I figure this is the right place for this. What sports did/do you guys play/participate in? I run track and cross country for my school...those sentences sound corny. 
Anyhow, I was just kind of wondering if the 'computer nerd' and 'jock' stereotypes exist here or no. So, sports?

I used to play Touch Rugby, 7-aside Rugby, 15-aside Rugby, Cricket, "summer" cricket/indoor cricket. Indoor football, football, field hockey, volleyball etc.
Blew my knee out one year, was forced to take a year off sports or else I'd end up needing surgery to repair any further damage, but towards the end of that year, I blew out the other knee after I got pushed down some stairs by a dog ( >:( ) and also tore my ACL (i think) in my shoulder. Ended up getting lazy & oout of shape. Been that way for a few years now. Severely lacking movtivation to get back into shape.

I play football, not soccer. I love the game itself. I like to play WR/SS/KR/PR. I'm pretty good to say so myself. ;) Maybe you guys are looking at the next Jerry Rice. XD
My dad wants me to play Basketball. He played in college. If I do play, I like to play PG. I love to get assists, just like Steve Nash. I prefer to play with 2 Fs and 3Gs, and play half court. I'm still tying to perfect my shot and free throw shooting. I have to remember to bend my knees more. XD

Brief stints at football (soccer) and basketball during my pre-teens. Eventually ditched both of them, although I had good reasons for doing so.
Also practised a form of martial arts known as Spirit Combat (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit_Combat), but it wasn't a very good one, so I quit. Never tried martial arts since, mostly because I feel I'm too old to start from the beginning and get very far into it.

I participate in the sport known as wrestling for my school. Pretty good at it. Had to stop because work and wrestling got in the way:(

Why you Americans called that sport "football" is utterly, utterly beyond me lol. One person on a team of about 50 actually uses his foot in any relation to the ball haha.

I had talent as a runner. Again, it's just something I never bothered to develop.

Does longboarding count? :D
Aside from that, I swim and I play football (soccer).

Just like in actual football, rugby, tennis, baseball, cricket...let's just call all of them football, too.

Didn't it all evolve from a rugby-like game?

It evolved from Rugby from what I understand.

Ok that's what I figured. Here's a question: If we (Americans) can't call it football, what should it be called?

Why not just stick with "grid-iron" I mean - it's already used in conjunction with the sport isn't it.

Eh...not as much as you would think...let's put it this way, only announcers use that term.

Well then perhaps it's time the rest of the NFL supporting public catch up with the announcers
