What sport do you like, follow, play or dislike, or is there a sport that you dont think should be a sport in the first place.




I love tennis the most, But I dont play it anymore unfortunetly. I cant find any club to play it. The clubs always get closed down or are full. Or the nets get stolen.

I do squad swimming once a week, it is so hard, like really really hard. So tiring, but keeps me fit. It is annoying going because I know my coach will kick my ass in the water.

I dislike badminton and cricket. They are so boring, badminton is a rip off of tennis, and is really weird to watch. Cricket is just torrture standing in the sun for 6 hours.

I used to also play soccor and baseball. I do not play it anymore.


I follow the NRL. I am a Parramatta Eels fan. Now NRL is a sport unlike darts and pool. I mean what on earth is going on with darts and pool being a sport. What physical fitness is needed? You just but a tiny ball with a stick and throw darts and a board like 10 meters away. That is embarrassing.

anything involving strategy and skill in movement i find healthy for the mind/body and very fun (and even aesthetically appreciable), but when i get all caught up in the competitive aspect i feel a little silly. :P it's all in good fun though. i grew up playing basketball and rooting for my district's football team; i don't keep up with national sports events as much as i used to, but the few times i catch a game i can't keep my eyes off the screen xD

I love to play sports on teams because I find teamwork to be fun in general. I play basketball and soccer (used to play baseball, but it wasn't my forte). I watch hockey, baseball, European soccer (go Chelsea!), and the occasional basketball game.

I hate American football. It is pointless and shouldn't be called a sport.

I don't follow any sports in particular. I enjoy playing badminton, tae kwon do and bowling. I don't like any sports in particular, though.

I hate teamwork. It's code for "making you work with a bunch of incompetent fools".

i think that's a bit judgmental, there's a lofty level of psychological understanding, strategic skill, physical technique, and emotional management required in serious competitive sports (involving teamwork or not)- it's pretty fascinating if you take a deeper look into it all. sure your average high-school jock's ego can be a little inflated, but i wouldn't go as far as calling all athletes incompetent people...i can name several who have shown an admirable degree of sophistication and humbleness.

and why shouldn't football be considered a sport? :/ there's a ton of physical exertion involved, and plenty if not all of the skills i mentioned above :o

I love sports, but I'm lazy and would rather be playing a game than a sport, even though I know that one's worse for my health more consistently. XD;

Baseball, basketball, football, soccer, hockey (can't skate, but I love playing broomball and floor hockey), tennis (I suck, though XD), badminton, rugby, etc. You name it, I've probably watched or played it. ;D

Just football (Refusing to call it 'soccer', kthx) for me.

I follow it and have been to a few football matches, I keep an eye out for two teams' results but I wouldn't class myself as a fan or supporter of either.

I've attempted to play it but alas, I wasn't blessed with decent coordination so it didn't go well.

Football (Umm yeah, soccer) is what I mostly play and watch. I also play table tennis and a little bit of tennis and badminton too. In general, I play every sport and love it.

I love soccer and badminton. I used to play soccer back in middle school, which was one of those periods in my life I'd rather forget. But back then, soccer was my favorite outlet for my frustrations. <3

I love badminton a lot because I got to play it with my friends in high school. We were all in different grades and for the most part different classes, so gym class was one of the only periods we got to see each other. And our gym class got really into the badminton unit. It was so much fun. :D

I guess I should mention handegg football too. Hate to watch it but actually like to play it a lot. :3 ...now I feel like running around outside or something. ._.

I think all human beings are incompetent fools.
Then I sincerely feel for you. ):

I play and watch football (soccer), so that's probably my favorite sport. I also play a lot of tennis, especially when I was a kid, but I never watch any of the games.

Football, football, football, football, football, football, football, football, football and football (the real deal football, not those sports that are called so but they're played with an egg-shaped baloon that is on the players' hands all the time). I love it and would like to be a player if I actually had skills for it. XD But I love to watch it.
Badminton and tennis are fun too, but I rarely play those (only in P.E.) and I also don't watch those.

Oh I forgot to say that I was on a cross country team. But now the only sport I do is swimming. I am desperate to play tennis again. I used to be so sporty and fit....
