Yessss love sport.

I watch AFL (Australian football) a lot, and am looking at picking it up next season for fun. I also watch tennis and am finally getting back into playing it after a few years hiatus. Cricket is good too, partially since it's in my blood to like it hahaha but much prefer ODI and T20 over test matches which I just don't have the patience for.

I'm not the most athletic person but pretty good at tennis. Other sports I just enjoy playing for fun.

I love sports, particularly Boxing and MMA. I especially love the history of Boxing.

However, I've attempted to get into playing sports. I'm awful at most of them. I failed at playing soccer, then ended up being worse in basketball. My pain tolerance has always been low, so I never bothered with boxing. I did attempt to learn martial arts, but it wasn't for me.

Outside of competitive dance my interest in sport is limited. It was always fun to participate but never something I was serious about and while I don't dislike watching sports there's just too many things I'd rather be doing for me to ever really get into it.

I consider Pokemon training a sport, so I understand a 'sport' mentality at least a little (even if i don't do much other sports stuff other than pokemon games if like any at all lol).

I did some-what play sports as a kid, actually, though.....
*is remembering right now* I used to shoot hoops a lot and sometimes play actual basket ball I think? XD Also i tried some other sports with my homeschool co-op. They were fun, from what i remember. I foot raced with friends too^^

I may of also been interested in playing baseball (or softball?) as a kid from what I remember. Never got to play it, though. Probably wouldn't of liked that I couldn't wear a dress so easily for it anyways xD

I love sports. Football (The proper British kind) is my favourite to play and watch.

I also like to go running, cycling, lifting weights and go to the gym.

Not even a little bit.

I find it curious a lot of people flip out when they learn you can be male and not obsessed with sports.

To me, it's the same stereotype of being a woman and not liking dolls or pink or something.

Any specific style of dance?

I believe "Pokemon training" would be considered an eSport.

Assuming you're "American", I'd say that's anti-American! :laugh-squinted:

Well, I like parkour and enjoy watching it, if it counts as a sport.
I wouldn't see why not, unless your definition of "sport" involves large corporate (and State) sponsorships, and/or activities that involve teamwork.

As for myself, though I'm not currently participating in such activities, martial arts are definitely on my bucket list, along with gymnastics, parkour, & dance. That said, I prefer "sports" that focus on individual ability as opposed to emphasis on teamwork.

Also, I tend to stray away from mainstream sports (especially professional), since they tend to be sponsored by large corporations and/or The State, which tends to gentrify the competitive spirit (IMO).

I sorta wish I liked sports. I think I'm too impatient to sit through watching whole games, though @_@ I only played sports when I had to, such as when I was a kid, and in high school I only joined the softball team because I needed a sport and they didn't cut anyone lol.

My first crush from high school played tennis and he got me into it pretty badly.

Then I like Formula 1 because it's an incredibly nerdy sport about lap times and strategies with the added bonus of crashes and rain acting as a wild card that can change everything (now, if only there was more competitivity between teams, as in the late noughts...)

And I'm Spanish so I have to support a football team by law.

I don't really care for sports, but I'll gladly watch Alabama or JSU football. That's basically it lmfao.
