    Default What is your favorite sport?

    I thought it might be interesting to talk about our favorite sports..and preferably this would mean one in which you participate or have participated but any sport you like is fine..

    My favorite sport was cross-country skiing. I started this in Alaska when I was in my early thirites and continued it for over twenty years. There were so many wonderful ski trails there and old snow covered roads. When there was a snow fall of fresh powder we could even ski right down the side streets in town and on the biking trails. We also took trips in which we skied in parts of Western Canada and states in the Pacific NW, USA..Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.

    There are only two "Sports".
    Hunting.
    Fishing. (My favorite)

    Everything else is a game.

    The sport I most enjoyed participating in is fencing (yes, that's the one with swords).

    A sword might get the job done....eventually...
    But a good fence hole digger would save ya a little time.

    When I was in high school, I was in track and field. I could run like the wind...umm now I can run like a brick.

    I too love to fish. My Daddy was a professional fishing guide. His love for fishing was passed on to me. Being from New Orleans, there is a city nearby called Venice, Louisiana. Fishing there explains why Louisiana is called "Sportsman's Paradise". My Daddy was also a hunter, but I never could get into it. Once my Daddy took me out for target practice and I accidently killed a wood pecker. I was only 10 and I cried for weeks because I just knew I had killed Woody Wood Pecker. That's when I knew hunting wasn't for me. However, our bellies were kept full from Daddy's hunting and as long as you're putting meat on the table, hunting is a fine sport.

    My very favorite sport is football. I looooooove football, and because it gets so hot down here, one of the reasons I so look forward to football season, is because I know when I start watching football, fall is on the way. Geaux Saints Geaux. Oh btw, that's how a cajun person would spell go.

    I have never really been a baseball fan, until my grandson who is 14, started playing. They made it to the Dizzy Dean World series last year and we took the week off to go support him. It was great fun and gave me a new appreciation for the sport. I now like baseball.

    Blessings, Cheri

    I used to be a HUGE Reds fan. That is until the strike. I've just never re-developed an appreciation since then. It's good to hear that your grandson is learning good sportsmanship and teamwork.

    You sound like my wife. (She just loves it when I tell her football is a game not a sport) I have to admit myself though, I cant walk past a good game of pigskin without stopping to see the score. (Even if it takes a half hour or so)

    Wow, here on our favorite sports. I'll add that my husband's favorite is baseball and he is a big Seattle Mariner's fan..I watch some of the games with him on tv and even went to one at Safeco Field once; but I prefer going to the girl's softball games at our local high school in which my grand daughter plays First Base. So...

    im a HUGE hockey fan to me there is no sport better lol. when i was little i took skating lessons was the youngest in the class but was the best skater. my parents never had the money to put me in to hockey but i played as much as i could. one of the women who lived by us allways built a rink in her back yard and let the neighbourhood kids play on it. or in my bsment with my uncle and brother those were the days
    7 And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. 8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
