Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What sports did you play?

baseball and wrestling

High school was football, basketball, and baseball...the only 3 options.

4 years as a linebacker in undergrad.

Competitive powerlifting for 4 years.

19 MMA fights. Still train but don't fight anymore.

Last 3 years I've played in a football game that's a fundraiser for a youth home. 1 game, but it's over 2 months of practice getting ready for it.

It's about time to stop but I can't imagine life without some form of physical competition.

That's pretty good! Your socks are a close match to the guy on the bull's shirt!

Swimming. Year round (age group team when high school season wasn't running).

Still hold the HS record for the 500 Freestyle at 4:46.18 in '03.

Never competed officially outside a few triathlons, but was a damn quick cyclist too.

Was always a distance guy. Couldn't run a 100M sprint to save my life, but swimming the 1,650 (mile) was no problem.

Mainly swimming, my school won 4 straight state championships.

Also track, soccer and hockey.

Track and football put me through college.

The first varsity college football game I ever went to, I caught the opening kickoff.

Punt and kick return, wide receiver, 100, 200, 400 meter sprints.

Wrestling.

Football
Baseball
Boxing

In high school: Track, ran all the sprints. 4 letters. Football, offensive and defensive end. Preferred defense. Averaged 20 yard receptions(8) on offense. 2 letters.

Just rassled (not leg rasslin' like logcutter did though) and drank beer. Looks like there's many here who have CTE to look forward to in the coming years...

Mostly short distance sprinting and pull ups

Sprinting from cops and then pull up into the parking lot at the Law and Justice center...

That sounds familiar.

Drank a lot of beer.
Hid from the cops that were constantly trying to catch us.
Got caught once or twice and had to pour said beer out on the ground.

Chased pretty young girls.

I played football 1 year. Got injured in the summer and never played an organized sport again until college intramurals where my competitiveness finally aligned with sports.

I was always hyper-competitive in other areas such as who could drink the most beer, have the most fun, etc. But that competitiveness didn't come together with sports until undergrad and grad intramurals.

as a pup, football, basketball and baseball

as a high school kid, football, basketball and track when I was really dumb


football was what I lived for everything else was just to pass time, dreams of playing college ball went out the window during two a days my senior season.

separated my shoulder and wouldn't give up playing, wore a harness and went on to separate it another 8-9 times during the season.

yep I was still really dumb, but I loved that game and what it taught me about success.

God bless my ole ball coach he was a heckuva guy and I didn't realize his true value at the time.

My mount was a reverse kip to an L cross. Did not compete my senior year, due to singing commitments. Was in the top 10 in PA in my junior year. Was always strong. Not so smart, though...lot of VERY athletic guys on the fire.

Football, baseball and rifle team. I stopped playing football, other than lot games, by the 10th grade. It was hurting too much and I said '[bleep] it'.


At the time I could dribble a ball and I could run, but I couldn't do both at the same time.

Soccer as a kid then football and track. Went to State in the 400 many moons ago.

Raced some BMX and mountain bikes in the 90's. Wrestled one year. Screw around a little at a jj gym.

Always had respect for the guys that were good at pole vaulting.

football
lacrosse
baseball

not the most skilled, but I made up for it in enthusiasm.

Hockey and baseball through high school.
