Good stuff - makes quite a difference to my choices;

1.) Football
2.) Cricket
3.) Boxing

Difficult question to answer really because I also really enjoy the golf, snooker and rugby union when the major events are on.

I used to watch any sport I could but that was in the day when the amount you could watch on television was very limited. Now, I tend to watch very few different sports but I watch more cricket on TV than any other although I'd be hard pushed to put that before football. Then I do enjoy the hurling from Ireland. So I'll go:

Football
Cricket
Hurling

Motorsport (2 & 4 wheels).

Burnley would slot in at number 2 but football as whole is further down the list.

1. Rugby Union. Enjoy the commitment from the players and the respect for the officials. BT Sport has great coverage.
2. Golf. Enjoy playing but not in the winter in the UK. Rarely watch televised stuff except for the majors.
3. Football. Enjoy watching live games at the ground. Not so keen on televised stuff and wish you could opt for a game without commentary but
with the sound of the crowd. That would be far better than listening to the so called experts opinion of the game.

The amount of people who pick cricket is baffling. Its dreadful imo and test match crowds at County games prove that but different strokes and all that
