I love sports.<br><br>Todd: What sports do you like?<br><br>Kevin: Well, my favorite sport is baseball. Obviously, I grew up and my father was a baseball player so I was always around baseball.<br><br>Todd: Wow.<br><br>Kevin: My whole life.<br><br>Todd: You mean your father was a player in the Major Leagues?<br><br>Kevin: Yeah, exactly. Not only was he a player in the Major Leagues, he was fortunate enough to play in the World Series twice with the New York Mets.<br><br>Todd: Wow! That's amazing.<br><br>Kevin: Yeah, The Amazing Met's. 1969.<br><br>Todd: Wow, that's great. Did you play baseball yourself?<br><br>Kevin: Yeah, I played baseball pretty much my whole life up through college and university.<br><br>Todd: OK. Why did you stop?<br><br>Kevin: Well, it wasn't exactly by choice. I wasn't drafted high enough in professional baseball to.. in order for me to sign, so I ended up retiring from baseball and persuing other things.<br><br>Todd: OK. Great. Do you like any others sports?<br><br>Kevin: Yeah. I actually, I enjoy all competition. You know I enjoy the other typical American sports of basketball and American football and so on. I also try to learn about and enjoy the national sport of the countries that I'm in. For example now I'm in Japan and I've actually gotten quite into Sumo wrestling.<br><br>Todd: Oh, really?<br><br>Kevin: Yeah.<br><br>Todd: Nice. Have you ever seen a sumo match live?<br><br>Kevin: Yes, I have. I've been to two sumo bashos as they call them or matches in Tokyo.<br><br>Todd: Nice. Yeah, I wanna go. I wanna go myself.<br><br>Kevin: Yeah, let's go sometime.<br><br>Todd: OK. Let's do it.</div>]]>
