    I don't engage in sports much.


    I like to watch everything from the couch.   If I do any activity, it is usually excercising, or massage work.  That keeps me in some kind of shape.   I don't like crowds and I hate the driving and the heat.  So, TV is easier.

    Curling as the answer to both questions. But it is getting too hard to participate at my age and in my condition. :)

    Isn't that pushing a disk on ice with a stick? Kinda like ice hockey but not exactly?  Thank you for your reply Maurice and Happy Sunday! :)

    No, more like chess on ice, using 44 pound stones, which are slid along a sheet of ice. Once thrown, the stones cannot be touched, only the ice ahead of the stones can be cleaned while the stone is moving.

    Chess on ice? Oh my gosh Maurice you couldn't have made it more intimidating. So you have to be both BRILLIANT and STRONG to play? Oh boy. That lets me out on both counts! Thank you for the links. I will click on them. Is Curling one of the Olympic sports? I know I've seen clips of people playing it but I don't remember the context and it was not very lengthy! Thank you for your reply and Happy Monday! :)
