Grew up a total geek totally avoiding athletics until I discovered tennis in high school. In the early 90s I started watching soccer and became a huge fan. I once watched a baseball (Red Sox) game in Tempe on a lark with a friend who is an obsessive Sox fan.

I've never watched any American football, hockey, rugby, cricket, basketball, or what have you. I don't know how subs work in those sports. Like I said -- no snark.
