I learned easily and had time to follow my inclination for sports (light athletics and skiing) and chemistry, which I taught myself by reading all textbooks I could get. ↗

We live in a world where sports have the potential to bridge the gap between racism, sexism and discrimination. The 2012 Olympic Games was a great start but hopefully what these games taught us is that if women are given an opportunity on an equal playing field the possibilities for women are endless. ↗

When I was in elementary school, we weren't allowed to do sports other than cheerleading. By junior high, they let us play, but we had to come back after 6:30 p.m. to practice because there was only one gymnasium and the boys used it first. ↗

Sports is like rock 'n' roll. Both are dominant cultural forces, both speak an international language, and both are all about emotions. ↗

Men's competitive team sports focus on the balance between individual achievement and team achievement with the emphasis on team achievement. ↗

I did all the right things in so many tournaments. But like I said, sometimes in sports it just goes the other way. Maybe you've already won so much that it evens it out a bit sometimes. I don't know. ↗

Baseball is only a game, a game of inches and a lot of luck. During a time of all-out war, sports are very insignificant. ↗

I do appreciate a woman who has a passion for sports and knows their stuff. ↗

My biggest pet peeve are just girls who go to sports bars who have no intention on caring what teams are playing, like they're looking for just a night out. That drives me more crazy than anything else. Like, don't pretend to be a sports fan. ↗
