I played football for a year in high school, and had our coach not been a conditioning nazi I could've gotten a lot more out of it. I play some pick-up basketball, even though I'm terrible at it I still enjoy it. I play A LOT of pool and foosball in my spare time, and go bowling when I get time and can find people to go with me. Probably the two sports I enjoy most, though, are fishing and mud racing (if you've seen my truck in my profile picture, you know why).

I decided to take the box back to the bakery and show the manager. He gave me the finger. (adapted from a joke by Jay London)

I forgot to mention that I'm in weight-lifting.

I don't usually watch sports on TV though (except for robot wars). :huh:

They "bowl" not "pitch". They hit the ball with the bat. They run between the "stumps" to get runs or they hit a boundary (a 4 or a 6). They get out by not being in a "crease" when the ball hits the "wickets" or by the ball being "bowled" through the "stumps". The crease thing is kind of like baseball and bases.

Wouldn't it be easier just to say "Soccer?"

And yes, Soccer is fun.

It is if you are good with your feet, I on the other hand trip on the ball and make a total loser of myself when I try to play soccer. :(

That doesn't mean you can't have fun.
Don't give yourself a hard time dude.

Anyway, post about a sport that you're good at.
