Enough about me...

...let's talk about you. What kind of sports are you guys into, if any? C'mon! As a child you must have played something you liked...warball, baseball, soccor, skateboarding, basketball, rugby (

), anything...you name it: i'm interested!

I played baseball in summer leagues...aaah...those were the days. There's nothing like the smell of the outfield grass on a warm day. I miss those days...

Lots of intramural basketball as well...I was one of those kids who just HAD to paint the court lines on my driveway. LOL

Also was in a volleyball league in undergrad...fun stuff especially since it was co-ed

I'm an icehockey goaltender since several years, currently playing in Mannheim, the "MERC" to be exactly ("Mannheimer Eis- und Rollsport Club")

Our first team plays in the highest league in Germany, the DEL (they are named the "Mannheimer Adler" and won the championship four times in the last five years, but lost this year to the Kölner Haie), and we - the second team of the MERC- play in the Regionalliga süd, the fifth league in Germany. I played backup goalie in this team the last two years (together with two others, I am one of the youngsters in the team) and I hope to finally get first goaltender next year (since the current first one quitted and no new goaly is in sight).

That's it about me....

Whoops...forgot to ask before...

What about you Trip? You must be a sports fan to make a thread like this. What sports do you enjoy?

I'm a street hockey guy. I usually don't like sports much in general but I love volleyball (even though I'm bad at it) and street hockey (because I'm good at it).

The only sport I was really into was capoeira... Technically it's a martial art, but it's about all the physical activity I ever volunteered to do for fun.

If it's watching sports, I enjoy car racing. Like rally racing and NASCAR racing, not into F1s though.

Racing, eh? I've never really paid much attention to that, sounds interesting though!

ulrik, I just have to mention this again. You rock! Hockey is the sport of gods! Which brings us to our next movement: Izzy's question! Thanks for asking Izzy! I'm into skateboarding, hockey, and baseball mainly! I was going to start a skateboarding thread, but thought It'd be to general.

Bluefusion...again: hockey rules! Volleyball, eh? Interesting.

Oops, forgot to ask:

WHAT?! No rugby (spelling?) fans here?
