    Any sports you like watching/playing in particular? Anything you USED to play/watch but have stopped for some reason?

    For me, the biggest one was basketball. I used to play all day every day, played for the 'state' and so on. But then I took an injury to the knees and basically stopped any further progression. I tried to push through a little bit, but that made the injury so bad that I know have permanent damage and as a result probably can't really partake in it ever again!
     
    I grew up a big soccer fan(we call it football here!) My dad and grandad were both very big into it and watched and attended matches of the team we support, so I kinda got into it through them, but it's the most popular sport here and was popular with all my friends too, so it was sort of unavoidable lol.
    I used to play quite often as well - nothing serious and not for official teams or anything, more just like kick abouts with friends and weekly 5-asides/7-asides, but I'm getting older and becoming less athletic so haven't played in a while. I just stick to occasional hiking for my outdoor exercise now.
     
    I used to play basketball as a kid, for a good decade. I'll still watch a game on TV if I happen to catch one on, but it doesn't happen very often.
    I quit playing as there was too much emphasis on performance at that point and I just played for fun.
     
    I watch:
    -Baseball (Astros, Angels and Padres fan)
    -Soccer (Major League Soccer/Dynamo fan, World Cup)
    -Olympics (both summer and winter)

    Used to watch a TON of NASCAR, but the rules changed so much I had a hard time keeping up. I do keep tabs on my favorite drivers (Denny Hamlin and Martin Truex Jr.)

    I played softball as a little girl. Wanted to play in high school but did not make the cut for Varsity. Played Badminton during my first year but left to focus more on studies. Did some swimming (breaststroke and backstroke) throughout middle school/junior high, but not for competition.

    Today, I dance. Is that a sport?
