I don't match the "clumsy and poor motor coordination" thing AT ALL.

Skiing and Snowboarding are great! I like motorsports like Snowmobiling and 4 wheelers. I have 3 Kawasasaki Jet-skis and I learned everything about watercraft. I could probably take one apart and put it back together blind.

As for cheaper sports...

Hockey was the first and remains a favorite game for me.
Anything that can be played on a sand bar at low tide also qualifies.

Used to be into martial arts, particularly Muay Thai. It's essentially kickboxing, but elbows and knees are allowed.

Never took it so seriously as to compete, but it still kept me from getting bullied through high school :)

Think of starting again next semester (had to stop this semester because it didn't fit with my university schedule...).

I watch Wimbledon, every Summer. I don't really watch it for the Tennis, though. I watch it as an excuse th see some footage of London in a way that isn't so obvious. :lol:

I like playing soccer, baseball, and tennis. I also enjoy bike riding, running, and swimming. I apparently have some skill in volleyball, too.

i'm a huge hockey nut. i love to play hockey. and guys who play hockey seem really hot in my opinion, they're all so sweet and down-to-earth and not as aggressive as they can seem on the ice :)

I'm new, but I wanna post!

My favorite sport to play is volleyball, and I like to watch racing (if it's officially a sport) and football.

I'm not clumsy, as someone else said. I do like cheerleading, but it's so hard. I like the dancing and the yelling and jumping and such (it's a great anger outlet) but I don't like the way the girls always have to be friends with each other. Whenever I would try out for it I wouldn't look in front of me and I would count while I danced. Some people just aren't made for it I guess.

My favorite sport would be "none of the above" - which, sadly, isn't a choice. :cry:

I prefer to read. :D

Marching Band, and anyone who thinks that is not a sport is saddly mistaken, we train four days a week for five hours a-day on aspalt. That is more than twice what the football team trains. Plus, the amount of money that the marching band brings in is at least four times what all the sports teams put together yet the bloody school board takes the majoraty of the money we make and gives it o the bloody football team and Im ranting again.

I'm not good at sports at all. I've only been on one sports team- cross country(I don't like team sports- too much social interaction) earlier this school year, and I sucked when I first started. I got last in every race except the one in Cassville, when I was really pissed at this guy for teasing me while I was running. I ran my heart out and would've tied with this person who got last (I dived head-first into the finish line :lol: ). I looked funny when I did, so says my coach. But my times got better each time. I don't know if I should run next year. What do you think?

Oh. I chose swimming as my favorite sport because it feels good to swim.

I LOVE BASKETBALL. Im not to great, but its so much fun. I can shoot the ball well and can almost dunk. Also, Chris, dont quit Cross Country if you enjoy it, i had a friend from pakistan this year who was horrible, he had done cross country for years, but we bet him a pizza if he could break 30 minutes on a 3.1 mile course. Even though thats no real accomplishment, for him it was, and was worth working for.

Team sports would be better if most people didn't let them get to their heads. I suffered immensly from overbearing jocks and snobs in my school years. It was nothing for 4 or 5 of them to come up to me and spit on me or kick me right in front of the teachers....who did nothing.

I like extreme sports like skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, hydroplane racing, and personal watercraft riding. I used to like hockey but the recent NHL thing has completely turned me away from it now.

With respect or lack thereof for overbearing jocks.. I studied kick boxing and Jiujitsu. One night a couple basketball players with their varsity jackets and plastic girlfriends tried to invade my 165 lb personal space. It's really too bad they underestimated me. I kicked one in the head and then in the back of the knee. The other guy I went to rail and hit his beer bottle out of his hand. 4 people wrestled me to the floor before I could do anything else. When I got escorted to the door I yelled out to him "does this look like highschool to you, fool?". No, I can't say I have much respect for team atheletes. However, it always seems like the ones who play the non-contact sports like soccer and baseball are the cockiest. Some of my friends are football and hockey people.

The only sports i've really been interested in is snooker, and cricket a bit. (I love working out all the angles, on the snooker table and the silence at a snooker match. It has always been a favorite of mine since i was about 4.
