I dont think hes a fake aussie. Just a petrol head. But nobody likes Rugby League. (Except for Origin)

Im also an Aussie. Im a big time sports head. To never watch footy or cricket again would cost plenty. Maybe 2 million. Theres no amount of money you could pay me to never play cricket again.

$10M at least.

This just seems absurd. I'm a huge NFL, college football and college basketball fan and love watching games and highlights and stuff, but I'm pretty sure I'd part with them for like $100k. I could entertain myself in plenty of other ways with that money.

you are not a HUGE fan at all then.

I'm not sure how much for me...it would definitely have to be enough that I could party it up all day long and have fun without sports- kinda live like Vince in Entourage.

A million wouldn't be enough...I'd buy a nice house and furnish it and a nice car and put some in savings, but I wouldn't have enough left over to live like a rock star, and then life would suck without sports. I'd say $3 million then I guess.

Is running and going to work out in the gym considered a sport? If so, then no amount of money because health > $$$$. If not, then the toughest part would be forgoing Super Bowl parties and kid's sports. Probably $3 million now and even less once my kids grow up.

It'd be probally 5 million plus. I don't know what I'd do all day. I love Poker and all (is poker a sport?), but I don't know what I'd do with all my free time.

I think some Euro Futbol fans might be more hardcore than some Americans but I think a lot of Americans would cost a lot of money to quit watching.

[iggymcfly]

I don't think I'd give them up for any amount. I figure that I'll be able to make as much money as I need from poker within the next few years, and as the saying goes, "money only matters when you don't have it".

[SackUp]

Money can't buy everything - this is one of them for me.

This is up there with the "How much would I have to pay you to take it in the pooper?" The only way that is happening, is if I'm hitting the $1 Billion mark in which case I could help too many people in the world to not take the opportunity. Although, with sports out of my life I wouldn't kill myself... pooper, maybe so.

interesting question.

i can't see giving it up. i certainly hope there's a period of my life where i follow sports much less than i do now, but maintaining at least a passing interest would be necessary.

[z28dreams]

The can't watch your kids play kind of ruins it.

If it was just giving up watching professional sports/college sports, I'd probably do it for around $10k - maybe less.

I just enjoy being together with friends for the bigger games (and I'd miss March Madness a bit)

Oh, and mocking cubs fans.
