Sport Survey

[Vectis]

Help my lad out chaps/chapesses....

As part of a piece of coursework for sociology :eek: it has been suggested that folks who tend towards a particular profession tend to have similar hobbies, likes and dislikes.

In particular, he's trying to gather some statistical evidence to support his theory. Now, I've already polled a bunch of my IT colleagues and the result was quite interesting. So I thought I'd post the same question to my DJ/entertainment "colleagues" too just to see what happens :o

Therefore I'd appreciate it if the few regular non-entertainer visitors refrain from answering - ta :beer1:

[DMX Will]

What do we have to do?!

Edit: Just seen the poll.

I voted for Occasionally - when there's a big tournament or match taking place (eg World Cup)

Not really into sports, but I never overlook an opportunity to escape down to the pub. ;)

I reckon there should possibly be another choice in there Martin, inbetween the second and third choices.

I love my football, but enjoy all the big tournaments for most other sports, rugby, cricket (20/20 - test too long and boring), tennis, basketball, golf, and I even watched Premier League darts a while back!!

Well I'm working from his list so based on what you wrote I'd go with #2 :)

OK, but then it wouldn't be a true reflection, would it?

I wouldn't say I was fanatical about 2 sports you see. :)

Look, it's for a GCSE which us old timer O & A-level folks know you can pass by turning up on time and putting the correct name on the paper using a pen rather than the more usual crayon.

So just pick the option that best describes your attitude towards sports (I mean, come on, "Sports" is a bit of a wide void in itself!) :beer1: :beer1:

OK, sorry to be picky.

I won't vote then. :D

Same here.....apart from the pub bit!

Well, it says one or two sports, and if that's just because Martin edited it I'd say that there's also an argument for counting English Premier League and World Cup football as separate sports :D

[Marc J]

I'm not allowed to vote :cry: :cry:

[Paul James Promotions]

Massive fan of Snooker, watch as much as possible. Also, any England football matches and the occasional local game.

Interesting... a fair spread across the board.

When I ran this with IT colleagues, virtually every one (and again they're mostly male) was on the "hate it" end of the scale.

Well Duh! IT workers are likely to be nerds, nerds hate sport. :sj:

:lol:

It has to be football for me, particularly the Premiership, Champions League and international level - but also SPL (Rangers :beer1: ) and La Liga (Serie A has lost it's appeal)

I also like to watch Snooker (not much good at playing it), and that's about it really...
