Sabretooth Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 I hate plying sports. Mainly because I suck. But I love watching Football - the real Football, not the screwed up North American version. Ah, it seems I have found my clone! Quite precise, isn't he? I'll pick soccer and forgive you, ol' Darin! But bear in mind, that Football is football and soccer is just some dumb game the Americans try to play (and suck at), so they just grab the ball and battle their way through, because, well, that's what Americans do most of the time. No offence meant, and no flaming either.
Davinq Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 None taken. I just use the term soccer because I put American football up there too, realizing that there would be a lot of americans posters flaming me if I didn't put it up there.
Jeff Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 I'm not really sure, it's kind of a toss up for me. I enjoy playing basketball the best by far because I hate football practice and I suck at baseball but I'm best at football. I really get into whatever sport is in-season out of those 3 so I guess I don't really have a favorite. Though the past few years I've started to lean towards baseball more than I used to.
RC-1162 Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 i'm with Sabre. soccer pwnz. i never did see the point in rugby.
Cygnus Q'ol Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Spectating: Football - (NFL Baby!) GoBears! There's nothing like Soldier Field. Baseball - (GreatAmericanPasttime)MillerPark, WrigleyField, OhYeah! Softball - (CitySoftballtourneys integrate the three B's) Beer, Brats, Ballgames. Basketball (Friday nite Bucks games followed by a romp down WaterSt.) Participating: Softball - No better comraderie than ruling the diamond with your pals. Golf - It's gonna take a lifetime to get my swing corrected. Hoops - My jumper leaves a lot to be desired, but, it's all about ballin'. Television: Gotta watch my BEARS. Sometimes I'll catch a baseball game, if it's of interest. Olympics most definately. Peek in occasionally on the X-games.
mimartin Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 To watch: American Football- College go to every UT (Texas Longhorns) home game and most of the away games. Yes, Jae Onasi I am worried about this weekend. To play: Softball except during football season.
El Sitherino Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Full-contact martial arts. The only real sport.
Davinq Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 Anybody do any martial arts? I've been doing S**to-Ryu Karate for the last 4 years.
Hallucination Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Cricket. It's the only one on the list I find fun. But for sports that aren't on the list I'd have to say 100 metre sprint, just because I'm good at it. I hate plying sports. What's a plying sport?
Jae Onasi Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Taekwondo for 4 years. Got my 1st Dan this spring--very exciting for me, because I started as an adult, suck at sports, and had to fight through a knee injury and come back from knee surgery to even take that test, much less pass. I do forms/kata competitions but not sparring competitions because of the knee problem. I'll spar in class, because my classmates take extra care, but not somewhere where I don't know how good someone's control is. And I can cheerfully put a 350 lb guy on the mats with the self-defense moves and break boards without killing myself.
El Sitherino Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Anybody do any martial arts? I do, and I believe there were several other members who do as well.
Diego Varen Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 I'm not a Sports person (More of a Music person), but I choose Football, because I find that the most entertaining to watch.
Niner_777 Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Soccer, I have to love it. I play soccer five hours a day.
Davinq Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 Soccer, I have to love it. I play soccer five hours a day. 5 HOURS! Damn, you're committed!
Niner_777 Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Yep, five hours a day, six days a week, for the past three weeks. I think we figured that we ran about 150 kilometers in the past three weeks, just in conditioning. Not counting all the drills, and scrimages, and suicides, etc. I think it's going to drop to two or three hours a day with school. My school is very serious about its soccer team, lol.
Davinq Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 My school is very serious about its soccer team, lol. Lucky duck, my school doesn't even have a soccer team!
RedHawke Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 Full-contact golf. The only real sport. Fixed!
St. Jimmy Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 If by football I didn't mean NFL, then what's soccer doing up there? Some places Rugby is considered football and some places AFL is considered football. There are others also.
igyman Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 Meh, I never liked football too much. It's not very interesting to me. I prefer basketball.
Davinq Posted September 7, 2006 Author Posted September 7, 2006 Cricket's okay, just a little to complex and loooooooong for me.
Hallucination Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 <_< >_> Nobody loves cricket? I take it my vote doesn't count?
Sabretooth Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 I take it my vote doesn't count? Eh? Just a hallucination...
Jeremia Skywalk Posted September 8, 2006 Posted September 8, 2006 Out of these- soccer (might be that's beacause out of these i have only played that and basketball). I might be good in american football though, never tried. In general- martial arts and skiing (mountain) are the best sports ever invented. (I officialy go to karate, but, ern... i don't do most of the fighting there)
Char Ell Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 None of the listed poll options. My favorite sport to play and watch is volleyball. I like playing 4-person grass/indoor matches the most, 2-person grass and 6-person indoor matches are tied for second. I used to play 4-person sand but as Anakin Skywalker said, "I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere." I also like to watch American college football.
