do electronic music fans like sports?

[content]

I feel like I am in the minority because I am a huge electronic vmusic fan and I am also a huge sports fan. Are the two mutually exclusive?

[lina]

depends on the atheltics...

[aleks]

football rules the world...

and i like to watch the brasil´s women volleyball nationals:!

[V Knid esq]

Sports is gay.

[deccard]

kampftrinken und weitkiffen
(dunno english expressions)

[zombie ritual]

No sports, gentlemen, most definitely!lol

[Sheridan]

I love soccer. grew up watching it with my dad and
since he is from glasgow being a celtic fan is kinda in
my blood.

[jamyna]

Does Grand Theft Auto 3 count?

[jamyna]

..............as a recognised genre of electronic music i mean :(
sorry

[Ava]

hackisac (although you can't really win or lose so i suppose it doesn't really count as a sport)

[namshub]

the only sport werf considering.

hehe....nimbin.....whatta town
I'm a absolutely massive sports fan....my dad's a PE teacher...and he used to play professional Aussie Rules football, and I had an uncle that used to play for the socceroos.....so I love soccer (I go for soton in the EPL) and I go for the Bombers (my dad's old team) in the AFL.
Although being an aussie mean's you're just about brought up on sports, people watch the AFL finals here (or rugby, depends on what state you're in) even if they hate footy.....because if you don't then it's: "what's wrong with you mate? you some kind of a poofter" and many other associated insults

Physical manipulation helps to improve your immune system, your bode become well shaped, and you become well balanced.
you can diminish your aggresion and it´s better instead of hanging around all the time.
i think sport has a very important role. the same like music has in my life.
i know i´m a morality apostle and behave like your parents.
please forgive me i like sport.

[JE:5]

I think watching sport is extremely boring, actually doing it would be ok, but I'm not exactly a fine example of good health. Although I do go on really long bike rides a lot in the summer, does that count?

[professor]

i think that does count, i do the same

If one does too much sport it can be harmfully.
do you know some persons who do so?

[Lady E]

football is a constant undercurrent to my life...i love it sometimes but my boyfriend is slightly obsessed. still it gives him an outside interest which is nice.

[professor]

a few years ago i was a running athlete.
my trainer was a very obsessed sportsman
he always run until he can´t breath any longer.
thats not the aim of doing sports

[Loz]

The only sport I find vaguely interesting is Snooker, but even then 99% of the games are dull.

[mrhospital]

Darts on BBC2, now that's what I call sport.

[nothinghere]

played hockey my whole life, now I cant understand the human need to compete. I find watching sports rather boring, except if its skateboarding. Still enjoy nhl2002 on me x-box though!!!

[c s]

i'm still looking for someone to start playing tennis again with.

[nothinghere]

I also played tennis in High School.

[amble]

i ride my bike or throw some balls in the summer sometimes. swimming is also cool. all in all i prefer doing sports that have at least a bit of fun in so i don't feel the pain of doing it all the time.

i could never go to a gym. i just hate them. one has to have a very low self-concious to pull on machines and stuff. maybe im prejudiced.

i also hate watching sports on tv. my father does that often. all fathers do that. that's some kind of a phenomena: it's totally unimportant what kind of sport it is, if it's just sport... "ahh, sport.."

[Will O The Wisp]

i can't live without weekly basketball game, it's the only sport that i really enjoy, i also love to play snooker and i like watching curling, darts, NBA,

[Atarythm]

I made a lot of skater hockey and ice hockey...
Also snowboard, ski, squash, athletics,...
But know I just stopped all sometimes ago... to devote my all free time to the music...
Know I'm also in a "Kampftrink" team as deccard said. :)

I can't watch sport on tv...

[@m.]

I'm down with the hockey / skateboarding / snowboarding / rockclimbing posse.

[nothinghere]

tried snowboarding once, fell and it hurt alot, so I stoped, I am not a kid anymore:]

Does Amped count, Im ranked 14

[lucid rinehead]

i live above my local, and i play on their darts team sometimes, which involves going to other (much scarier) pubs, but you get free pies. and i go skiing when theres snow.

[JE:5]

Living above your local, now thats handy! ;)

[nothinghere]

living above you local, are you refering to your local drinking establishment?

[Lady E]

yes he means local pub. but its called the/ my local

when lucid says other scarier pubs, my god i can imagine them. pies wouldnt get me in there i can tell you!

i love swimming. and im bloody good at it. im also a good tennis player with natural flair (or so my mum tells me)

so i think that conclusively proves that some people who like electronic music like / play sport, some dont so much as the others and some dont at all

[deccard]

maybe the question should be passed over to the producers of electronicmusic who sit all day in front of that little screen in a darkened room. right hand the mouse. left hand their *--:!--*

[stu pitaus]

*--:!--* = balls, score a goal. how sexest of me....

[jukka]

used to play field hockey in my childhood.....but now the only sport i do is go fishing....and drink a lot.

[lucid rinehead]

haha...i live in the red light district down by the docks and my local looks scary enough from the outside, but its luvly really...even the scary ones usually seem to be ok once you're inside. you get some hardcases on the darts teams though...

[mini]

definetly:
boycot all those fucking sportsmen!!!
he professor, give an example for a well-trained body of a sports-man?!
i've heard you also want to drive to erfurt before going to leipzig this thursday?

[Ruben A]

Sports??? hmm... well I walk/run 12 km every day at work, since we have two floors. So I think I´m okay?! Used to run around in the forest. You know this sport called....ehr.. "you-have-to-find-the-hidden-posts/marks-as-quick-as-you-can"... run!???
lol

I also used to skate some years ago... okay..when I was 14 I guess?? hahaha...
Snowboard is cool too, so is running on my BMX!

hopla!

[daimon]

I play basketball, I just lOve it! It's all about feeling :) it's grace, power and struggle in one :). I played in school, I played in the university, and now... I find a time only at weekends. But there is one thing that I hate about it - injuries ... it's a pretty scary theme.

[Derb Mukeman]

when I was younger, it was always sports ! when I discovered 'this' music it stopped... Nowadays sometimes squash or a little football match with friends...

[Tomoki]

@daimon
The Latvians are very good in Basketball, or not?
Is Arvidas Sabonis still active? I think he played for the Portland Trailblazers…
I am playing Table Tennis since 15 or more years. It is still fun.

[gunjack]

NBA and SUMO

[aleks]

beating other people up...

[dick head]

me i've just taken up budgie bashing

(badminton)

it's great actually, not too difficult, not too strenuous.

i also like walking up scottish mountains. is that a sport?

once you hit 30 you no longer have the luxury of being able to say 'i can't be bothered with sport' unless you wanna be a fatty.

[Basic]

Yeah, football is cool - ideal way to channel that aggression after a day at work. Clears the mind for when you wanna get creative on the turntables etc. OK. works for me anyway.

As for watching it....
Don't get to run about with the football types at games anymore, I'm too responsible now (sorta). Rather be spending the money on tunes to be honest - at least you have something to show for it. Enough of it is wasted on "entertainment" of that nature as it is!!

[daimon]

Yes Tomoki :) But not Latvians :) LITHUANIANS ARE GODS OF BASKETBALL!!! :)))
Sabonis didn't played this season, I thought that he's going to quit, but yesterday I red that he's gonna play in Zalgiris! wow! Now I'm looking forward for finals :). And yes before he played about 5 seasons in Portland Trailblazers :).

I like tennis too, though not table, but lawn tennis.
