How much are you missing sports?

Curious to see how others feel about the lack of Major Sports across the US. I don't follow sports in other continents as well, but curious about those as well.

We are 3 months into a would-be MLB season. A paused NHL and NBA season (for now) and who knows what will happen with the NFL come August.

I think I might be in the minority here, but growing up as a major New England sports fan, I'm surprisingly not missing sports as much as I thought. I think this has made me realize how little impact they had on my life... How do others feel?
 
Only ever really watch the NFL and Premiere League. Not vegging out in front of a TV for 3 hours 4 days a week isn't gonna hurt me.
 
I got really into March Madness a few years ago, and so since then I've always gotten excited for it. March sucked to say the least.
 
I was pretty bummed when the NCAA tournament got cancelled but now I don't even notice that pro sports aren't happening. Guess it would be nice to sit out at a baseball game again, doesn't even have to be MLB.
 
I'm a big baseball fan, rarely watch on TV usually just radio or going to games, I miss it dearly, it's like a daily companion to my summer.

Moved to Denver in September and was looking forward to the Rockies games..guess I'll have to wait
 
I miss watching the canucks play. But hey, if we lose in the first round we have a shot at the first overall pick so there's that....
 
Miss me some hockey. Bittersweet to unknowingly at the time attend both the last day of the ski season and the last day of the ahl season.

Hockey playoffs would consume most my evenings in the spring/early summer. Just been playin a lot more vidya instead.

I miss organized cockfights in the basement of the Korean grocery store the most

I mean I understand from their perspective. When you need to stand armed on your roof 24/7 its hard to run a tournament like that in your basement.
 
Been enjoying watching the PGA tour since it returned, ill usually watch some hockey but I don't have any skin in the game so it hasnt bother me much, just hoping we still get the NFL this fall.

Not really a popular sport on NS, but I'm excited about the NBA season resuming in a month.

Are they gonna allow crowds? If they don’t it’ll be cool to watch it with no noise from the crowd

No live audience! This is gonna be a weird experience for sure, I'm also super curious to see how that will impact the feel of the game, you'll be able to clearly hear all the trash talk I hope.

I wonder if they'll still play some music, but it would probably be weird without the crowd...

We'll see, but it's going to be interesting to see for sure.
 
hockey mostly, especially with the season ending right in the middle of a pretty sweet playoff push....Would've been a sweet cup run for some teams instead of the playoff qualifier and tournament for the cup and a higher draft pick but whatever.

can live without football for a minute, but yeah really enjoy working early morning weekends and being home just before the pre-game shows are ending for the early games.

for what it's worth, premier league soccer with no fans in the stands hasn't been too weird so far in my opinion. i thought it would have more of an effect on watching. YMMV of course
