I just absolutely BLEW basketball tryouts. I'm bad at drills, which we did all of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Today was the scrimmage, my saving grace, and I got a team full of ballhogs. Doesn't really matter, though. My shot was extremely off today, so even if I had gotten the ball once in awhile, it wouldn't have done me a bit of good. At this point, if the coach says on Monday that I made the team, I will laugh really hard.
Thing is, I don't really care anymore. I realized yesterday that there was way too much competition at the guard spot. Basketball's not exactly my forte, and I'm pretty short. The main reason I don't care anymore is someone is starting a Couch Team for people not playing basketball, and he told me before tryouts today about it and that I could be in it if I didn't make the team. Now that I pretty much have no shot at making the team, I'm actually pretty happy about it.
What do you do on this Couch Team, you might ask? YOU SIT. Hell yes. What's awesome is that it's actually two cool people running it right now. Up until maybe halfway through 8th grade, I just dicked around and didn't give a shit what people thought about me. Then I realized that's kind of stupid, so I started to act less stupid in school. I've been becoming better friends with the people generally regarded as "popular" (the one that came up with the idea is actually going out with the hottest girl in our class :O ), and there's only one of the kids I hung out with from 8th grade that goes to my high school, so yay for not being an outcast.
Anyway, to avoid this being a "lol post" post, post some weird sports teams / clubs / etc. from your school.
By the way, for anyone in TWG, yes, this probably means I am going to start playing again and actually have time for the game.
