<br>
<br>Kevin: OK. Great. 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, my whole life.
<br>
<br>Todd: Wow. 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 pursuing 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>]]>
