Come one, come all. Talk about anything not league or video game football related here.

Anyone play any sports now?

Post by DRiccio21 »

anyone around here play any sports anymore?

i know we have a lot of athletes that played in college and stuff but i'm talking now


i'll start

i play in a flag football league every wednesday night with all former UM players and some other former college players (Mike Mckenzie was playing earlier in the year).

i play pick up hoops twice a week in the morning

i played in a baseball league down here (think i posted about it)... i was so into it at first then a little fuckin 18 yr old punk hit a bomb off me in my first inning of work and shattered my dreams of making a comeback :lol:

of course it counts, that was kinda the purpose of the post... i wanted to see how many guys are actually still involved in sports outside of video games

do you like softball? i've always stayed away but i've been tempted lately

if only golf wasn't so expensive... i think its criminal to pay 60 bucks or whatever to go get tortured for 3 hours

I dont have the time to play Softball anymore. Was big into it before coming to Fort Stewart, the OpTempo is way to fast here to get into sports. I still go golfing. I'm not good at it but those occasional 275-290 yard drives are what keeps me going.

I love softball. I dont take it as seriously as some of the guys in the league. Some of them are sliding and shit, that isnt me anymore. I play 3rd so I get some serious action. Im on a team with mostly friends so that makes it a lot of fun..

our co-ed team hasnt lost in 3 seasons....its surprisingly fun too..


i aslo used to golf once a week but it got expensive like you mentioned. Its a fun way to gamble and get the competitive juices flowing...

Softball, men's leagues year round here (got to love playing softball in January).

Golf about once or twice a month on average. Not very good, but usually low 90s (and without practicing I find that to be fine for me).

Cycling, just for fun, not into crits, might start doing some centuries or fun rides next year though.

I use to play hoops, softball and flag football all the time. then I had 2 kids and I've become a spectator of 12 year old and 7 year old sports now. I can't adford to play any sports now. if I blow out a knee or turn a ankle, I don't work. I don't have a desk job and need to be on my feet all day. plus I play like a all star in all the sports in my mind, but the body doesn't react like a all star . knee freezed up on me last week at kids soccer practice and that wasn't fun feeling like I was stuck in cement.

all you guys, play all you can. because one day the day will come and you just have to hang them up.

Play flag football with my brothers team here when they need an extra and I have time.

In the summer I try to golf when I can, low to mid 90s usually. There is a course here that was hurting bad for business, and only charged $5/nine holes to walk...cant beat that.

Every year my buddies from high school get together for an annual 'Turkey Bowl' the Friday after Thanksgiving. Guys from about 6 different graduating classes show up, so its pretty cool. It took until last year to finally get smart and use flags instead of tackling :oops:

Otherwise, I lift and run in the mornings three days a week, and do group cycling the other two (piss off, there are good lookin broads there too). Play pickup bball once or twice a week when I have time, which isnt much lately

Thats been the problem. A fair amount (probably over half) of the guys that play have played some college ball, from DI to DIII. Needless to say, one year two guys broke collarbones and another broke a nose. Most dont have health insurance either so that changed things, lol

Play in softball league co-ed during the summer and guys league in the fall.

Also in an organized co-ed kickball league during the fall this past year for the first time. It was fun and may play in the spring again.

Winter will be playing broomball one or twice a week.

I play hockey in a pussified men's league on Friday and/or Sunday nights. Currently on inline skates but the ice season starts in a month.

I am contemplating returning to football in April, but I am only at 20/80 on that decision.
