hrgl - I thhougth cause u teh soccer thread became a all sport thread?

edit: just read it, sry.

[one-cool]

Well what kind of sports do you play in your REal Life, and what kind of sports do you favor to see on TV or do you go to sport evens somewhere in your country?

@Sowilo: you thought wrong :D

[Sowilo]

I do no sports - only have to go 20 minutes by bike to reach the university. I tested a dozen of differend sports but I didn't liked them at all. The only sport I look is e-sports. WC3 Matches r really cool. SC too. I was a few times looking soccer but always if I am there my team lost so I avoid to see soccer^^.

[rekinu]

well, in real life I practice Aikido (martial art) for about 5 years ^^. (if you don't know Aikido, I can say that Steven Seagal practice it and he is a great sensei )

about watching on tv, I like footbal, Ski Jumping (I like Adam Malysz and Sven Hannawald;)), also I like to watch snooker.

sport events in my country ? I went to my local football team matches...UTA ARAD !!

I did played chess in school, maybe many say chess isn´t a "sport", but i think it is. Concentrate for a long time can make you tired like you run kilometers (imo)!
Ski jumping (Sven never comes back) and Snooker is great! Have you seen the Black-Pot-Cup (or something like that, i think it was called like that)???

say that again... I was tired when I took meditations(extra school classes), I used to pray that the 2 hours are over :p (at maths)

I don't know if I saw the Black-Pot-Cup, because I watch it occasionally, when I see it on EuroSport, but I like it.

I play with my friends pool...(instead of school§rofl...)

[rockfest]

I used to do some martial arts but i can't remember wich kind(i was too young). I enjoy playing snookr(not that often) and pool. When i can i play a little football(even tough I'm not that good). In rest...i don't do too much sports but i would like to practice more. :(

[Godcrusher]

i used to play table tennis for 3 years(the only sport that isnt really boring exept soccer). Then i played guitar for 6 years. Now im killing myself on a nice bass guitar :)

You shouldn't have any problems if you used to sing at the guitar for 6 years. You just have to make your fingers get used with the hard strings. ;) Good luck. Hope I'll see you in a band someday.

@on-topic: tenis and snooker :D
tenis - roger federer - he palys really good IMO :) and at girls i'm not sure maybe Kurnikova (sry for speling)
snooker - O'ssulivan of course :D (sry for speling again)...

[DeadlyArrow]

I don't do any sports seriously, just don't have time for that. I like watching Formula1 and some years ago I was watching Bushido Rings (now they don't show it on TV).

[rockfest]

Bushido Rings
What's that?

[DeadlyArrow]

Thats fights. Actually every fights federation has own rules. It's a mixture of stiles - box, aikido, karate, every one can use what he wants. It wasn't very brutal but quite interesting.

[Petyamester]

Ice hockey! :D

[rockfest]

@jaden who is that guy? It was you? I never heard of this sport before. Boy the things he jumped and ran through. Nice one.

He is the Stannum. Our great idol in Estonia. At least, my idol. David Belle (french stuntman) invented that sport. He is our idol too. He's pretty famous.

[rekinu]

Jaden, I just saw that guy...he is really jumping...^^ I won't recommand you to run after him thru a city... he is a tricky one ....^^ Well me and some friends used to jump over some bars in our neighbourhood, but nothing like that guy...so §respekt for him and Estonia ^^ and for you too, if you practice Parkour...;)

[-Jaden-]

Thanks. :) §danke I've been doing parkour, since it was impossible for me to go to gym no longer. And it's really great. :) I recommend it.

[rekinu]

well, for a start I know how it is to practice something on the street, because 2 years ago I was break-dancig with my crew, on pure ground(with linoleum), so it is also a kind of outside sport...^^ (I broke my right hand, and after that winter camed, and we paused our activity, because we did not have a gym where to go and practice, so our crew is over since 2004 january...)

Do you know if that sport : parkour is practiced in romania? :confused:

[-Jaden-]

No idea. But you can always start it by yourself. :) First you can search google a bit for pk teachings etc. then take some friends with you and start doing this kinda thing. You don't have to start with pro tricks in the start. Choose some small walls etc to climb over.

again some videos. try to learn from the videos, what they do most etc.

edit: dear God, look at David Belle :eek:
