Answer 4

I thought diving was sweet. But I wouldn't want to do all the flips and stuff I would just want to dive from 100 yards up into a small bucket.

Answer 5

I already do triathlons... that's three sports already, and I lift weights.  Oh, and I play tennis, golf, softball, volleyball, kickball and I studied martial arts for about 20 years.   I'll leave the rest for watching on the 'tellly, thanks.  

Answer 6

Not really. Would do the same old sports I've always been doing. Basketball and running and an occasional football. And of course wet towel whipping.  

Answer 7

yes, kindof. i would TOTALLY pick up badminton but i cant do it right away b/c my school has no badminton club or anything and im stuck on stupid Hawaii where the only badminton club on Oahu is for old people.  I hate being on an island! Therefore, I'll have to wait until i get to college to actually do it and get good at it.

Answer 8

i think i can do shooting....

doesn't require any athlectic ability, does it ?

Answer 9

Yes, watching sports on TV while sitting on my couch.
