Baseball is boring if you didn't grow up with it (how interesting would you expect test cricket to be to yanks?).
Basketball can be interesting strategically but the problem is the result of most possessions is almost always irrelevant to the outcome. As a result only the last 5 mins of the game is ever exciting.
Hockey I don't know much about but its kinda niche and unlike the NFL the learning curve isn't picking up the rules, its learning to even see the puck move.
American football is a strategically rich game where you can understand and appreciate great players, and it has epic fails, epic comebacks, refereeing controversy, coaches who don't understand basic probability and do insane things, and a cast of players who say and do insane things on and off the field. Basically its all the drama you can eat. Then if you get into it there's college football waiting as backup.
Don't watch a team just start watching the game.
