I play basketball, football, and I used to play baseball (but stopped cuz I suuuccckkkkk at it)

I understand. I've had bad experiences too. Getting hit in the face with a basketball, someone throwing a tennis ball at me after I told them to wait because I had a bit of grit in my eye, fainting after playing hockey in the cold (thank you, sports teacher, for saying we HAD to wear shorts when playing hockey).
But fencing was awesome. Unfortunately, I kind of stopped enjoying it towards the end though, mostly because this one girl, who used to be my friend but started acting really cold towards me, went fencing and I just didn't like being in the same room as her because it felt really awkward that she was purposively ignoring me.
Luckily in my last year of school, the teachers just seemed to STOP caring about what we did and I could pretty easily just go home or hang around in the library when sports were on.

Ouch. basketball to the face hurts. Never had it happened to me, but I've seen it happen. Though really, You're playing sports, so a minor injuries are expected, I think. I took Taekwondo lessons as a kid, so stuff like that wasn't really bad. A basketball to the face wasn't nearly as bad as getting kicked up side the head when me and my friend had a sparring match in our backyard xP
Granted we were like, ten, but me and him didn't get those silver/bronze medals in tournaments for nothing xD
Unfortunately, I had to leave practice because of money reasons. Which sucked. I loved doing martial arts and stuff. (also I could make a joke here about me actually being a ninja. )
Now, sports though, yeah, I hate those. Football, softball, baseball...just ugh. Never liked them, and I loathed the fact all of them were required in our Physical Education classes. It freakin' sucked.
I won't go into details, but one day, I ended up with a huge gash in my knee and a broken wrist.
Fun times. Didn't hurt too terribly bad - I was used to taken a bit of a beating from training when i was doing Tawkwondo, at least until they put the damn stitches in. Never again, will I let them put those infernal things in any part of my body unless I'm bleeding internally or something. I mean seriously, I could still walk and everything. It wasn't even bleeding but everyone was like 'omigosh you need stitches.'
Bah.
/rant over.

Oh cool, I took Taekwondo too when I was really little... though I just stopped because I got bored of it. I actually went through a lot of phases when I was younger where I'd start doing a sport like horse-riding, swimming and Taekwondo, and then eventually, something would happen (in the case of horse-riding, the stable had to close down for a bit, and in the case of swimming, I got a teacher who I didn't like as much as the last one), and then I just stopped going. Nyeh. Stuff happens.
Though, honestly, I should start doing some kind of sport or exercise. Otherwise, I will become fat and lazy. Like... more so than I am now. XP
EDIT:
@Vec: That is... really painful just to look at XD

Exercise! Eat healthy! Your body is your greatest gift!
At least, that's what my mom's been drilling into my head.
Also, I'm working on a post right now, but it won't be up for another 2 hours, because I have to go see a tutor now… BUT. It will be here soon.
Double also, y'know Ogo's fear of spiders? Well… I have the same sort of feelings towards pictures of mangled body parts. Like, NOPE NOPE NOPE.
..I don't exercise, and yet I'm roughly only 130 pounds, last I checked. Might be because I tend to not eat a whole lot, but meh xP
I'm relatively fit, I think. I could probably run a mile or so if I had too xP

I… can run a mile. Very slowly. Like, reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeallly slowly.
I'm about 120 pounds… I think? But that's because I'm short, and have no muscles :( Sometimes I have trouble lifting up my suitcases. Not even kidding.
And I wonder why I'm bad at sports.
I would move, but I think that's a bad call. I've bonded with this chair. It took a long, long time for it to warm up to me, but recently a breakthrough was made. It's starting to accept me as one of its own. Maybe then it will lead me to the promised land, so that I might meet the Lord of Chairs.
Ain't no way I'm risking that.
I'm tall. Tall and thin. Not lanky, but thin. Not exceptionally strong though, but if you want me to run somewhere, I'm a fast little person xP
Well, it's been great talking to you guys and sharing horror stories from the sports field (and... weird damaged arm pictures), but I now must go get some sleep. I shall be back tomorrow.
Hope Fabricant will have posted by then.
Niiiiiight.

Man, I'm so jealous! I've always wanted to be tall, but unfortunately I'm stuck at the not-very-tall height of 158 cm.
I'm six five... I HATE IT. People use me as their personal step ladder! AVAN! Get this from really high up! Also I am clumsy as an ox cause I did not grow normal...
<Snipped quote by Avanhelsing>
Just get a taller friend :D
Six three here. I now have a friend at six eight. My life as a gopher is over. BWHAHAHAHA!
@Rune_Alchemist It's called life, dawg. And I'd share, but then I'd be dead. Again. I've died enough times in my life to know that it's not good to Die Another Day.
All of the above. Welp, I'm unusally tired tonight. I'll chat with you kewl katz tomorrow. Later~
