    Does anyone play any sports on here? I'm on my high school swim team. I love playing tennis, but I'm not on any team, I just play against friends. Basketball is fun too. Anyways, what sports do you like to play?

    I don't care for any sports, really.

    If I were to play any, I would opt for tennis. I'm not good at it at all, but I think it's pretty fun. Swimming (casually) is always a great time for anyone.

    Things like Football or Basketball completely bore me, though. The only time I'll watch a football game is when I'm with my school's marching band. No offense to any sports fans out there!

    Badminton is pretty fun, too! I'm not that bad at it. c;

    I'm really not into sports. Last time I played any, I was playing at gunpoint in PE. Well, not gunpoint, but the threat of flunking the class. That was back in 8th grade, and so it's been a few years...

    I suppose I might play some things casually if I had a friend who insisted.

    I will swim for exercise, and, at one point, half toyed with doing US Masters competition. But that was a long time ago. I also have played a bit with diving (diving board type, not visit sharks with huge fang type).

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. :slight_smile:

    Alpine Skiing all the way. I freaking love downhill biking as well, even though I only do it a few times a year. I can't afford my own downhill bike so I have to hire one when I wanna ride and that's also pretty expensive.

    The only sport I really enjoy watching on TV is tennis, and I still don't do that very often at all. I prefer to play.

    I used to Row and play soccer, so I enjoy those. I actually enjoy playing most things... maybe not so much baseball or basketball, but I always had fun doing pick up football games.

    I love soccer and alpine (downhill) skiing. I don't mind shooting archery or playing badminton either. I love watching basketball, American football and horse racing.

    I'm a bit of sports fanatic. In high school I swam competitively, played soccer and basketball and did track and field and alpine skiing and snowboarding. I played college ball for a bit and still play soccer and run. I also love a good, rough game of hockey :slight_smile: Basically, I love playing sports.

    Tennis, mountain biking, skiing (not too fond of glade skiing though), road biking, badminton, ping pong, roller skating (if that's a sport).
    I've also heard that walking in heels should be considered a sport... :grin: I'm not sure I agree, but it certainly takes practice.

    how about none because i grew up with family don't care much lol.

    and it's also annoying when almost every male you meet ask you the first few questions as "what sport do you play?" I can't answer that >_<

    Funny thing, but I've never been asked that I can recall.

    Perhaps I appear less straight than I'd thought.

    Ticklish Fish, I suppose sports are an ice breaker. But it's not a question that ever came my way... Maybe because I seem gay, and straight men assume a gay guy wouldn't know anything about sports. Or, for all I know, sports are more of an ice breaker in your corner of the world than mine. Who knows?

    It also might also be me somehow directing the conversation. I don't find meeting new people easy, and so sometimes I have a line of conversation set up, ready to launch. That might derail any talk of sports.

    Yes. Starcraft II, League of Legends, and Counter Strike derivatives are all considered sports.

    The only sport I really enjoy playing is volleyball. But I do love to watch football. The American kind, that is. I hate soccer.
