Don't have the time/energy/mates who like football to play football in York :(

I watch football and Formula One. I know a little about F1 but, despite being a Charlton Athletic season ticket holder, know nothing about football. I'd rather know nothing and know it than know nothing and think I was God's gift to football trivia though - like some people I know.

Play? None. I mean, I exercise but I still associate sport with the trauma that was PE.

I'm a defensive midfielder. Really used to piss my friends off by being able to run end to end for a full 90 minutes. I'm one of those buggers that is always in your face and challenging for every ball.

Not very tall, mind, but I'll still go for every header.

Spectate: MMA

Play (train really): MMA

Never got into any others, started JKD 12 years back and then moved to MMA in about 2007.

Hell of a sport compared to when I started.

Rugby, Formula1, Tennis, Soccer, MotoGP, NFL, Basketball

Play:

Football
 
I think I'm going to keep playing sports till I hit 60, then I might just play golf. I dislike aerobic exercise and going to the gym, so I find it a lot easier to play sports and do free weights. I absolutely hate jogging as a form of exercise, it's not my thing.

The missus is watching the American version of the apprentice on the iPlayer.

It's......very American.

I'm always curious about that, it was their idea and it doesn't seem to get any respect from USA GAF. Do we just bring a little more class to our 'reality' tv?

New page new question:

What sports do you spectate and play?

Spectate: football, international cricket, six nations rugby, f1

Play: volleyball, football, golf

Play: Football, American Football, Tennis, Golf, Cricket, Baseball/Rounders, Basketball

Spectate: Football, finals of most major sports but nothing else

I haven't played in an organised sports league for about 2 years now though so it hard to get one of the team sports game going. I love playing Tennis in the summer, right around Wimbledon. I started Snowboarding last year and i'm hoping to get into Surfing soon. UK is pretty pants for it apparently.

My little brother is unbelievably good at football, better than I was at his age. I think he has a really good chance at doing what I couldn't and turning professional. I'm debating whether to stay at home/close by to help him develop.

The West Country is pretty good, in particular Newquay is supposed to be the surf capital of Britain. I used to surf once a fortnight at uni. The UK's not bad amongst its European brethren, but it is indeed lacking with regards to the US and the southern hemisphere.
 
Don't play any. Played football as a kid, it was the done thing. Bored me to tears. Shit at sports generally, always have been. Awful at tennis, cricket, rounders, running (sprint or distance), badminton (I enjoyed it though), basketball etc.

Except rugby, was something approaching slightly okay at it. Was an okay swimmer in principle, but my cardio was never up to scratch to be decent at it.

Would like to try golf someday, and I like cycling, but never done it as a sport. Did Jujitsu for years though. Archery when I tried it seemed fun I suppose. Need to get back into the gym, but thats not a sport as such.

Don't watch any sport, again it bores me to tears. I might occasionally make an exception for massive sporting events. Even then I'll only watch it in the background.

Win by a pin, a lead of over 6 points in a round, or the most points over a 3 round period, or your opponent loses his erection.

Some advice to all you guys - take a course on massage.

It'll pay dividends.

I've never seen lomi lomi massage before though. This need investigating.

I don't actually know where GAF mods would stand on me linking to instructional videos on erotic massage. It isn't porn, but it definitely could serve that purpose.

Let's err on the side of caution.

If you wanna watch porn, go on Bing Videos/FindTubes.

Let's not get the thread closed again.
