Sir, the vast majority of people I prescribe drugs to are those believing hockey is a sport.

Splendid regards,
Hope your favourite pen doesn't run out of ink

Sir,
My favourite pens always run out of ink. That is why I buy re-fills for them.

LOL....I got some good swamp land that is going to make you lots of money or I have a bridge I can sell you cheap.

Kind Regards,
Have a great day,
Sincerely,

Baseball is the only thing I watch. The Minnesota Twins baseball team is the one I root for.

1. Football 40%
2. Lawn tennis (Basically Wimbledon) 19%
3. Athletics 15%
4. Formula 1 25%
5. Curling 1%
What is this 'athletics'? The OP mentioned it too.

Is it like Gymnastics? Or maybe Track and Field?

EDIT: Okay, Wikipedia is your friend, I guess. In America, we call this 'Track and Field'. Seems boring, though. I can watch it on TV at the Olympics, because often records are set.

Something with aesthetics in it, not just speed. And not whacking balls around either.

Figure skating.

When you mentioned figure skating...
In black-and-white TV era there was a sport commentator from Zagreb, who used to cover figure skating for all CBS speaking part of former Yugoslavia.
Her name is Milka Babovic and she is still alive and kicking (*born 1928, like my aunt) former hazena player (*hazena is now extuingished, it was handball played on football pitch), and she compete in athletics (100 m hurdles), sand recently she was in a jury for riality show "Let's dance with stars"!

Well, I remembered her from sixties and seventies when no one had colour Tv in Yugoslavia, she covered figure skating and 90 per cent of her talk was description of dresses and costumes (colours in so many nuances, turquoise being most famous, and that colour is still in some Yugoslav urban idioms.
