Once upon a time. Football. I wrecked my back one year and sat out the rest of high school football. I didn’t want to mess my back up more. They were kind enough to let me be the film guy though so I still traveled with them. I cherish those days. Football might have messed up my back but it made the kids who used to beat me up respect me. Maybe because now I was allowed to crush them. I don’t know.
Once upon a time in my youth I played football for a few years, wrestled for a few years, but my main thing was baseball and skateboarding. I played baseball into high school, and skated for about 8 years when I finally stopped due to a knee injury (I cared more about playing drums than skating and chose music instead of further injuring myself skating).
I played golf competitively for a few years in high school. Really glad I ended up with golf as my sport; It’s one of the few you can play your whole life!
Basketball all the time growing up. Played in school, stopped playing for the school team sophomore year, after I got into it with the coach. Played a number of fund raising games with former NBA players, still play when I can and get glimpses of my former abilities, but then a little voice pops up in the back of my head telling me to take it down a few levels I’m not in my 20’s anymore
Played baseball as a kid, but havent played in years. I still like to play tennis occasionally with friends, but I busted a string on my racket and need to get it restrung. Does trap shooting count? Because I do that with friends occasionally as well.
Wrestling. Both collegiate and freestyle rules. That was pretty much my middle school thing. Haven’t done it sense, but I still remember enough to be able to watch it and know exactly what’s going on.
