I'm not really into team sports as I was never any good at them but I did enjoy the school sports we did at the special school, like the running.

Watching I don't mind the summer Olympics but because of the time zone we only get the highlights not the live coverage.

The intelligence, the creativity, and the over-riding sense of fair play by the competitors, of course!


Ok, we'll go with that. :wink:

Oh and so that you don't get curious about the sports I participated in, I am or was a swimmer for around 6 - 7 years. I did go to a couple of swimming competitions, and I won on average 5th or 6th place (there were a max. of six swimmers in the swimming pool, for your information). Oh well it's the thought that counts :) . Finally the reason why I quit swimming, was due to exam pressure and the feeling that there's not enough time for me to do swimming any longer. I'm currently recovering from a stroke at the moment, so I might retake swimming in the future as a personal hobby.

I've always been into athletics since I was a kid. Played baseball, basketball, street hockey, backyard football, did competitive swimming for many years. These days I mostly lift weights and run. I used to watch a lot of basketball when the Bulls had their dominant stretch, as well as when Kobe first entered the league, but don't watch at all these days. I'll still tune in to an NFL game every now and then. As someone who has done all kinds of athletics, I have respect for those who can play sports at the highest level.

I do enjoy sports both from a player perspective as well as a spectator. Though when it boils down to it, I'd rather play sports than watch them.

I don't enjoy playing any sports, but I do like to watch baseball to keep score. I don't pay much attention to the individuals and teams though, which is what most people seem to talk about when they talk about baseball, in fact when I was younger I didn't even realize that was something people did. I also like to watch golf because the courses are so beautiful and sometimes interesting birds and animals show up.
