Do you like offensive games or defensive games?

In baseball would you rather see 9-8 game with lots of homers or 2-1 pitching duel?

In football would you rather 41-38 or 6-3?

How about Nba 131-129 or 81-79 & finally 5-4 NHL matchup or 1-0?

Usually prefer defense. Doesn't necessarily have to be low scoring games just defenses getting out of big situations.

Personally, I want to see a good game more then anything else. I have seen hockey games that have been 2-1, but were outstanding because of the scoring chances, hitting & great saves.

At the end of the day, as long as is exciting & there are chances to score, I will take that over a high scoring game where there is 0 defense being played.

Being a Giants fan, I want offensive game in baseball. I know I'm gonna get plenty of 2-1 and 3-2 games.

Love high intensity defensive games in all sports, as long as its quality eg. great defence and subpar offence......with that said though variety is the spice of life, only enjoy them so much because games like that don't come along all the time, maybe if they did I wouldn't like tham so much.
