Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on July 30, 2007, 05:15:39 AM
I love basketball and baseball but i dont play them so regularly

Anyways if UY were a sport,then count me in
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Forgotten_Lum on July 30, 2007, 05:27:51 AM
lol UY could be classified as a sport, lots of running, injuries, pain, suffering, always a winner and always a loser

anyway, i'm a soccer player(or football for europeans), play every sunday, also play volleyball on thursdays

I'm not a sports fan, but I like to watch soccer.

BTW, as I see it girl chasing could be considered a sport.
think about it:

1.Trying to arrange a date with at least one girl
2.Evading Lum at all cost
3.Writing down the most names & addresses for later date arrangements

To reach the ultimate goal
4.to get the most kawaii girls to achieve a Harem (with Lum included)

poor girls.. they must be tired of playing the game lol

ataru should join cheerleading!! lol so he can be around girls

indeed
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on July 31, 2007, 11:44:12 PM
But to be a cheerleader you need to know how to dance. Ataru dances as a monkey. Back to the topic, I love all kind of sports that include teamwork (I don't know if it is well written). I will make a top 5 of my favourite sports:

1-Soccer
2-Handball
3-Basketball
4-Rugby/ Football (I have put these sports on the same place because I can't decide which one I like the most)
5-Beach Soccer

The best sport I've seen and done is Kill, but more complex is war.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: watashi on August 01, 2007, 12:19:37 AM
geez... thats a bloody sport...

but very interesting
and may i know Where you play this sport??
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: DarkDevil on August 01, 2007, 12:47:00 AM
I've played, long ago.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: watashi on August 01, 2007, 12:48:46 AM

where did you play it at?
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 01, 2007, 12:51:18 AM
I bet that what he calls "kill" is to hunt mouses, rats, hamsters and birds. And what he calls "war" is to female-cat-hunting and fight another cats.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: watashi on August 01, 2007, 12:57:25 AM
lol

thats even more interesting than i imagined!!

[sorry my i-love-cats instinct got me...]
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: DarkDevil on August 01, 2007, 12:59:05 AM
I don't "kill" mice and I don't need to fight the "war", I already won.
The last time was in Austria.

(No problem, Miss Watashi)
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on August 01, 2007, 03:59:26 AM
Didnt the last war you won was Irak,demon?

Anyways to play sport one needs rules,killing has none (or maybe i ignore if that is one of the universe laws you like 2 comment,demon)

It's mine too ;), but since I have years without doing it, I totally forgot about it

Don't feel too bad. I don't get to fish often either. My dad is usually busy running errands assigned to him by my mom and my grandmother, so he rarely finds time to take me on a fishing trip.

mini golf

it seems interesting
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 03, 2007, 02:00:03 AM
My favorite Sport??? ... Whatever it's on the Sport channel... LoL

My favorite sport is probably Basketball and football (soccer for some) I like motor sports too especially karts and quads but i only drive them when I go in vacations to my cousin house...
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 04:07:19 AM
I have 2 (3) sports I like.

One of them is volleyball, something I only did in gym classes in school but I still like it. :P

The other one is swimming. I did it for quite a few years and I was even offered to go professional. Where would I be if I hadn't refused... :P

And if you consider it a sport, then I'll say gaming (it is considered a sport by some people...).


I hate football/soccer unlike the majority of the male population in this planet. :-\
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 06, 2007, 04:31:51 AM
Can you tell us the reason why you hate Football/soccer?

Its not that I LOVE football I just like it because of its the best way to play with all your friends... and I like motor sports because I love competing with them (friends)...
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 06:30:37 AM
I'm not sure why I hate it, but I have a damn good guess. :P

-I can't play it at all (seriously, can hardly run with the ball...)
-I guess I'm jealous of the players that get payed a ton of money to be chasing some round object...
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 06:52:20 AM
lol
thats why i dont like sports... i just CANT do it
and yeah... lol getting tons of money for chasing some round object xD
thats a funny way to say it lol
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 06, 2007, 11:58:24 AM
Even so I think I would play football for the fun... even if I got tons of money by doing it... :P
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 15, 2007, 06:42:04 PM
I absolutely LOVE soccer! It can be described as Kroptik said but to me soccer is more complex than that.

Soccer is a sport that has team-work, skills, coordination, speed, aiming, courage and sometimes fair-play. Usually there isn't fair-play and sometimes it is even more violent than boxing. Usually people do mean things to other people and all because of this sport, and that people blame the referees for the results of a game. Sometimes, the referees aren't fair but it is just a sport. And those referees "bought" by some teams should be punished.

And for those people who can't play just don't give up. If you go there and give your best shot and have fun it's one of the best feelings you can have.

i would love to use girl hunt as a sport  :Y
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on August 15, 2007, 11:26:30 PM
Are you gonna cheat on dat too?
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 15, 2007, 11:27:32 PM
sure,even ataru has relied on cheat in girl hunt
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 15, 2007, 11:32:48 PM
But Ataru is different. He can play with clean tactics. But you... can't.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 15, 2007, 11:39:22 PM
i can always sharpen my jogging abilities while girl hunting too,that has helped ataru to remain healthy
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 15, 2007, 11:46:44 PM
I think that you will have even less success in girl-hunting.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 15, 2007, 11:55:01 PM
even if i get to lose,i can keep trying,i am sure you also apply that to your sports,young cata
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 16, 2007, 12:05:00 AM
Apply what? Cheating of girl-hunting?
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 16, 2007, 12:12:16 AM
No,that you apply to keep trying in soccer,baseball,etc even when you are not in shape
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 16, 2007, 01:14:27 AM
Now I get it. Sorry for that. Well I do apply it but sometimes it is hard for me to be in a good mood when it happens.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 16, 2007, 06:50:01 PM
Now I get it. Sorry for that.

First time i get to see you apologize to me,such a good vibe  :Y
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 17, 2007, 02:33:26 PM
Lol. Well but you have to apologize me for many things that happened on NB.

my favourite sport is becoming my biggest nightmare lol

this weekend i have referee soccer, 14 games over 2 days, parents, coaches and kids always go crazy and blame it on the ref
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on August 18, 2007, 05:51:28 AM
That must be quite worse than a nightmare,forgotten,but well ya like soccer so there has 2 be low and high moments,dont lose hope
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 18, 2007, 07:00:20 AM
Don't forget the supporters on the side lines with "Kill the Ref" signs... ;D
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: watashi on August 18, 2007, 07:32:40 AM
lol.. that wouldnt be worth missing xD
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on August 18, 2007, 04:27:40 PM
Don't forget the supporters on the side lines with "Kill the Ref" signs... ;D

I wonder why many people playing soccer dislike the referee,i wonder why
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: alumxander on August 19, 2007, 05:56:53 PM
Maybe because it ruins most of da game?
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 26, 2007, 11:39:36 PM
The referees are supposed to be fair. Unfortunately in Portugal that isn't the case. There are only a few ones that aren't "bought" by the presidents of soccer teams. My country is full of corruption.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 27, 2007, 01:58:55 AM
Finally someone that agrees on me that this c ountry has gone to the dogs... Thanks you Cata, you made my day (and it just started, it's 1 AM :P). _/-\o_
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 27, 2007, 02:31:24 AM
LoL... You guys are young (can't even vote) and you're already worried about that stuff?! Tsk... tsk...

Corruption is everywhere... in sports, politics and even in church... you see, there are no saints in this world... (at least I haven't seen one yet) and besides corruption is something that our parents and family teach us from very young...
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 27, 2007, 04:58:32 AM
What does it natter if we can't vote? We still see that the country has no hopes with our governments, since the only thing they do is leave the country worse for the next ones who will come...

I seriously don't know if there's hope for this country. :-\


And just because you haven't seen a saint, it doesn't mean they don't exist. Are you that special that you have to be the one to see them first? :P
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 27, 2007, 07:43:44 AM
I am the Special One... and besides I'm not calling you blind or something... I was just saying that you young people should worry about your friends, loved ones (Boyfriend and girlfriend), school (if you want to make a difference in the future) and other stuff... Leave politics for when you reach 20 and return from military service and peace keeping missions... where your weapons and equipment are older than you... :P After sometime you will figure out that things aren't that bad... ;D
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 27, 2007, 12:20:10 PM
Corruption isn't the only problem in Portugal. There are too much crime, accidents and car crashes due to the bad conditions of the roads, the hospitals and schools are closing in the small towns and then the people that live there doesn't have a way to go to other schools and/hospitals because they're too far from the population. There are more problems but this is just a sample.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Cosmic King on August 27, 2007, 06:31:41 PM
Ok,back to the sports topic

Which one is better:Rugby or Soccer?

I prefer baseball but i guess the question above goes to all that love football and its variations
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 28, 2007, 12:18:28 AM
Let me see...

Rugby: Violence, Speed, Strategy, Stamina

Soccer: Aiming, Speed, Strategy, Stamina, Violence, Shot accurary, Shot power

I like both but I prefer Soccer, but not because I play better soccer than rugby.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 28, 2007, 09:24:28 AM
Isn't Rugby a legal clan war?? But soccer does the most injuries each year...

I don't like any really. :P
I'm more of a non-contact sports guy (swimming, volleybol, mini-golf). :P
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 28, 2007, 12:06:43 PM
I think that Golf is kinda boring... I can't watch an entire game.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: themexican on August 28, 2007, 03:08:18 PM
hey my favorite has to be soccer.

I also like to play Basketball

Is skateboarding even a sport?

Yep,skateboarding is a sport,ryuunosuke,it is a dangerous if one isnt careful enough
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 28, 2007, 06:40:54 PM
Skate is cool, too. I know how to skate but I don't know any tricks. Do you know that there's a sport that the only thing you have to do woodcut the faster you can? I'm not joking. I saw this sport in EuroSport Channel.
Title: Re: favorite sport

Actually, yes I do. ;D

Don't know how I do though. O_O

Skateboard... is only fun for those who know how to ride/play it... I really don't like to get bruises and leave my skin on the road...  :-\
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 29, 2007, 12:17:01 PM
Lol. There are protections for the body. You must not skate without any protections.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Kroptik on August 30, 2007, 05:48:34 AM
Yea, but if you slam your head on the floor it still hurts, even with your "protections"....
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on August 30, 2007, 12:57:07 PM
Indeed. But it is always better with head and body protections. Without head protection, a fall could be fatal.

Huh? No mention of pool? That's my favorite anyway, but sadly I don't know
anyone who can play where I live right now. Watching snooker is alright too,

Snooker... I love snooker! I don't like watching others playing but I love to play. I don't master the game but I am not a begginer. Thanks to this thread, I think I'm addicted to sports. Right now I have three addictions: UY, food and sports.

Well a sport itself would be using muscles, and the brain is a muscle so I considerer a sport would be playing chess.

anyone with me?
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: cata on September 01, 2007, 01:14:22 AM
It is considered a sport but I consider it more like a mind game than a sport. Usually we (people) associate the word "sport" to games and activities that require physical resistence. But there is a huge of variety of sports.
Title: Re: favorite sport
Post by: Jataru on September 01, 2007, 01:38:40 AM
Chess is one of the few mind games but are others like poker and dards that are interesting.
Title: Re: favorite sport

I love Poker. I never played real dards but I doubt that I could score many points. In Chess I'm a medium difficult oponent.
