    Yah, I like soccer too.........I wouldn't go and say I'm a hardcore fan....I just like watching good soccer no matter who's playing....Having said that, I don't really follow any sport . I'd rather be playing than watching. As a kid, I played basketball, road hockey, volleyball, baseball, and played soccer for a local team.......Hell, I did track and field as well..........but I always found it difficult to sit down, and watch a game of anything from start to finish..............kinda like Nascar.....Straight.....left....straight.....left. ...only thing interesting are the car wrecks......But I bet hose racers have a great time on the track

    Soccer (Futbol) is actually gaining a little popularity here in Houston. Our Pro team (Dynamos) won the championship (MLS Cup) last season for the 2nd time. I follow them, a few Mexican squads and a couple of clubs from Brasil from time to time.

    It's not my favorite sport, but enough of my family down there and my Brasilian peeps keep me on my toes.

    My favorite sport is Basketball. I play it/watch it. I'm fiercely loyal to the Houston Rockets. Who, despite losing Yao Ming, are on a franchise-record 16 game winning streak. (we all know how well that was recieved here on the forums...)

    I also am a fan of Capoeira, Brasilian Jiu-Jitsu, & MMA. (Mixed Martial Arts)

    I always wondered why Americans never really appreciated soccer that much. I understand baseball....but man, that is one drawn out game, and less than action packed.....American Football makes up for it though

    I find pro-sports boring. Watching any sport on tv is dull too. I'd rather go to the game or be playing it myself.

    I was really into soccer when I was younger, both my brother and I. And my dad sometimes.

    But then I hurt my knee....and couldn't play anymore. Like I wanted to anyways. The coach was horrible.
    I'm a dog chasing cars. I don't know what I'd do if I caught one. I don't have plans. I just do things. I'm not a schemer.

    I use a knife because guns are too quick. Otherwise, you can't savor all the emotions. You know who people are in their last moments.

    I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you... stranger.

    Oh yea racing. I can watch anything racing besides NASCAR. My fav to watch is drag and F1. If I had the chance or knew how to get into it, I'd be an F1 driver or even an Indy.

    Default so what sport(s) do you do/like?

    I do Fencing, which is a type of sword fighting thing, its in the 007 movie Die Another Day. I'm also quite good at Basketball because of my height. But I'm a Badass Fencer, I could waste Sideswipe lol

    I love playing Laser Tag and Paintball, c-mon who doesn't like a good game of Paintball!

    Not much of a sporty person, but Fencing is good fun and makes ya feel freeking awesome!

    Default Re: so what sport(s) do you do/like?

    Horse Racing, V8 supercars or any other kind of Aussie car racing, I don't mind F1 and Nascar though. I'm partial to American Ice hockey and Baseball, I was so privelaged to be in NYC and Philly for the World series and I luvs my gear I bought for it! I am a little into the local sports we have here like Aussie Rules Fooball and Rugby League, but for the most part I have no interest until Finals are up.

    Im into Wrestling too but it's more entertainment and live comic book-like drama I guess, I know its fake but it's still fun to watch and poke fun at and root for your fave person or side or team or whatever.

    I also love paintball, military war games and martial arts tournaments if you could call them sports or just hobbies and interests.

    The Only thing I'm interested in is Pro Wrestleing, which is Sports Entertainment. I know what you're thinking :Its all fake. Well, the storylines are fake and the wins are pre-determined but the physical part of it is real and it does wear and tear a wrestlers's body.
