« on: May 08, 2011, 04:12:14 PM »
I was wondering,
I know us furry's have a bit of a stereotype going on of overweight Socially inept people.(Just to name a few) >:(
To disprove atleast part of the stereotype i state my question, do you do any (team)sports?

I missed the tryout for the Junior team for basketball in September 'cause of injuries but I managed to make the U16 team at my school, and we've been having pickup games and /or tounements pretty frequently.

I also just signed up for Baseball again which I'm super excited about, that should start up in Early to Mid June. :D

Outside on a winter's night as the rain begins to fall
There's a chill in the air and the howl of a wolf while the rain beats at the door
Seven kings will ride on the wind up towards        the mountains high                             
And the only sound that will break the air is the warrior's bitter cry

-Starfire by Dragonforce.

For those who know me I'm still kicking around here, enjoying life. For those who don't know me I do invite you to get to know me if you'd like :3.

I do a bit of banger racing over here in the UK. There are 3 of us racing so it is a team.
I used to play as a goalkeeper for a local soccer team as well, and a bit of fishing... but thats not a team sport.

Mavericks are a blight of the world, and its my job to eradicate them.

Seems like a lot of u guys (no girls  :?) play sports or team sports.
I myself cycle 2 or 3 times in the week and have been trying to get into running. Used to run every other day but when i got my new job i didn,t have the time or energy so i quit.
Right now i cycle 110km trips in the weekend and 30/45km during the week. I like triatlons and i am i good swimmer so maybe train for that?  :D

But yea, right now only cycling.....

i can't stand team sports because when I tried 'em as a kid I would always mess up the game and make my team lose and proceed to get beaten up :/ at least in solo sports when I fail, i'm only failing myself XD

I fit that stereotype perfectly.

I don't do team sports because I don't like working in groups and I don't do sports in general because I'm just lazy.

Howdy, Nice to know weve got some athletes here!

I'm a bit of an athlete myself. As a kid I played soccer and baseball (but then again so did every other kid in america). I got pretty competetive in soccer and played until freshman year in HS. Then I found football and loved it. In high school I played football, ran track (and did the triple jump for field), but my favorite sport was wrestling (dont say it, or assume it  T_T). I was pretty competitive, and made it to states a lot. I love contact sports, so once I enlisted I made sure to take every combatives opportunity I could. I love grappling, and have gotten into judo a little. I'm in shape because I have to be, but I enjoy running and run all sorts of races in my spare time.

Other than that, I am an experienced competitive shooter (.22 LR pistol and rifle), and love paintball and airsoft (if there are any of those on here, feel free to hit me up  :3). So.... ya... I play sports, and I'm always willing to play pick-up anything with my friends and colleagues. In this topic I am familiar. In being a furry... not so much

I'm pretty BA at competitive lap swimming, but other than that I stink at everything lol.
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling of security, a feeling of happiness, a feeling of lust, a feeling of belonging.
A feeling we need.
We may think we can live life without it, but a life without it would be boring, meaningless, and depressing.
Love controls us. Without love, we are nothing. With it, nothing else in the world matters
Love is only a feeling.
A feeling that makes life worth living or dying
