Seriously, if you had the skills to do both, but could only chose one and be very good at it, which one would you be?

If an athlete, which sport? If a musician, what type and/or what instrument?

The question is vague and requires more input.

What sport?
Are you good at it?
Are you past your prime?

What instrument?
Are you good at it?
Who do you know that can help you take off?

Essentially, which one offers the most promise?
