    I did karate (soo bahk do) until I got the 2nd notch on my red belt then we moved. I also did slow pitch softball when I was younger, and fast pitch when I was in high school. While I'm not a gymnast, I did do dance and did cheerleading at a tiny high school (not even 1A, 100 kids prek-12th max.)

    I mostly did a lot of art though :P

    It was in comparison to soccer.

    Volleyball. I was in the high school team and to this day it's the no1 thing I like to do. Too bad there are no clubs around the area I'm in, I'd love to go and play amateur a few hours every week.

    I seriously like it more than gaming/reading/TV.

    >.< it has nothing to do with being a "tough guy" judo is literally "the gentle way" the hardest part about Judo is the warmup.

    Went to a small high school without too many options so I played soccer and moved around the defensive line as necessary. Filled in as keeper a few times as well.

    Does Marching band count as a sport? We had competitions. If so then my position was Euphonium/baritone.

    Football, wide receiver . The only reason the coach liked me was because I was exceptionally fast. But I could not catch the ball worth a shit. So I did not last long at it. Was not disappointed after I got tackled once and had the wind knocked out of me. I was pretty good at 100 yard dashes, running them in less than 11 secs. But once again, because my family moved a lot as migrant farm workers, I never got to stay very long at any school more than one year.

    I played soccer in high school. My position was "benchwarmer" and occasional "moron who doesn't know how to play soccer."

    My school didn't have gym class, so everyone had to play two years of sports. I did JV soccer. Hated it. I've never been a sports guy. The idea of chasing a ball around never really entertained me. Can't play, can't watch. Just, not interested in it whatsoever.

    I was a swimmer in high school. My position was wet, mostly.

    200 free was my main event, also did 100 back and was on 1-2 relay teams per meet. I also did the 500 free when I couldn't talk my way out of it.

    On several occasions I wanted too. But I know my brother already put a heavy financial strain on my parents with his sports. Each year they struggled to pay for his sign up, the equipment rentals and the physical. Add to it that I knew that the constant practices would ruin it for me, and I just never did. I wanted to play the game. Not run up and down a field for 15 minutes.

    I saw the marching band kids do a gauntlet formation in practice once...one of the most brutal dogpiles I've ever seen. It's definitely a sport.

    None of these. Played Tennis and Outrigger Canoe in high school in Hawaii. Tennis I played singles and outrigger I was usually more towards the middle.

    Started playing baseball when I was seven. Played until high school. Mostly pitcher and catcher. Was also on a weekend bowling league for a few years. Just before I quit baseball I played football for one season as left guard. I also played basketball and volleyball through some public leagues for 4 years. In Junior High my friend and I convinced the football coach to start a golf team so I played that for one year. In High School I ran cross country for one season but had to quit because of shinsplints. Did diving for one season but had to quit because I got sinus infections from the water. At that point I gave up on school sports and started doing Kickboxing and Jiu-Jitsu. I've done that since 1995 and made it my career. As part of my kickboxing I also tried to join a gymnastics school but the coaches said I was too tall.

    On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.
