Title: Sports :|
Post by: HTA! on January 10, 2009, 05:42:44 PM
So, most people have a sport they watch or follow.
My question to you guys is what that particular sport is for you.
Football, Soccer, Baseball, and Curling for you Canadians.

Are you a fanatic, do you have a fantasy league etc.?
Or maybe you had a cool experience relating to sports that you would like to tell us.
Show and tell time class.

I hate sports. I have yet to find one that i'm even remotely interrested in.

I do occasionally fish, not exactly sport fishing, though.

I hate sports, especially contact sports. I guess I would hate track and swimming the least, though.

I consider most "professional" sports to be idiotic and intellectually retarding.


However, I enjoy sports that are actually ridiculously reckless and out-of-control, like D.I.R.T. racing.  That stuff is awesome because they literally try to destroy the other cars.  It is unusual for you to see a race where a car isn't flipped over or entirely wrecked.

What about zorbing, what other sport makes it a major rule that you can't eat for several hours before you participate?

Yes, that is also awesome.

I mainly hate sports like football, baseball, basketball...stuff like that.

I can tolerate hockey because it's actually sort of interesting.  Sort of.

I don't really play sports, but my favorite gym activities are...

Swimming
Bad mitten(is that right?)
Tennis
Track/Running
Foot ball

But outside of gym I'll play Disk Golf in the local course any sunny, warm day.

That's why college football players, QB's especially, have over a 3.5 grade point average.

I see no reason why anyone would "hate" a sport they don't play...

My favorite sport is baseball, though I'm not that good at it.
But I like to watch others, like football and basketball.

I do crew, which is more manly than any sport (especially football), but don't enjoy watching sports on TV.

Obligatory sports suck.

Though I will say this much:
I generally enjoy playing various sports with friends, since at that point, for me at least, it's just for fun.  I hate the competitiveness often  involved with sports within school, for a league, etc.

Generally, when something stops being fun to me, it's no longer worth it.  And sports hit that line usually when I'm not just playing with friends.

Lmao watching sports? Its cracks me up, to see people going ape poop for a team that just scored a point. I never got a concept of sitting down on your ass for like 2 hours watching some people play a sport and have your heart racing cause they might intercourse ing loose? Thats why I am not in sports, and I get poop for it all the time. Playing sports I can understand. I just think its gay when people ask you to play and never ignolige you are on there team and only pass the ball to there better friends.

I watch Football. Well not anymore that the Patriots are out of the series.

I play V Soccer as a forward. Can't think of any particularly funny stories at the moment. Um, goal poles hurt, and soccer balls can actually knock you off your feet if an immensely huge person is kicking it?

I meant watching it, not playing it.

That said, I detest playing outdoors.  I love indoor stuff.

I play on my Junior High's Basketball B team
Not that impressive, but I enjoy it =]

Unlike some of the above posters, I absolutely can't stand pick-up games anymore.  I'm tired of the OLOL YOU TRAVELED, or  THAT'S A FOUL YOU SOB  If I'm going to play a sport, I'd prefer it being with officials running it, score being kept track of, etc.

i follow the football where players actually use their feet and the ball is actually round shaped, like a ball

I agree with this, although I still have fun playing pick-up games.

i love playing backyard baseball, pickup basketball, football, street hockey, badminton, and I skateboard and golf for fun. I used to play competive football but I quit cause I got a lot of headaches form practice in intense August and September heat.
I like to watch pro baseball, pro hockey, pro and college football, college basketball (NBA sucks), pro golf, and the summer Xgames for the skatboarding.
