The Bottom Line Need More Write-Offs...

Hello everyone, this is the first time I am participating in a write-off. I have been reading and enjoying a lot of write-off’s lately, and was waiting for something to put my thought on. I hope that you all like what you read. I am also hoping to not bore you out of your mind.

Here is the link to Puckmugger's explanation of the write-off and his questions to go by and then his entry link:

I like to watch Football, Tennis, Soccer, and sometimes Baseball. I do not like basketball that much because I get sleepy watching it.

2. How often do you watch sports on television?
I usually watch most of the Football games and a little bit of Tennis and Soccer, but rarely watch Baseball.

3. What are your favorite sports to watch live?
I would have to go with Football. I just love those people trying to beat up each other for a ball.

As of yet, I have not attended a single Football or Soccer games. I would like to though very soon.

5. What organized team sports have you ever participated in previously?
In middle school I was in the Soccer team (was not that good but made the team). In high school I joined the Martial Arts club. No one actually knows this but I studied Martial Arts for 6 years, but I am getting lazy now. Have to start back up again.

6. What organized individual sports have you participated in previously?
Individual…. Hmm… Well, during my high school years, I attended a Martial Arts dojo and I attended a tournament (did not win though). I guess you can call that individual.

I would have to go with Tennis and Badminton. I learned to play in high school and just loved it. Ah… the good old days!

I wish was had a swimming pool because I just love swimming. I can never get enough of swimming.

11. What’s keeping you from doing it?
See number 10. Do not have a pool or one close enough.

12. If your fairy godmother was going to give you all the skill and a job in pro sports, what sport would you play?
Football, because I would like to tackle one of those big guys and also get tackled myself, once in a while. Have not tried the real tackle Football yet though.

13. What team and position (if relevant)?
I would like to play for the Green Bay Packers. I think I would make a good quarter back (at least that is what I think).

14. What beer would you promote as a sports celebrity? (OK, that was just to make certain Bruguru, Marty and Fuche participate)
I can not say, because I do not drink. I am serious man. I have not even tried any sort of alcoholic beverages.

15. What brand would you promote?
Adidas would be the one. I like their gear.

16. Do you have any sports heroes? Who are they and why are they your heros?
Steven Young (was quarter back for the SF 49ers). I do not really know why he is my hero, but he was a damn good quarter back.

17. If you could invent a new sport, no matter how absurd, what would it be?
I would like be combine Football with Martial Arts and see what happens. It would probably end in a lot of guys with broken bones, but hey, it is worth a try.

Well, there you have it, my very first participation in an actual write-off. I hope you like it. Thank you for reading. And most of all, thank you Puckmugger for hosting this write-off.
