I never really got the hang of sport, and it was compulsory at school.

I was big enough and tough enough to make a go of rugby, but actually liking it, that was beyond reach. A scrum collapse left me with two damaged discs in my neck, and let me discover the joys of chess on wednesday afternoon. If you were on the school team it counted as a sport.

(any truth in the rumour that a lobby group is trying to get poker listed as an olympic event?)

My favorite spectator sport is baseball--it is a thinking person's sport, leisurely and slow paced, no set time limit (just 9 innings), lots of numbers and statistics, quitessentially American. I could watch baseball all the time. I also like to watch soccer, American football, and U.S. college basketball, but not as much as baseball. I could watch ice hockey if they took out the fighting.

GO RED SOX! GO STEELERS! GO PITT PANTHERS!

I really like crosscountry running (a lot more than track). I think it's a really cool, get down and dirty sport that you could get muddy and challenge yourself in. It's a very cool sport, especially for participants (eventhough that nervous feeling rushes over you before a race). I also like futbol/soccer, and I used to be a goalkeeper in 7th and 8th grade. But when I got to high school (9th grade), I had to choose between soccer and running. I chose running, and I guess I'm happy because I've made a new friend, and there's not that many people on the team (awesome aspie conditions). But, I still love them both.

Basketball. I like shooting through a hoop instead of shooting at a net and I like dribbing the ball with my hands instead of with my legs or a stick. However, that doesn't mean I don't enjoy other sports which involve dribbling with my legs or stick or shooting at a net.
