Favorite sport - Page 2

Is this poll "Sports fan" related or "sports played" related?

I voted baseball, because I'm a huge fan. But I stink at the game, and am a decent martial artist (whether or not it's a sport is another debate, but it's definitely a "physical activity.")

Well, if you play a sport chances are you like it, so it could go either way.

RoSs_bg2_rox · 04-28-2005, 06:04 PM

I would have said Football a few years back, but these days It'd either be Badminton, or Athletics.

Gxc · 04-28-2005, 09:03 PM

OTHER: Skating.
Everything else is pretty boring.

Field hockey [img]tongue.gif[/img] But hockey is close second.

Zarr · 05-24-2005, 11:14 AM

My favorites are in no particular order: Football (Soccer), tennis and badminton.

I'm surprised that I'm only the second person to say: BASKETBALL!!!

Manchester United offered me a trial when I was 12, about two days after I completely f***ed up my ankle. I cried. But yeah, it's still the king sport.

For sheer spectacle and spirit, soccer woudld be my favourite also. I despise the australian national code (AFL) and Thugbe, so I'm semi-envious of you lucky Europeans where soccer is so much more popular! [img]smile.gif[/img]
Can't say I've the ablity of a BrayF or Kakero though (fascinating stories, chaps) although I played a minor role in a local Futsal (indoor soccer) league a couple of years ago.

For favourite sports to play, I'd go for Table Tennis where I play at an A3 level locally. Playing in a tourney in a couple of weeks in fact.
I also like Mountain bike riding and are a very passionate chess player...but won't touch on the argument of whether or not its a sport or not.

Dance... I don't know if it "counts" in this context, but as far as vigorous physical activities go, dancing is my favorite thing to do. I also enjoy swimming, and used to enjoy skiing immensely... then I stopped skiing for the sake of making sure I could continue dancing. Knee worries, you know.
