Kiwi - my late husband played football in high school, so he decided that he wanted to play rugby in college. He only played one year. He said it was BRUTAL! hahaha

Liamson - The football lesson was very, very helpful. Thank you! You probably saved some poor guy a ton of questions during a game down the road. :)

evelina - I played a lot of volleyball in Germany. The ceilings of the German gyms were lower than we Americans were accustomed to, so our serves tended to bust a lot of lights out. :) That didn't go over very well... We're very sorry for that :(

Sports that i love No.1 Golf, The whole reason i love this sport is because out of the past 5 different sports ive done this is by far the hardest to improve at and by far the hardest to be great at, it requires alot of hardwork and concentration and commitment.

Ive played Soccer (football) when i was younger but got sick of it cause there wasnt enough competition it happened also with track and field and cricket. Another sport i "loved" was NRL and still do, im a mad supporter for that game.

For me sport is my way of life. Without it i dont know where i would be.

Sports that have no point 1. Ice Hockey-you watch a bunch of guys hitting around a puck which you can barely see on tv anyways. 2. Baseball- need i explain myself ? 3. NFL - Too much stoppage time in between plays.

Cliffbar - I agree with your statement re ice hockey in the fact that watching hockey on tv is incrediably hard. It really hurts my eyes to watch blurry people play a sport where the background is white and the item of play (the puck) is a tiny little round black thing. The first game I watched in Canada gave me a migraine behind the eyes.
Now that my fiance lives with me here in NZ he can only watch games on his computor while I like to do things around the house while listening. I find this works way better, for those who don't know the game. Listening and focusing on just the commentary is far more helpful to an ignoramus like myself than trying to multitask listening and watching a blurry white screen with lots of activity going on.

After our wedding in July we're going to watch the Canadian and American ice hockey teams play for the first time ever in NZ and you can trust I will be taking my sunglasses with me lol.

The sport that I love but that also confuses me is double kickball. :D :D

You have two teams. Two home plates, one for each team (first and third). Two throwers. Two kickers. Two balls. Either ball can put you out. All kicks in play (no outs or fouls unless caught in air). Tons of people playing = you never know who the other team is, so don't trust anyone! You can stay on a base as long as you want (this can cause an anvanlache of people moving from one base to another, increasing the chances of getting to the base).

It's an adrenaline rush when you're in it, and you may not know what's going on, but it's so much fun!!!

I love American Football. But I'm confused by Australian Football and Rugby. I really don't know what the difference is, I was watching Australian Football thinking that it was Rugby found out later it wasn't.

Look for one of my previous posts, I have explained Rugby Union and clearly and simple as possible..
Also over here, football is what you guys call soccer (cos thats what it means! FOOT - BALL!) *sighs and shakes head..

Theres Aussie Rules, Rugby League (NRL), Rugby Union and Rugby Sevens. All with similaries and differences.

Theres another one! Cricket.. I have NEVER understood the point system. I don't hate cricket we're just in a misunderstood relationship lol.

Okay Cricket is easy.

You score 'runs' for each run you make up and down the pitch... however if the ball is hit and travels a certain distance then you automatically get a set amount of runs.

ie: There are markers on the field where you can hit 4 runs or 6 runs. Otherwise, you score 1 'run' for every length of the pitch you run whilst the ball is being fielded.

Make sense?
