I discovered you can't sync Calendars that are not in an XML format (eg most or all of the 'interesting calendars'). I got this from another site..

The Google limitation is that if the Google Calendar does not have an .XML format, then the Android phone won't show it at all apparently. There's lots postings on the Google support site about this .XML calendar thing and the best work around is to import the Yahoo or other calendars that support it.

and a workaround:

You need a yahoo account; log in, go to Yahoo Sports, to the league of your choice, to the team of your choice, to Score & Schedules (the one *under* the team banner, not the one closer to the top of the page), to Add to Calendar, to Synch with Google and then follow the clear instructions. You will be taken to Google Calendar; hit Refresh and then look on your phone.
