What Sports Have You Competed In?
« on: August 01, 2012, 12:21:49 AM »
Just curious about what sports you folks have done, competitive (organized league) preferred, recreational is fine as well.

Ill start with what I've done

Basketball
Baseball
Soccer (Used to play club, still play pickup games whenever I can get the chance)
American Football
Diving
Snowboarding Cross
Snowboarding Slopestyle
Freestyle Wrestling
Greco Roman Wrestling
Track and Field (Longest Sports career I had, did Track for 10 years, Events: 100m, 200m, 4x100m, High Jump, Long Jump, Triple Jump, Discus, Shotput)


The only 3 sports that I can think of doing that I didn't participate in an organized competition in are Table Tennis, Snowboarding Half Pipe, and Skiing

please re-read the topic title, it does not say "Find an excuse to bring up the same pointless argument you are already involved in in another topic."

This is no argument.  Just trying to educate some very misinformed people...  

Are we talking about organized sport leagues or just horsing around in the back yard?

Sport as defined by oxford

"An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment."

Those all qualify under that definition.

Who's this oxford fellow and why is he such an authority on what constitutes a sport?

Organized or just goofing around in the back yard?

I assumed organized. I have played other sports in pick up games or "goofing."
