August 8, 201610 yr I'm not talking about playing it in the backyard or during recess/PE at school, but a sport where you were actually on an organized team & you really sucked. BY FAR, it's soccer for me. What about you?
August 8, 201610 yr I only played basketball and baseball for organized teams and I didn't suck at either one of them. I just quit when everyone else was better than I was. :lol2:
August 8, 201610 yr Rec league soccer as a youngster and basketball in HS. Edited August 8, 201610 yr by SnottieDrippen
August 8, 201610 yr Golf. No doubt about it. I was never on a "team", but I took lessons as a kid. That damn white ball defies the laws of physics once it leaves the face of my club. I officially gave up golf for life about a decade ago.
August 8, 201610 yr Tennis, I have no idea why. I was decent at all other sports, but never tennis, I am and was truly awful.
August 8, 201610 yr Anything on skates, I'm awful. I can skate in a straight line, but can't stop or turn. Ugh.
August 8, 201610 yr Tennis, I have no idea why. I was decent at all other sports, but never tennis, I am and was truly awful. I was going to say tennis also but I was never on a team. I could never learn to serve. I could do everything else but couldn't serve so I was too embarrassed to tryout for the team in high school.
August 8, 201610 yr I guess soccer. I at least played basketball and baseball at some point in high school. I quit soccer after 7th grade, although I led my team in goals scored each of my last two seasons.
August 8, 201610 yr I played a season of intramural floor hockey while in college. Turns out most guys played hockey in high school (it's a pretty big sport in the Philadelphia area). It's hard to be good at a sport that you never played before when playing with guys that had been playing for years. Easily the most humbling athletic experience in my life.
August 8, 201610 yr I got cut during tryouts for the middle school basketball team every year and gave it up after that. Did you know that Michael Jordan was also cut from his basketball team? Did you know that I am also not Michael Jordan?
August 8, 201610 yr Anything on skates, I'm awful. I can skate in a straight line, but can't stop or turn. Ugh. This! The wife still makes fun of me about the time I tried to roller blade.
