Default What Sports do you play, watch?

I'm from America.

I usually watch all sorts of sports that appeal to us over here, including American Football, Basketball, and Baseball.

I wanted to be a professional basketball player when I was younger, but I digressed from that path. I do enjoy the things I do on a daily basis now, without basketball in mind, but I still have some years left to be a BBall If I would like to.

Greg and I played a lot of basketball in school together. Usually when it is really late at night because we sucked so badly we could never win "next" on the court.

I can't get into baseball too much, but I'm starting to get into football now after watching two seasons of Friday Night Lights (best show on TV!)

I used to be a swimmer. I still swim but for exercise and fun now.

I follow the Lakers and the NBA. I used to get really into it but a combination of lack of time and too much past heartache has kept me at a safe distance from Kobe and company this year. Though Andrew Bynum and Jordan Farmar are making the team exciting to watch... they're pulling me back in!

Admit Greg, you hate Kobe as much as I do.

What position did you want to play? I always play center because I'm "tall" for a Chinese person. But what I really want to do is to stand beyond the arc and chuck up threes all day without playing defense. Does that make me a bad person?

The next Yao Ming.

Sometimes I watch football but I hardly watch any sports at all unless it's a holiday game or something.

I used to play all the sports I could possibly play. Soccer, basketball, baseball, football, etc. I loved it. Since I graduated from school though, I haven't played any sports.

I rarely watch sports, and then it is usually just the last quarter of the SuperBowl.
I like to ride mountain bikes and kayak. Recently I went indoor climbing, That was fun!

Apart from football (soccer?) I don't follow any other. At least not to see a whole match. And practice... I used to be a terrible Squash player, now I'm not even that. Should start again one of these days.
