From: "Mark" 

I'm not a real big sports fan in general, but prefer the individual over
the team sports. Well, except tennis, that never did anything for me.

On TV I like NASCAR and Formula racing and Golf, but I'm not a glutton for
punishment, I'll watch the last 20-30 laps of a car race and the last 1-2
hours of the last day of a golf tournament.
