    This is a better version of the poll that Padeen had, with all of the sports that you mentioned, even the stupid ones. You can select five, because there are so many. Sorry Padeen!

    (American) Football, Wrestling, Swordplay, Archery and Fencing. I've never actually tried archery or fencing (or real swordplay, but I'll just say that sticks count...) but I've always wanted to.

    I am an avid fencer and martial artist. I go to tournaments every other weekend for either one. It's great fun

    Archery's good, though I rarely do it, and swordplay, well, I practice other forms of fencing when I get the chance, but the sport fencing as we know it is my focus.

    And then there's soccer. A great supplement for the above, since it helps develope coordination and footwork.

    I mentioned Formula 1 in Padeen's poll. I still couldn't choose Formula 1. I'm disappointed.

    Let me see, I've tried fencing, but didn't really like it. I've done archery, and it's pretty fun. Then I play soccer, badminton, and I love watching hockey. :)

    Soccer and Basketball...

    Hockey and Swordplay.... Any difference? In both sports you have to hit your opponent and snatch the balls from him, right? :p
