I am a huge basketball and boxing fan. Let this be known right now. I have always had a long battle with people about who has the best fans and who is the loudest during games and what games are the most exciting? It's an interesting topic. People get offended about this subject or they will go all out for their sport (giggle) and its a pretty interesting scene. But what really is the most exciting sport? Lets keep it simple. Soccer? Basketball? Football? Baseball? Hockey?

Baseball...America's sport, America's pastime...it's a sport where many kids are brought up to play, whether for fun, or FOR REAL, and they either grow to become a slugger or they coach their kids as time goes by. The intensity of this game really comes down to the playoffs, like most sports. Every pitch counts in the end. Every hit, every play. The crowd stands up usually in the 9th for every pitch or if it's intense, they stand at the end of each inning- Good stuff

Basketball..Love the sport, can be a bit lackluster during the season but when the playoffs arrive, its down to business. The last quarter is the best. Every possession with ball is extremely important. Dunks are always exciting. Razzle dazzel moves are always intriguing. Fans go crazy when there is that elusive "game winning shot."- It can get hype. 

Football. Games are only once a week, so of course fans are really looking forward to the game on football Sunday. Guys are tackling, running for that pigskin ball. Helmets are clashing, and scoring is done in many ways with field goals and touchdowns. Each play is scrutinized to the max and analyzed by the announcers. Interceptions are so exciting and so adored by everyone. Players spike the ball when they score and sometimes even jump in the stands - Awesome stuff

Soccer....Its a long game, scoring is rare. So of course when somebody scores, it's a pretty big deal. Fans come out and cheer different chants. Players go to the extent of taking off their shirt at times in sign of celebration. It's a global sport and play on the field is intense- Spectacular!

Hockey...Im not a huge hockey fan but...Every second, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN, ANYBODY CAN SCORE. Scoring is rare in this sport as well. In the playoffs,the crowd is on its toes EVERY MINUTE.There is fighting involved and its LEGAL!  FANS BANG on the glass in sign of appreciation to their home town team. A loud horn sounds when a goal is scored! These guys are on ice showing skill!!! The stadium is literally about to go nuts on every possession with sounds of "awwwwwwww" and "ooooooooooo" and "yyyeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa" (and that's like every second)- WWOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! 

So which sport is more exciting to me? Yea, I think you got the point. Whats yours?

BUT ANYWAY......... FLOYD FREAKIN MAYWEATHER

Floyd was arrested today and will do 3 months in jail for a domestic violence case with the mother of his children, THE BABY MOMMA! He wants to fight in the fall and we all know who we want to see Floyd fight, right....................? Well Mr Pacman himself has a bout with Tim Bradley coming up on June 9th. Lets see how that goes (my prediction: MANNY WILL DESTROY) I would get into the logistics of this whole deal of why Floyd and Manny haven't made a deal to fight yet, but I might lose you, so I'll put it in EASY TERMS FOR YOU. - MONEY. Yes guys, money. Even though they both will have the highest paid purse ever in boxing, its still not enough for Manny or Floyd. There is so much more to it, but again, its not worth it. If they dont fight this fall, this fight is over.

Until then, FLOYD, ENJOY YOUR TIME IN THE NICE CELL THEY ARE ABOUT TO PUT YOU IN. See you September 1st.
