I played football when I was a kid, it is such a fun sport to play, I fancied myself as a midfielder until I grew too tall and discovered basketball.
When I first started playing golf, I was heavily into softball and basketball.
I remember when I had just left WWE and I was wrestling in England and Germany, I could just tell that this influx of this new wave of wrestling was coming much like it felt when I began wrestling back in '99.
I lost in the 1988 Olympics, and I was pretty depressed for about eight years. I quit wrestling, and I got into Brazilian jujitsu in 1991.
I think players changing coaches is normal.
I've been an athlete all my life. I was a competitive figure skater, and then when I realized skating was not an adult sport I took up tennis and played that quite seriously from the time I was about 18.
It all depends on the athlete. It all depends on if the bigger guys come out, and they become a Shaquille O'Neal, or if they become a Porzingis...You don't ever lose sight of those type of players, even though the game has changed.
Equipment's the biggest change. And the guys have been getting bigger, stronger, more athletic - so the game has become more of a track meet instead of a tennis match, in a sense.
Every day and in every way, baseball gets fancier. A few more years and they'll be playing on oriental rugs.
It was a really tough transition going from rugby league to AFL.
I played cricket at primary school but hardly at all at high school. I was more of a footballer.
I played baseball when I was younger, but the idea of the college scholarship enticed me to switch over to softball.
I was a basketball player. And my mother even wanted me to quit because I hurt my leg. But I didn't know anything about football - from Pee-Wee on up, my friends would play, and I would never go with them.
The big tragedy in baseball is that the amateur spirit has gone out of it to a large extent.
Every decade the game changes and evolves, but by no means do I think the center position is dead, because there's still a lot of great centers.
After giving up softball, I didn't know what I was going to do. I thought I would try bobsled, but I wasn't really sure what would happen. I thought my athletic career was over.
I'm excited to see the growth in women's cycling, and I think the Women's Tour has had a really positive impact on that change.
I was in my junior year of high school and I had been playing soccer and basketball almost my entire life, and I wanted a change of pace. I wanted to do something more, something different. That's when I found an MMA gym about 45 minutes from my house and fell in love with the idea of becoming a professional fighter.
I played rugby most of my life and then I switched to snowboarding, which provided me a lot of inspiration.
Maybe I'm in the wrong sport. I should go to Australia and play fast-pitch softball.
