    I never played organized sports before until at the YMCA.

    When I was in my early pre teens, and early teenage years we would play basketball and football.

    We never played full court five on five, but if we did, I would have played point guard probably. When we would play three on three, I would mostly take the ball out, and then get the rebounds, and play d, and receive backdoors. That sounds terrible as I am typing that up. The other guy would shoot the long distance shots, the other guy would be on the other side to recieve the pass or set screens to free the shooter up.

    We usually played four on four football on the streets. I would end up playing QB. It wasn't cause of my arm or accuracy, it's cause everybody wanted to catch a touchdown...Greedy son o b****es.

    During the pickup games at UH, I think I played a little point guard or off guard because of my size. I used to be a decent shooter, but something happen to it in October of 2004. I lost it at a picnic, and to this day, I have never regained it back. I lost it at Sunnyside park.

    In that basketball league I play or played in, I play (extremely) small forward. I even started at Power Forward one time. If I could shoot decently, I think I would play shooting guard. If I had those magical hands I once had, maybe I could play point guard.


    and my penis is REAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY HUGE.

    Well for soccer, every position...

    My dad used to make me watch his World Cup games when I was like 6 to study.

    My Alief YMCA Hawks were undefeated with my Pops as a coach back to back. He coached semi-pro in Flushing, NY for like 10 years, so we would cream the other teams. Some parents didn't like the fact my dad took it too serious... but when you love a sport it is life.

    Basketball, I guess PF, but I was not that tall...

    kinda like Sir Charles...

    Post up game was sickening!

    Football.. DT and C

    never played Baseball as a kid.

    Now I play Halo 2, Nba 2K series, Fight Night 3 and Fifa World Cup 2006. No more physical sports for me...

    Baseball - LF and 1st base
    Basketball - SF/PF :)( but i'm only 5'10")
    Ultimate - There aren't really positions in Ultimate, but on offense I'm kind of the equivalent of a soccer striker. On defense, I always defend the best passer because I'm good at swatting the disc.

    I played soccer for three years as sweeper/forward positions, basketball for 7 years, pretty much all positions, but mostly post as a youngster then in late junior high and high school I was SF but I got to handle the ball a lot, and in the only season of track i was in the 400 relay.

    As a kid I played at Y soccer league where you got to play every position. The one I played the most and like the most was fullback.

    Baseball I've played catcher, 2nd base and right field. Maybe that's why Craig Biggio is my favorite player.

    For softball leagues I've played every position but like 2nd base and pitching the most.

    Basketball started out as a center and forward since I was about the same size when I was 13 as I am now but by the time I was playing IM in college was playing point guard and shooting guard.

    Only played IM football and played halfback, quarterback, reciever, cornerback and safety. Never was a good receiver but can throw with either hand so I was good for a few trick plays. I liked playing D a lot more and liked playing tackle more than touch.

    For IM street hockey I played forward.

    We don't have positions in Judo but competed in 4 separate weight classes from 132 to 161 lbs.

    That would be me of course. :D

    Doggy style, missonary, etc. A back injury has limited my motion a bit, but I'm still a hard-headed player.
