I prefer to watch the Winter Olympic Games.

Not big on sports, but have to admit, loved watching White last night! Otherwise, my father was big on figure skating, so it grew on me. Also get a ki...

The NHL should not ban fighting.

Beyond the fact that it would be a losing battle, it's what many fans look forward to in games. Sorry, but I would sorely miss watching Malkin and Cro...

Tiger Woods is not the greatest golfer in the history of the game.

Not big on golf, but very big on supporting the locals. I live just to the west of Arnold Palmer's backyard, so in deference to local loyalty, have to...

Sponsors should drop Tiger Woods.

If they honestly think that Tiger's scandal will effect their bottom line, then by all means, drop him. In business, all publicity is not necessarily ...

The BCS is not an effective method for determining the national champion.

Deferring to the hubby on this one. He's ambivalent at best when it comes to the BCS. I have a sneaking suspicion it has something to do with the fact...

The Philadelphia Phillies will win the 2009 World Series.

For two reasons: Number one, I don't like the Yankees! Number two, Governor Rendell needs an excuse to spend a ludicrous amount of money in Philadelph...

Major League Baseball should not use instant replay to review umpires' decisions.

Absolutely not! If they did, we'd lose some of the most entertaining parts of the game - coaching staff getting into screaming matches with the umpire...

Plaxico Burress' jail sentence was not appropriate.

Hell no!! Not long enough! This falls under my basic theory that professional athletes should be held to a much higher standard than they are. If your...

Derek Jeter should win the 2009 American League MVP.

As fiance says, it's not just about numbers. Jeter's a leader.

Seattle Seahawks will win the 2009 NFC West.

Not big on sports, keep getting asked on these things, and honestly just think that lightning isn't striking twice for Arizona. So this isn't so much ...

Pittsburgh Steelers will win the 2009 AFC North.

As if a Pittsburgher would pick another team!!

I do not like running as a form of exercise.

My knees have hated it for over 20 years now.

The NFL should not allow Michael Vick to play in the 2009 season.

The NFL needs to ban him for life. But that would require that someone in the NFL recognize that professional football players should be held to a hig...

Drew Brees should not be the first quarterback chosen in 2009 fantasy football drafts.

Should be Big Ben, but what other answer would you expect from a Pittsburgher who doesn't do fantasy football! ;-)

Golf should not be an Olympic sport.

It has more than enough to keep growing on its own.

Rio de Janeiro should host the 2016 Summer Olympic Games.

For many reasons, not the least of which being the economy there. Definitely a better choice when it comes to scenery.

The entire list of 104 players who tested positive for steroids in 2003 should be made public.

As a parent, I would like to know this. I don't want to encourage my kids to consider these players as role models.

Pete Rose should not be allowed in the Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame needs to be about more than accomplishments on the diamond or in the dugout. It needs to be about maintaining high standards in life ...

Home-field advantage in the World Series should not be awarded to the team whose league wins the All-Star Game.

Home-field advantage should be given to the team that earns it. All-Star Game results should have absolutely nothing to do with it.
