Up until the age of 16, I was very focused on sport - I played a lot of football. Then I tore my ACL and had to stop playing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was heavily into sport from 10 to 15, I was in all the teams, and it was everything to me. But I was very young for my school year and when puberty kicked in for my classmates I got left behind.
I started playing baseball and soccer. Those were my sports on the streets and in school when I was growing up. I didn't even start playing basketball until I was 14.
I started playing football young, and my career was on the pitch.
Ever since I was young, I played sports.
I always played sports when I was young. I played football and baseball for eight years. I loved football.
I did enjoy football, but the injury factor for me, you know, I had so many issues. I don't know how long my career would've been.
I dabbled in football myself until the age of 14, but I didn't have as much love for the sport as I did track and field. I would never have been good enough to take it to the highest level.
I played sports growing up in high school.
I only started concentrating on football as a career when I left school at 18. I played golf for the Scottish and British boys' teams.
I played all kinds of sports when I was young: tennis, handball, basketball, some soccer. I focused on basketball when I was 16 or 17 and then came to the U.S. when I was 20.
