i played football and baseball all four years in high school. lettered 3 times in baseball. i played center most and pitched, but i wasn't in the rotation, just relief. I've always been a lead-off hitter, ever since i was like 11 years old, in little league. Baseball is hecka tight, and I would definetely still be playin in college if it wasn't for me breaking my humorous and tearing the labrum on my throwing shoulder playin football. Now I just ski, which isn't to bad to fall back on (ya right, like there is anything better). I loved baseball, though. I think a lot of people don't understand how dynamic the game is, how many different thiings are going on all at once, just because they never really competed at a high level. You gain so much appreciation for it if you were lucky enough to have awesome coaches in high school and really begin to understand the game, and be a student of it. Football is really the only sport that compares on that point. Ya, it's tight, what else can i say.
