in Cricket.

I am a fan of Twenty20 cricket.
It lasts about as long as a baseball game, as opposed to the several day test cricket matches. It is sorta like watching a homerun derby played with cricket rules.

I don't even consider it a sport. It's a kid's game.

I really enjoy watching rugby and Aussie rules football. I watched the AFL Grand Final last season that ended in a tie and had to be replayed...but I missed the replay match. I was pretty pissed about missing it. In the early fall if you're up late 2-4am) ESPN has some games on.

I can watch nearly any sporting event.. but for the life of me, I can not understand cricket. The terminology just throws me off. When I watch Fox Soccer and I see cricket highlights with its "wickets" and triple digit scores.... I become a red blooded American real quick and I just want to drink beer and watch the Braves. When it comes to a bat and a ball, God Bless America
