Sue Bird: "I think I'd want to compete in soccer. I think that'd be fun. Soccer's a sport that I really enjoy watching and I loved to play when I was little. I don't know if I'd be good enough, but I would definitely like to give it a whirl." |

Swin Cash: "The 100 hurdles, track and field. I ran it in high school and also when I was younger, that was probably my best event, and I would love to go up against Gail Devers. She was the ultimate when I was younger." |

Shannon Johnson: "There's a lot of sports I would like to play, but naturally I think I would play volleyball, because it's my first love. I actually began playing sports with volleyball. I was pretty good in high school; I was all-state. On the joking side, I could possibly be one of those divers, who do all those flips in the air. I could've been pretty good at that too." |

Katie Smith: "Maybe volleyball. I like volleyball. Ping-Pong's not my sport, my dad beat me last night, so I'm not very good at that." |

Dawn Staley: "Boxing. (Laughs.) I never boxed growing up, but I have an aggressive personality when I'm competing, so that's probably the best way I could display it." |
