Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
I played perpetual right field as a pre-teen. Pretty much sucked at all sports. Played some house league soccer in my 30s and 40s. Was not a bad goalie.

My brother could've been a pro baseball player. I was the prototypical uncoordinated Jewish kid. I played street ball and football in the neighborhood when I was little. After that, I just rode my bike everywhere. I'd bike to places 20 miles away. I was a good bowler. I played a little tennis. I was pretty good at ping pong. And an excellent swimmer, but not competitively.
But mostly, I was in school bands. I did marching band for every football game.
In college, I was required to do 3 years of phys-ed. I did track, golf, squash, lacrosse, bowling, volleyball. I was at least as good as the engineering students from Pakistan and Turkey.
I didn't start skiing until I got out of college and moved up to Boston. I'm solidly intermediate.

ha, so was i really. i mean golf? could it be more of a suburban white kid sport? i never even played more than touch football.
at summer camp, when it rained they tooks us bowling. i could get the ball to do that curvy, spinny thing. i was kinda proud of that.
I also spent a summer at a sleepaway camp in Virginia as a golf counselor. we would spend like 2 hours every morning at the range. i mean how long can you teach a bunch of preteens how to hit? so i really practiced how to do that thing where you bounce a ball off a pitching wedge. i got really good at it.
I assume you're talking about my brother. He was a good outfielder, and a solid hitter. He did that Pennsylvania baseball camp one summer. But the trumpet won out, he got a music teaching degree.
Of course it was.
i can't field a pop fly to save my life. i am very willing to throw myself in front of a grounder though. that led to multiple bruises.
A good outfielder can predict where the ball is going as soon as it's hit, and then book it to that spot. It's like intercepting missiles.
He's disgustingly ageless. Mrs Scotch is mesmerized by him. I say that hair coloring and plastic surgery is responsible. She's not buying it.
yeah but she picked you and i'm pretty sure she could have any man ever so well done.

my last gf had a thing for chris tucker. he has muscles and is black so that was hard to compete with. but he's also short so i got him on that front. and he's not even the funniest chris...uhhh...chris farley, chris rock?
