Anyone here into sports at all?

NFL, NBA, cricket, soccer, baseball, something, anything? I know many gamers don't have any interest whatsoever in organized sports, but I also know a few who do. I figure this is a pretty active community with a fair number of members, the odds are I can't be the only person here who knows what a flea flicker is.

So come forth, sports enthusiasts! I know you're here, damnit.
 
I only really like AFL and tennis.

I would really like to join some sort of team game for exercise but none of my friends are interested. /foreverunfit

Yup, I know what flea flicker is. :P



I'm mostly into Soccer and Basketball, but I still know a ton about American Football cause my brother shoves it down my throat. I watched a lot of the NBA during this all star weekend as well. Probably most thing in sports I'm excited for is the World Cup. I have to wait a whole year and a couple months though. :(

I've played some; but not so oft indeed; what about "sports' games!" at all?

Thanks Sanaki. Your posts always make sense.

I actually wanted to start doing something like that too, a few cousins and myself started playing basketball every week but then winter came along and ended that. It was amazing, we'd play for a couple of hours and then I'd be sore for like 3 days. Really displayed my lack of athleticism, but it felt good to be doing something that counted as exercise.

If I was rich the first thing I'd do would be to have an indoor court installed. Playing sports makes you forget you're working out and they can be fun- which I can't say about running on a treadmill staring at the same piece of wall for an hour.

I commend your brother for his dedication to the noble sport of el futbol americano. Any favorite teams? I watched a lot of the all star weekend as well, mainly the celebrity game and the dunk contest, though the 4th quarter of the real all star game was pretty intense and there were some good highlights throughout.

The World Cup is the only time I really follow soccer, it's a sport that requires too much patience for me lol. I will say that watching a really good team is entertaining at times though, like poetry in motion. Last Cup I think my favorite team was Germany, from the way they moved the ball.
 
I actually have a muscular condition with my arms so i suck at football. ( except QB ironically, if the ball is light enough I have good aim)




Same thing with Basketball I got skills, but not the strength and stuff. I"m kinda mad that soccer would be the one sport I could really play, but I got crappy soccer skills and the sports I'm decent at skill-wise are in my uncomfortable department. :P

Yes; Mr. GreyHelm; I apologize for it; but "are ye serious or joking?"
 
I'll support any NY team no matter the sport, and if my teams aren't playing, then I will support the East Coast. The ONLY exception to that, would be the LA Dodgers, and that is only because they used to be in Brooklyn.

That said, I was happy that the Ravens won the Super Bowl, but the 49ers played better, especially after the black out when it seemed as though the Ravens were asleep until the last quarter.

I used to be a tomboy when I was younger, until I woke up one morning as an 11 year old girl, with 2 grapefruits under my shirt.. after that, I had to trade in my mask, bat and mitt for a set of pom poms because the boys I used to play with, had other things on their mind.. it was either become a cheerleader, or constantly get into trouble for fighting them.
 
I like watching the summer and winter Olympics. I mostly like watching team sports like hockey, soccer, and basketball. Racing sports like foot racing, bicycle races, speed skating, etc are also pretty fun to watch.

I wish I could go skiing or snow boarding since going down a mountain of snow is fun when I tried skiing and snowboarding on school field trips which were funnest school field trips I been to.

NY solidarity. I hope for your sake you weren't watching the knicks pacers game... made my eyeballs want to vomit.

So weird thing, I was actually drinking grapefruit juice when I read the line about your 11 year old discovery. Almost spat a mouthful out onto my laptop, had to LOL.
