  • What sports (if any) did you play growing up, and...

    ...did you have aspirations to go pro?

    Personally, I played football (soccer) growing up. Goalkeeper, but cuz I was a sprinter, on the wing and up front. But my position was GK, which my pops also was. Was told by dudes who worked in the local coaching scene that I was legit good enough to eventually go pro. Circumstances dictated that I didn't/couldn't, and now I have the cardio of a dead rat.

    How about y'all?

        Baseball: Got real good and real bored so I quit.

        Football: Loved it from the beginning was good enough to go pro but wasted time hanging out & with too many females & bad habits so football just left me behind. Still kick myself for letting that go.

        Track: Did it just to get my speed up for football Ran the 400 relay, intermediate hurdles & the 800 when someone was out or hurt. I got 6 seconds farter in one year.

        Boxing": In my early 30's I jumped competed in the Diamond Gloves Tournament came in second place. When your an amatures you pay for boxing & losing jobs from multiple lay-offs I didn't stay too long & now a schedule that wont allow me....

        I wish I would kept on with football though.

            Was it for a mundane reason like dicking the coach's daughter, or something hectic like dicking his wife as well?

              Well that's rather sad. Unfortunately, many dudes with potential end up doing the same.

                Basketball. I'm actually a varsity player in high school, but to be honest, it's not really an "accomplishment" lol. We're not really competing with other schools. Only one other private school that is our neighbor.

                  American football, baseball/softball/stickball, basketball. Boxed, but got off to a late start, so any aspirations of turning pro were squelched during amateur fights. A later became a USA Boxing trainer and coach. Trained military boxers for inter-service competition and Olympic trials. Also trained locals as well.

                    Played basketball and football in middle school up until Freshman year in highschool.
