The Sport Thread

I just realized, after a bit of searching, that there is no such site like this one!

WHAT SPORT DO YOU PLAY?

Post about sports you've played in the past, sports you wish you were good at, sports you play currently, sports you've always wanted to try, etc.! Post your best times and scores, too! (Please note that I'm not talking about TV or video game sports, so this is not the place to post about the Phillies or Madden 06.)

I'll start it off. I'm on the Freshman crew team at my school (which is a race, in a BOAT!), unusually enough. It seems to be an uncommon sport, with not many schools in the area that participate. I'm actually pretty good for not being a great athelete in general. I row a 2k in just under eight minutes, that is. Not bad!

I used to play baseball and track. I loved track a lot, mainly because it was very social; all my friends were on the team. But now I've switched schools and sports. Maybe I'll be against one of you ZU people one day! Watch out for me!

(Another Note: After I made this thread I realized it might/should be in a different forum, like entertainment. Sorry if I was wrong!)

I played football, baseball and basketball but sports got in the way of videogames and Anime

I play football and Cricket............
but I don't really have the time anymore.

I played baseball for a few years. And what the heck is crew? Do they like help out with the sports? Like a stage crew? I'm so confused.

I play golf. Difficult, and very frustrating sport. I like to play football with my friends occasionally, but alas, I lack skill in almost every sport known to man.

Crew is rowing. Like in a boat. Very expensive boats; I could buy a Chrysler Town and Country with the money.

If I liked that car.

Anyways, I'll put that in the first post.

Play Basketball and track. Football is alright, but baseball is too boring for me.

I am currently on the high school wrestling team. I hate it because it is boring and can't wait untill the season is over so I can go back to Muay Thai kickboxing and Brazilian Jui-jitsu. I am also going to sign up in a boxing school soon.

Swimming, I am practicing it alot. Another of my dreams is too compete in the summer Olimpics. Its a long shot, but you have to believe to get to your dreams. I dont play or do another sport so much. Last summer, I played football,hockey,soccer and basketball. I stinked a lot at basketball. Lots of times I let my team down. So it was the sport I played the least.

I was going to try out for track this year, but on the day for try outs, I forgot all about it. XD I'm trying out for track next year, and hopefully I won't forget to go to try outs after school next year. =D

I might try out for cross country as well.

<3 Running.

I play basketball everyday on my spare time and when I am bored. This year I played 8th grade football for my school and my played as an offensive lineman. I was a right or left guard and I was pretty good too. I'm considering playing football in High school but I am not sure. I am also considering being in Track this year because I ran a mile in P.E. in 7 min. 59 sec. This was my fastest time for running a mile.

I go skiing, and sometimes football at school. That's all that's popping to mind right now.

I say go for the Olympics. Think of it this way: everyone has a long shot, not just you. Ya gotta get in the mindset, man! Good luck.

I just swim, play basketball because I am so tall, and play volleyball. I'm super good at volleyball! Also I LOVE to swim. I don't like basketball all that much, but I'm tall so I am good at it..... My favorite thing to do is swimming though!

Yay, track season starts soon! Yes, I'm on the track team at school. I usually run 800-1600 meter races, but I hope to start high jump this year so I'll be good when I grow more (I'm nearly 6 feet). In addition to track, I'm in a weightlifting class at school, I guess that would be considered a sport cause it's athletic, but we don't compete. I really wish I could play soccer, cause that's the popular sport at our school. Oh well, I'll just stick to Fifa...

Now that you mention track, I remembered that I used to by on a track team! It was more fun than baseball. I wan't too bad at th elong jump, 14'7" being my personal record, but that was during a practice. Ah, those were the good ol' days. I remember my coach yelling, "Do an iron fence!"

That was the term for running around the perimeter of the school's athletic fields, which were bordered by an iron fence. It was probably about 1000 meters.

Though it isnt a "normal" sport, I am a martial artist. I have been in the arts since about age 4. I made it to the rank of 2nd degree blackbelt. Probably my most proud achievement.

I play tennis. I've been playing for 2 years and a bit. Very fun sport indeed. I used to play soccer when i was like 9 and 10, and i also used to swim. But i'd rather tennis any day. Though when it's hot i'd rather a nice relaxing swim with my friends.
