I really like all of the "big four" - baseball, football, basketball and hockey. Of course, I grew up on the South Side of Chicago, so that translates into White Sox, Bears (and Cardinals before them), Bulls and Blackhawks. As a kid, I played a ton of baseball and I was one heck of a shortstop. We didn't have any organizations for the other sports back then. As a teen, I umpired some park district baseball for three seasons. We used only one ump and you stood behind the pitcher. I really enjoyed it and I got paid $2 per game, which was a pretty good rate back then.
Soccer? Fahgeddaboudit, unless one of the grandkids is playing.
