Was anybody else here relatively good at a sport as a little kid but then just gave up on it?
>>
Yeah soccer. Realized I liked women so dropped it like it's hot.
>>
yeah but then I realized later that if I was actually really good I would have been scouted for travel teams and the like

is kickball a sport because i was blasting them over the fences everytime

and yet you stayed a virgin so what was the point

Baseball. Scouted by UM, UCLA and a couple of regional schools age 15 to 17. Consensus was they liked me because i had a 88-90 mph fastball with decent delivery and strong legs, but said i had no future because i was 5'9" with small hands, could never master a secondary pitch (which i was already throwing a sinker) and said i could never make it past rookie ball.

Gave up and discovered pussy and all was better.

Naa, desu i didnt have the heart to fight through and make it. I loved the game but not as a profession.
>>
I was to top sandwich maker in the Publix Miami district for 4 years straight until I accidentally put 2 trendies on a sandwich instead of 3. Never was the same after that
>>
I was a gun at football (soccer). Fast as fuck and had good technical skills.

Then I just started playing too much FIFA and lost the technical skills. Probably could've been really good too.
>>
Did you miss all the "we coulda been pros but X happened: threads we used to have?
>>
I played division 1 AFL up until under 18s, then I stopped to focus on getting good marks in my last year of highschool, then didn't do any sport at uni. I often think about what could have been. A few of the guys who I played with are now playing professionally.
>>
Played soccer as the future Roberto Carlos until I tore my acl
>>
I was pretty good at baseball and basketball. I was the fastest or strongest but I was skilled. Couldn't make grades to play in high school though. I also hated most people on the team's anyway
