Sports You've Played/Still Play

Wow, never heard of some of these sports mentioned!

Heres mine anyhow...

Judo from 10 - 12 never bothered in competition...too young.

Rifle/pistol shooting from 12 onwards. First class shot at 13. I was considered under age, but my dad knew the Rifle Club owner.

Game shooting from 13. Once my dad knew i could handle a weapon he took me to my Uncles farm, being a country lad and all.

Budo Kai. from 16 - 18. Cross between Judo, Karate and Jujitsu with a bit of meditation and healing.

Clay Pigeon from 15, never realy got the hang of it.

Hmm, does chasing cows count??

KickBoxing for the last two years. Nicknamed "Kangaroo", but i am still unsure exactley why cos my punching takes somewhat to be desired!!.

5-7: Soccer.

7-16: Tennis. I was an ultra-borg. Until I stopped winning tournaments, for a while I was cranking up 6 days a week.

16-18: Zen Bu Kan.

Since, I haven't done anything official.

Ice skating - since I was 14, joined the state sync team at 16. Now I just do the performance shows, but I'm really considering going back to the junior champion team in sync, and states in solo events.

Netball - playing on the company team, social mixed netball. Watching my male co-workers running about in a skirt is something I wish I could get out of my mind.

Pinpong - the champion sport of drinking.

8 - 12 Cricket: Terrible with the bat, passable with the ball.

12 - 30 Basketball: Good 15' shot, but no post game, good defender and better rebounder. Was pretty ordinary as a kid but the highest I got was onto the NBL squad for the North Harbour in New Zealand before they got into the Australian NBL. But they didn't want to take a risk on the Kurt Rambis clone. :beatup

Paintball I play this when I can, don't really have the trigger speed for shootouts, but the instincts are there for any of the more protracted events.

Rubgy Union: Being courted to play as a second rower(?), primarily for use in the Line Out. I'm also a decent kick ;)

Australian Rules: Recruited as a ruckman for a local team in Auckland of all places. Only played a season and quit.

sports I've played, well these two torn ACL's remind me of that each and everyday, so I'll skip that.

Sports I PLAY now, that's the topic I like!

Wrestling and boxing! Just ask my GF when I try to get her jeans off, If I think about it, I'm 0-398 so far, but one day I'll win!

Power Lifting! Yep, 16oz do weight alot.

Can't believe no one has mention, ARM CHAIR Quarterback! Yep that's my new sport and I like college football as well! (thanks Ari, for tuning me into that with your UGA rambling a few years back. Now I have to fight for the remote on Saturdays as well.)

Yep, that's about it. Oh, almost forgot, I do think a shower with a significate other can be called a sport. Trust me.

Yeah, especially if you don't get her pants off first. Your purple-headed yogurt flinger has to act as both a drill and a piston. Those are some rough working conditions (now where's that union labor thread...)

To turn the thread serious again....

I'm well into training for a marathon. I used to be one of those sane people who said that anything more than three miles was definitely driving distance. I'm not sure when I lost my mind, but it has something to do with being in Korea. So far my longest run has been 19.5 miles. I'm not setting any world records, but running has actually become fun...Did I mention that I lost my sanity somewhere?
