Sports are the best, my life wouldn't be complete without sports! I play basketball, obviously, and watch just about every other sport on tv.

i like to play baseball and football, and like to watch both. now i know that there are some(alot) of people on here from UK and the rest of Europe here..........but.....................I CAN STAND TO WATCH SOCCER!!!!!!!! *Whew* There, i said it. I know that its about as big a food over there, but, for some unknown, strange reason, most Americans cant stand to watch soccer, at least on TV anyway. They have try to start soccer as a major sport in America, but it isnt doing too well. Maybe if we just gave it a chance.......

I like (and watch) about every sport, but I simply love football, I have played it for 11 years, this year I played tennis, but I think I'll restart football again...

I'm for AC Milan (we are the champions, my friends... :grin: ) and for the team in which Roberto Baggio plays. He's the best player in the world...

Among Premiership teams, I'm for Manchester United, Beckham and Giggs were a really excellent couple, but now the "Spicy boy" has chosen Madrid...

I play basketball, and have played for 10 years, something close to that. I'm not really talented, but I like the game, and that's what counts I think. And all my friends play it and have played it since we were little 'uns :P ! So that another thing that binds us you could say ! :Þ

I run Cross Country and Track for my high school and love playing just about any sport on the side. other than running, i'd have to say the one sport i enjoy the most is golf. why? i don't know. it seems so boring, yet i love it.

I love softball, which is the female version of baseball!!!! I used to be on teams when I was little (Go Junior Legion Sharks!!!!!) and then well, I joined the Frosh team when I was in the 9th grade we stunk, plus I never got to play cause in the beginning of the season I stunk (and because of the name game), and the preppie girls on the team hated me. So I quit...I didn't really want to, but I did...I almost regret it because I love the game, and I was getting pretty good at the end of the season! Oh well...

Another "sport" i heart is Four Square! Domination, one square at a time! Muhahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!
