Which one do you prefer? Sports where there is a lot of brute force involved or more of a preference for accuracy?

Like say, american football vs tennis for instance.

I should prefer the one with accuracy. It justs fits me better. Obviously, by the word 'should', I don't, although I think it might just be that I enjoy the tactics of American Football from the example, and it is the only sport I will choose to watch. Ultimately though the sports I enjoy playing from time to time (read; when forced to do sports) usually involve a racket/bat/club etc which fall into the prescision category, so I guess I can still go with accuracy without being too much of a hypocrit.

A violent sport for the sake of violence isn't something I'd do. If it's a sport that happens to be one in which violence/brute force is a necessary part, as long as I am competant at the game and happen to enjoy it, than yea I'd probably be playing it if the opportunity to do so was present.

As far as american football vs tennis. Both require accuracy - the football QB has to throw accurately to get the ball to the teammate down the field, a tennis player has to hit the ball accurately and get it to go where it needs to in order to score the point.

Personally, I'd rather play Am. football than tennis, because I'm better at and enjoy the former more than the latter.

 

[immortalhaldir]

It really depends. I tend to only like a few sports which would be: volleyball, tennis, swimming and rugby. Anything else is boring to me. So it isn't a factor of whether it is violent or not, it's what catches my attention.

 

[dealwithit]

I like stuff like boxing and MMA, but also swimming and occasionally football (Or "soccer" for you yanks) and handball.

 

[Duck_of_Death]

It ain't a sport if it isn't violent, in my opinion.
Everything else is a "game" akin to recreational masturbation.

 

[BlueG]

Violent sports are a fun past time activity. Non-violent for hobbies and such.

I was a swimmer for a while.

 

[dealwithit]

I was a swimmer too. It's an awesome sport for an ISTP. You get to improve yourself without having to deal with a team, but you can compete with others. It's perfect really.

That reminds me of a George Carlin bit.

 

[zynthaxx]

A wise man once said that real sports have the fragrance of gasoline.

I always enjoy watching someone who's an expert at what they do.

 

[Randroth]

I enjoy violent sports, and pretty much always attempt to inject violence into otherwise non-violent sports (ultimate, soccer, etc.)

 

[TazMadISTP]

Violent. NFL and NHL.

 

[Duck_of_Death]

Shit yeah, bro!

That reminds me of a George Carlin bit.

The fuck is George Carlin?
Screw that guy.

Imma be the ISTP subforum's unofficial George Carlin.
Rock it!

Is there a type of masturbation other than recreational? Or have you gone pro?

I approve the Swayze. Roadhouse.

 

[Duck_of_Death]

In terms of masturbatory activity, I've gone renegade.
Sometimes...a man's gotta take the law into his own hands.

LOL!

Secondly--that's Red Dawn Swayze.
Thanks for the approval, too.
I feel alot better about myself now.

I knew that wasn't Roadhouse Swayze. I just watched the Family Guy episode with House where Peter said Roadhouse a lot.

Roadhouse.

 

[Duck_of_Death]

You're confusing my Ti right about now.
Please stop.

 

[Siren]

Red Dawn was my first favorite movie.

 

[Duck_of_Death]

Oh, really? That's so interesting.
What color were your eyes again?

Roadhouse

Dark green. You would never know that if the character limit was 9.
