i love computers but gaming all the time gets old and tv shows are terrible.... sports is more and more turning into entertainment more than the actual sport. that said, why don't "nerds" like sports? i assumed most of my fellow nerds are well rounded individuals and not the cliche' basement dwellers...

I as well am a PC/console gamer and I could honestly spend a full day inside just playing. However, I have wasted way too much time already in my life on this and I've realized I can get a lot more enjoyment out of a day doing something productive/fun.
Recently I have started training for a marathon, and I have also taken up off-road biking. I don't think I have touched a video game in about 1.5 months now

Don't worry, we try and keep flaming to a minimum around the forums (easier said than done though).
I'm not exactly an athlete, but I'm competent in most sports, i.e. I don't look that bad. Like you I occasionally shoot hoops when time permits (in the driveway) and play a bit of softball. I'm especially fond of ice hockey, even though I don't really watch hockey that much. Skating is one heck of a workout! If being active is healthy, you may as well have fun with it.

I'm not really sure of the average age of the regulars on these forums but I'd bet it's over 20. So most aren't the traditional high school nerds; we're just regular nerds. We've been round the houses of doing nothing but playing games / twiddling with computers and realised it's too boring to do just one thing. Variety is the spice of life and all that.
Personally, I've really gotten into playing squash. You can totally pummel the ball; it's brilliant. I also run, do some Taekwondo and enjoy a bit of football (Yeah I mean actual football, you know the game you play with your feet instead of holding the ball in your hands?
)

)
I consider myself to be a PC gamer. I don't play as much as I want however due to my crappy life right now. My "new" parts should arrive tomorrow and I'll move from my E6600 with x38 board to an i5 750 with P(?)55. I'm pretty much a valve gamer as most of my time is spent playing TF2 and L4D2. I do play a bit of Diablo 2 and I just recently started playing Vice City again so that I can drive a car.
While I used to play basketball in my younger days I don't do much in sports. Watch the local NFL team on TV play when I can. I've recently started watching MMA. I used to malign it as naked guys rolling around on the ground. I prefer to see that now instead of striking as its more interesting. Anyone can stand there and throw a punch (shields) but once its on the ground you can start to see some incredible things.

Edit: I never ran a timed mile, but according to the signs on the trail I once ran 1.5mi from a friends house to mine in 8 min. I had the proper motivation however as I was running home for a dominion war episode of ST-DS9

Squash is challenging. I've tried it a few times, but I don't have the coordination to do it well. BTW, wikipedia "squash (the sport)" and arrow down a bit in the article to have a look at the number one ranked women's player. It would appear as if she isn't a fan of the bra... Again, this is on Wikipedia.
Best of luck on the mile time!

Well, sports and nerds to say anyways, rather a difference in say, who knows. ?
Lets see, you are probably stuck use to being in a sitting position most the time and probably not even sitting right at that. So in terms of sports is as useful to do to even do as long as it has been of what you used to do. To say. So of this time would be probably some time to work with to say in your position of effort is of something now more somewhere else.
One question to say is why not any efforts before the place of effort?? Right?
Here is a good question, for of it is the place of what probably could be a place of sustainability, this probably is and will be a whole new word for the sense of it. But still in place of the idea of Sports and nerds though, yes?
In some sense though trying not to be cocky, in any efforts i think this is called part of lack within something. Arrogant , even, spelt wrong probably could be understood somewhat.
But dont worry, im only a half-way fall-out of to say sport junky.
But to say alot of thought needs its place is perspective, cause you probably only need to be in so many in the first place.
As for genders, who knows, the say obvious to some parts should help themselves in what could be helped on what has been in say topic so far .
"Sporting" to say isnt cheap, sometimes, cause there is a good chance of using things normally in use in ways not really used before. Like realizing jeans just arent the same to run in. You could probably wear them for years on in, and have no clue.
Maybe not that long, but ok. Still to say that any one thing is better then another is probably the question in what could be better off with sporting. All is subjective to the point of what would be considered sporting too. Yes?
Yes? So a sport of sort for the fit, any ones goes, but the better sport fits less a "fit". I dont know though.
Think alot with sports you just get to do and use things in terms of nerds maybe, you normally wouldnt use to say, mainly muscles the most, but some of parts of the brain might find some way in on some uses not used before as well. Too think of this though the most is probably something not to do as much though. So you can actually use it for another use to say and think of it later.
You are usually told this probably in many ways but not told to say as such, for such would say so as it is rather it is or not, yes? But of such is hard say or tell. For sportng is just as much to learn on own sometimes then not. But this can be subjective and perspective.
But sports due require alot of effort usually at any point of time and of that what kind of effort should be taken if not taking much effort. Think this is hard to balance but many work with much over. Being hard balanced is little placed sometimes think as well due to this, with many work over on into the idea of what might or should be balanced to work with on putting what kind of efforts and what should be taken of the efforts that is put. Or not taken to say. Sport isnt always loss. But loss can take their part within efforts of putting any in.
But sport doesnt always have to be about that of win or lose, but hard to place what would be sport without it sometimes. Or sporting even. However put or said.
Still, though, the mindful efforts of it should be placed with what it would take to conitnue a say sporting part of participation, rather huge sport or little sport, or even sport in the sense of a sports activity taken up for what it hasnt been as a sport activity. If you havent played basketball before and even messing around probably in some sort of sport activity not taken up before, even if its not something of sport too. So lack of betters doesnt find its fancy. But is still fancy for what it finds to say.
Otherwise you are probably just shooting around to say or dribbling to say when you havent much before, might get tired quicker then placed before. But not as knowing of it, perhaps. So, still of it though is the place of effort for many things that are still much of few.
So, keep in mind that of much at little expense, and learn why you had to remember something thought of. At sometimes. If thought find itself more thought of for what a thought might be in efforts not taken before.
Otherwise i would say more leisure efforts to sport from or on to say. Cause usually gotta drop something for the fact of another at times due to many reasons or few even if "taken" to say for what a few would be.
Sports can start to take up alot of time and effort if sustainability finds a place of usefulness, which probably doesn't take long to find at times. If some then , I don't know, usefulness is probably caught on something more useful. But still, even then effort should be taken for what still hasn't been used or needs to be used of efforts not taken. Changing what you are doing may not be the solution to look for the efforts not taken or taken mainly probably here.
If you say try to made goal in soccer so far out and miss, doesnt mean you need to go farther out or closer in or even kick harder or softer, might just try to kick again. You should change some part without alot of change to say for the effort of change within taken efforts to do so. Cause how you kick the ball to say is very placed more to say, if there probably isnt so much to change but maybe of change. But to say every kick of the ball is going to be the same even without change but where the ball is going, is probably more feasible for awhile.
Otherwise you will change what you intial done completely, a complete change to say probably takes more effort , yes? Moving the ball close or farther, of even almost to another side of where you was kicking. Still isnt going to say kicking the ball is going to be any better sometimes. Sometimes yes though. Further out probably not though.
As well with basketball, more shoots taken are shoots probably missed, but maybe shoots closer to not missing. A shot made can be better then one missed also.
But if you get to some weird point where missing is better then making, i wouldn't probably have much to say in all honesty. And to say that these efforts are good for say sporting might be as placed for what you are say sporting for, if sporting as well.
So, of Wellness to say, is something to also find as something as you go, but can always be told different. So of it is something to work with within ideas of sporting. All sports have wellness factors to say and all sports have no so wellness factors, of each should only be as placed as they are and probably knowing of what they are or how they are. Whatever they are to say as well. Why is something to work with just as well.
Wellness has a great benefit to many things are a good part of what wellness is for some reason. But something to say that are not well, might also be good but not at all times. Which usually brings in the most questions the most. With sporting many times over many questions are easy and many questions are hard. Even trying to sport to say. In terms of Sporting to play sports. But not at all times is easy or hard to deal with questions many places over to say.
To say that it is all easy is as it would or wouldnt come to that of say rather easily placed or not. Otherwise thought of easy is lost due to it. This will take probably the most effort within effortlessness and the wellness is easily lost as equally sometimes as well. But i think breathing within say the effort is a good part of not say well for wellness of effort taking. You usually breathe at all times of course, but stopping what you are doing to just do that all that time, is probably a part of not wellness within wellness that is good. Right?
Probably more obvious then none sometimes, but of it though it is breathing. So efforts of wellness might be found more on taking breathing elsewhere as you used to do normally before when you was moving around. But can lose its place of thought easily, wellness will extend this out or not extend out at times. Working with this differences usually make the most of sports and/or sporting.
Finding that and working within many differences without too much thought gives you more tiime for the sport of interest then probably more thought of it would.
Despite how fast things may seem or are, somethings are just still slow. This can only be changed for why it is. Even if it needs to be really slow sometimes though too.
Even though theres things to know, theres suppose to be little to think of or about with what you are doing. The part of say, is say of parts of many things, done probably lose to anything of what knowing could be. But knowing more is better off as you get to know. So thinking does get used more. Wellness thoughts of all should find themselves within it all when wellness thoughts start to prevail all.
So, of it to say alot without huge lectures and parts of many things let more to know for those who choice to play sports, or sporting to say. And even messing within ideas of things that could be sports to say as well, is kinda left for them to come to know the most.
I like to ramble, so rather much said is helpful I don't know. But maybe something to ask questions on or of is probably more to do with then not. Why, who knows, i don't half the time. But what could be said of known can just be anything said. I dont think im that bad, but if the thoughts there, im not going to really say it shouldnt be either. But there is alot to know for many ideas of sports and wellness to not know once known is the issue.
To say this makes sense probably not, usually of learning a difference is better placed. But to say always placed better probably not.
In tennis once you learn that you cant hit the net to keep playing from your side, do you have to know that anymore? When you do, if so, why? Otherwise it probably doesnt matter much does it?
I'd say from this point on you'd be trying to keep from hitting the net anyways, simply by hitting it over. But sometimes not so easily thought over even with hits taken. Must would be taken in place of first within thoughts of probably how something would get there, when hitting the net.
But who knows, everyone plays differently to say, yes? But the parts of knowing and not knowing are very subjective and speculative, aren't they? I say mainly on alot times, when you get asked how'd you do that and etc, probably won't know. But what you did. I say this, cause , sporting and wellness is subjective and perspective.
This is easy i think to get "stuck" on or in with many ideas of efforts taken for parts of sports and wellness. Easily to ruin it all from just these few places at times, for some reason once and awhile. Working within to know is know, but if not know working with what is is probably better placed even if you can sport so much within sporting and working with wellness or being just that of wellness.
To say putting effort into what's not that of better effort might be the last place to put most within what effort can be put within anything other then that of things that would be the most. Even though things that seem to only take the littliest of effort to cost the most, after even that of alot of effort already in place(s) of use.
Why, i dont know sometimes, but to say all time are of anytime though really is anyones guess, given many thoughts of things that shouldnt take so much effort. Or even use so much effort for the thoughts. But thoughtlessness efforts are hard to yield for the better parts of sporting is all i can say. Rather wellness is the same, is anyones guess.
To say I should say you should take things without thought is wrong. To say you shouldn't think of something so much that is thoughts aren't efforts, maybe. You should have to shorten your kick for the goal maybe to make, but doing so might be helpful. But thinking rather to do or not, might be helpful if you choice to do so as to just do.
Otherwise, don't change, what anyone else would say or even yourself, is hard saying. Here I know at times is alot more thought then effort to be used at times. But effort does find its place of thought.
So, on some thoughts i've probably doomed myself within some arguments, but not all things of thoughts are arguments. And of efforts, thoughts can easily be argued with or at even to say. To what place of effort that hold its course for, to say; is within much that can or cannot be known or to know of.
If you missed the basket with your freethrow to say, what to think of in terms to argue with, probably isnt going to hold much of course to make the freethrow after you missed it. But to only know you did. And that is why you might argue with efforts to a lose of efforts and a part of wellness that isn't so good. But wouldnt know till your efforts within argue are lost. Or might know that of the effort, your only lose is within your next threethrow.
Otherwise you will just take the freethrows until you are probably tired or say wellness takes its place. Rather to stop, or even change what kind shots to be taking. Maybe work with a few three pointers. Or whatever they are called.
Despite rather good in sports or not this usually probably takes some toll somehow, given issues of what is good and isn't good. Thoughts of efforts are within many places of interest on the idea of what is worth that of thought.
If you can putt a golfball, why worry about the long ball? This might be out there on say misplaced direction but of it is I think alot of effort for thought that has appliance of interest that might take more thought then normally would. Still of it though, effort should find its place over much thought for awhile or at times.
All of which is still I say at times with many, few, or none and on my own. Much is subjective and perspective. And all in which probably at anytime of not at all times within Sports and Wellness take much effort and thought.
Any different is probably just that, but can not only be a difference, but a start to something that isn't. This mght be more thought then probably said, but shouldn't be. But to say dribbling taught someone to cross a basketball under someone elses legs let alone theirs, I don't know. But it might be the same difference.
_______Edit:
Sports can sometimes be expensive, if already read.
I've read this whole thing almost 3 times. But will reread at times.

But to say dribbling taught someone to cross a basketball under someone elses legs let alone theirs, I don't know. But it might be the same difference.
_______Edit:
Sports can sometimes be expensive, if already read.
I've read this whole thing almost 3 times. But will reread at times.

Whoa....that was a really long post.
Just to add...I've always been into sports (baseball, basketball, football, did some track, but was not much of a fan).
Honestly, I was always one of those people that was more than willing to learn a new sport or join one that was going.
In college, I loved playing racquetball...can someone explain to me the difference between sqash and racquetball?
I find it's hard to find racquet courts or anyone to play in my area. Still keep active with softball (not even close to as cool as playing baseball, in my opinion) and like to lift weights.
Yes, I build my own computers, love gadgets, technology, and generally nerdy things - sci-fi, comics, computers, etc. I'm OK with that and still like sports.
I thought I was an oddity being nerdy and athletic/having a love of sports, but it appears there are more of us out there than I thought.
Good to know.

Im variant really, to say alot is much of nothing really at times, but of the thought once and awhile. Maintaining any difference is more the "sport" to say.
But shouldn't been seen as one effort is far from another enough to not try to make an effort of at times.
But, again, I don't know as much though as probably should to say. But sports are interesting, indeed.
As for say racquetball, almost a complete lose but the use of the word.
Softball and Baseball, Softball abouts wanna break the bat at times as it would seem, all i can say. Haven't really played much, more Baseball, but not too many times. Probably would break my wrist if i tried, for Softball anyways.
Sports are sports, they kinda come and go. Of some effort they seem come more then go though, yes?

Interesting. In the back of a chess mag I was reading once they had a chess champ giving his views on whether chess is a sport or not. The person asking the question said something about you don't break bones in chess. He replied that he once beat a guy who was a lot bigger then he was, and the opponent was so pissed that when they shook hands at the end of the match the larger guy CRUSHED his hand so hard he had broken fingers. This looks like you could break a lot more then that.

I don't really think of myself as a nerd. More of a gamer/computer enthusiast, I've always been a fan of sports too. PE used to be my favorite class before they made us do both theory and practical >.>
I was in a the netball, soccer and volleyball teams in primary - I think it is called elementary school in the states. Never got to join any teams in high school because of a combination of time/work/mom/no transport.
Just to give you an idea of how much i liked PE, we always had to run 2 laps around the field as a warm up every time at the beginning of class. I was always the one who got changed first and completed my 2 laps before the rest of the class got out of the changing rooms rooms LoL.
Now i am in college and play basketball for fun while waiting for my sister at the gym, i go snowboarding if i can, skate at the back of my house. Also considering joining the basketball team next year.
Funny thing is the reaction i get if someone finds out that I like sports/computers of video games. Something like O.O really?? I didn't know you like that same goes for my taste in music xD. I find it so funny.

I am a geek and I admit it. I am also an athlete. In high school, it was baseball, basketball, football, and track. In college, in addition to all sorts of intramural sports, I ran track.
Been on active duty in the Army since the day I graduated from college (in 1985). Was a competitive bicyclist and tri-athlete. Lots of 5k and 10 k races and all that cool Army stuff like jumping out of perfectly good air planes.
I am a gamer. Started in the D&D days, then computers, and occasionally on my PS3. I am a college football fan. My favorite NFL teams, GB and NE. Baseball, not so much until the World Series rolls around. NBA and NHL, not so much either. Love March Madness.
So, I am as alpha-geek as they get. I build, I hack, and I game. Love sports. Geekness/nerdness is not a factor.
Good discussion. I know lots of military types of similar persuasion. HOOAH!!!

There's a bug in the site so I can't keep track of my post and I am MIA. Find this again and interesting this has turn out.
At grade school around the mid 90's to early 2000's. No, I didn't learn how to crush people's hand by handshake. I must missed a day or 2 at school when people at school are all doing that. Let catch up on some grade school knowledge. So where is the week spot to crush?
I was into sport, badminton school team and in the top high school badminton league in my state. Not so much now and I grew fat. LOL! But badminton is an asian sport and often classified as a geek sport like ping pong.

Instead of going "all the way" and shaking like normal, you stop and grip around the knuckles closest to the palms. If you squeeze hard enough....
Not that anyone I know of in grade school every managed to break anything. There were some close calls sometimes. 90s????? I'm getting older every day. While you were in grade school I was in college....

So I guess boys will be boys is true. We always have toys. Just that because we have computers for toy, we are labelled geeks while that who rev engine or camping are not labelled geeks. That's unfair. They are just as obsess with their toy engine, rims and tyres, gearbox, touches, Swiss knife and tent like we like our ram, cpu, gpu etc.
Do you think these physical characteristic are the cause or effect of being a nerd? I am leaning toward effect. We human survive by hunting so any physically unfit genes are pretty much wiped (beast eating the slow runner). I think we all have some "jock" genes in ourselves but they are just not worked on for their potential.
I still think in the wild, you will have to do some vagarious and jumping running to avoid being eaten even you have arrow. Pretty much real life Crysis everyday, without the suit and the weapon. Have you seen those Amazon native, even with arrow and spear and shield to help them defend themselves, they are certainly not unfit.

Sadly i am the sterotypical "geek", as i am not intrested in watching or playing many sports. Though i was really good at Badminton back in my school days and i loved Ping Pong. This has taken a toll on me though, as now as a young adult (21) i lack many social skills and i also am fairly overweight(i'm working on that though).
It might be because i'm still only 21, so i'm still stuck in that phase that allows me to stay capable of just sitting at my desk everyday and game and talk about computers forever.

I would say that I've always been an athletic nerd. I have always preferred to play video games (PC gamer most of my life) or read by myself, but have also played a lot of sports through the years. I played competitive volleyball through high school and college and played on intramural teams for several other sports. I continue to stay active (when work allows me to) while also continuing to play video games and dabble in other hobbies.
I think that a lot of times introverted individuals have a harder time staying active and involved in sports due to the "team" focus. This often leads to them becoming geeks/nerds because it's easier/safer/more comfortable to have that sort of lifestyle.
Personally, I don't think there's anything wrong with that either. I spend my fair share of time wishing that my current job allowed me to sit around more rather than interacting with people all day long.

I've actually seen more and more high-level distance-running nerds. It's a pretty easy sport to stay committed to competitively, because you just can't run that much every day. No matter who you are, you're almost certainly not going to put in more than two hours of running time (usually much less) per day, and your core workouts and stretches don't take up more than an hour. When I'm not in school I have plenty of time for both running and gaming.
