I am going to go with February. I mean you got the Super Bowl, the best day of the year for sports fans. College basketball, the NHL, and the NBA are all heating up as the season draws to an end and the playoffs draw nearer. Every four years, you also got the Olympics to watch. Not to mention, February is the month that the SI Swimsuit Issue comes out.


I say May...you have the NFL Draft happening, you have the end of the year for the NHL, end of the year and beginning of the playoffs for the NBA, and you have the MLB season starting. You also have most of the March Madness tourney.

This is a good month for sports fans, and this is a pleasing month to a lot of people. The weather starts getting better, and school is wrapping up.

A lot of Febuary is cold. Plus, college basketball isn't as exciting in Febuary as it is in May. The NHL and NBA are starting the playoffs, where everyone seems to actually try and give it their all.

The Olympics don't really make that much of a difference. In May, you also have the Stanley Cup, which is an exciting time for NHL fans.

This is the best month for sports, and sports fans.


The NFL draft is in April. How can you say that the Olympics doesn't make that much of a difference. The Olympics are one of the only events that is truly a worldwide athletic event. I mean they call the World Series champions the world champions but are they really WORLD champions. No. The Olympics does truly crown world champions. And besides how can you beat the SI Swimuit Issue?


I messed up...here is a win for you. Sorry.

August (or maybe September), because football starts back. Everything else is insignificant to me in comparison.

Dyhard typoed May instead of March which is the only way his argument would make sense unless he spiked his koolaid.

Actually...kidding aside. Looking at this TD title I'm thinking its May too.
You have 2 of the big 4 leagues going into a Playoff and another in MLB firing up! Sure the fall offers football, but the playoffs are better for sports overall. So I am going to the Right---------H------------<>point.

Dyhard...right Idea, wrong month. You meant April! And April is, in fact, the best all around month for sports fans.

"Dyhard typoed May instead of March"

No, he meant April, which is the correct answer.
