For roughly ten years I played American football (Flag for three of them, but I still count it), though I recently quit because...well, as I've probably already said before, I hated it. Not so much the sport in general, as I still watch it quite often, at least where pro football is concerned, (Go Pats), but playing it is another matter entirely. For some reason, whether it was some of the more obnoxious jocks or the two-a-day practices in the blazing sun, I just found myself detesting the participation in the gridiron more and more. I didn't like it enough to go through the practices, so I stopped when I got the chance.
Now, aside from that, I haven't really taken part in any real sports for some time. I do some running every now and then, as much as possible at least, and I do occasionally scuba dive when I get the chance, I believe that's considered a sport. Unfortunately, central Ohio leaves very little water to swim around in, so all I've got are the closest quarries where they actually allow diving, which I've come to visit annually, just to keep my skills from getting too rusty. Hopefully I'll find more convenient opportunities in the future so I can go more often, and perhaps even to more exotic locations.
