Who inspired you to play the sport you play?!

[souljaa]

Hey guys. Just wondering, who inspired you to play the sport you play, or the sport you like?!

Me, I play football, hockey and basketball.
I was inspired mostly by my brothers and my cousin. They were always outside playing some kind of sport. I got interested, and ever since then, I love sports. I started playing sports when I was like...5-6 years old.
It's mainly my cousin who inspired me to play so many sports. Especially hockey, being the goalie, I only got interested because of him.
Football, it was just because I watched it and loved it. It's my main sport.
What about you guys?!
Just wondering :)

Yeah, my dad too, and my mom even...they have a big sports background, my dad shows off his trophies every time I come to visit...and I got into sports by watching TV too, and looking up the players and teams in books and on the Internet.
