In light of a few of my recent posts, this week's Friday Five seemed rather appropriate...
1. Do you watch sports? If so, which ones?
2. What/who are your favorite sports teams and/or favorite athletes?
3. Are there any sports you hate?
4. Have you ever been to a sports event?
5. Do/did you play any sports (in school or other)? How long did you play?
1. Do you watch sports? If so, which ones?
NHL hockey, NBA and NCAA basketball, NFL football.
2. What/who are your favorite sports teams and/or favorite athletes?
Hockey: my Sharks, of course. :) I'm also sort of hoping for the Avs this year. I'm still pretty impressed with Jean-Sebastian Giguere, and I still love Jeff Friesen. I could name half of the Sharks roster here, too, but I won't.
NBA: Utah Jazz, and John Stockton. I could still count Karl Malone in there, but gaah, he had to go and sign with the Lakers. The only thing worse than that would be if he'd signed with the Bulls. ;)
3. Are there any sports you hate?
Baseball is just not my cup of tea. Neither is Nascar, if you can count that a sport.
4. Have you ever been to a sports event?
I'm a season ticket holder for the Sharks. I've also been to several NBA games, and to some college basketball games. Oh! And the horse races--again, not sure whether that exactly qualifies as a sport.
5. Do/did you play any sports (in school or other)? How long did you play?
I played softball for several years, before high school, in the accelerated leagues. I started out as right/left field, moved to short stop, then moved to first base. I had one brief stint as catcher, and man, did that ever suck. I tried out for the high school softball team, but there were many many girls there who were better than I was.
