3. Have you ever been active in some form of sports?

4. Would you rather be a computer geek or a sports geek?

My journal is friends-locked, so here are my answers:
1. What sport do you most enjoy watching on television (or tolerate most)?
Pro: American football. College: Basketball.

2. If you could be really, really good at one sport (we're talking world elite here), what would it be?
Hmm. My first instinct is to say "Disc Golf," since I've been playing that for oh dear Gods almost 20 years. But, much like "regular" golf, I don't consider that a "sport." I think I'll have to say "basketball," since of the three sports I played as a kid (see below), basketball had the best mix of "interesting sport" and "low frequency of serious injury." Yay me and low pain tolerance. ;-)

3. Have you ever been active in some form of sports?
When I was a kid, I played basketball, baseball and flag football. And, like I said, I've been playing disc golf for almost 20 years.

4. Would you rather be a computer geek or a sports geek?
I am a computer geek. As for the other part, it depends on how you define "sports geek." If you mean someone who enjoys sports analysis, thinks of sports from a tactical as well as an athletic perspective, knows enough about people's statistics to be dangerous, etc., then guess what? I'm that too. (I'm one of them there "well-rounded" geeks, looking up stats and histories on the Internet while cheering for my team.) If you mean someone who's good at sports, well, I can't claim that, but I know lots of people who can, so I disagree with the "either-or" nature of this question.

5. What teams do you cheer for?
Football: Steelers, Redskins, Panthers, whoever's playing the Cowboys
Baseball: Orioles, Pirates, Nationals (Yeah, baseball season's kinda depressing for me...)
Basketball (College): Pitt, Georgetown
Basketball (Pro): I don't have any teams I cheer for; it's more like whoever strikes my fancy at the time. (Which means I'm usually cheering for "a good exciting game.")

Hell yeah! I've only been discing since February and I'm completely hooked!

I'm from Pittsburgh and I don't care about their football team. Clearly, I need to be shot. ;)

Fun, thanks.

1. What sport do you most enjoy watching on television (or tolerate most)?
Baseball. It's the only one I watch and it's one of my passions in life.

2. If you could be really, really good at one sport (we're talking world elite here), what would it be?
Tennis.

3. Have you ever been active in some form of sports?
Not really, unless drinking is accepted as a sport these days. I used to be involved in dance classes rather than sports as a kid.

4. Would you rather be a computer geek or a sports geek?
A computer geek!

5. What teams do you cheer for?
The New York Yankees and Aston Villa football club.
