We all need outlets to escape work and pressures of life. Unfortunately, sometimes that outlet becomes too much an emphasis in daily focus. It's funny how much we can put into something we as fans have zero effect on the outcome.

Baseball( High School Varsity 1982) and Softball- Base Softball Team 2004!
Basketball fan. Whether it is middle school, high school or college, I enjoy the game of basketball. Played in high school, decent player, one year of college ball at a small college. It was painfully obvious that I was not good enough to play even on the small college level. Was a high school basketball referee for...well...nearly 20 years. I still will occasionally referee a church league game, but those are few and far between. I would have to say college basketball is my favorite sport to watch.
#1 College football - Played in the yard with the kids a few years ago.
#2 MMA - Never stepped in a ring/octagon of any kind to fight.

i was seriously wondering because, especially with the atlanta united fan base, i find there are alot of "sports" fans who will get very vested in a professional level sport but have never played it previously nor would they

Been an Alabama fan my whole life...my family is from ala. And with that your either a ROLL TIDE or WAR EAGLE..I can't be a Auburn fan...growing up I wanted to play for THE BEAR or be a pro wrestler...THE BEAR RETIRED then pasted away...so there went that dream,plus I wasnt that good. So pro wrestling was the next thing...loved my dream for 22yrs....and I feel truly blessed for it..and I believe you dont have to be on a team of college ball to be a die hard fan... how bout all the GLOCK fans around,90%of them never worked for glock...lol
I was a swimsuit model (it IS a sport checkout Sports Illustrated 
) as a kid (not me below, but not kidding) almost 50 years ago.
I still swim every summer and take at least 7 showers a week... without a swimsuit...

I love College basketball but haven't picked up a ball since my kids graduated high school. I'd have to say my favorite is golf since every player is 100% responsible for his own success. There is no getting by on reputation like some of the washed up ballplayers. I still get out on the course a few times a year.
