Would like this thread to be about a funny thing while you were playing a sport, any sport. This happened to me...
I was the pitcher for the Comstock Casino city league softball team. During the game on a foul pop-up down the first base line, I went over to catch the ball, but got knocked down by the runner going to 1B. Everyone was concerned, but my dark glasses were busted up. On the next pitch, the same batter popped up again roughly in the same spot and as I went to catch it, I saw out of the corner of my eye the runner freeze at home plate thinking he was out. I decided to let the ball bounch then catch it. I turned to the batter and stared him down. Then ignoring my 1B man to toss it to him I slowly walked over to the bag and stepped on it. My team laughed at the batter as he was too chicken to try to blind-side me again. At the end of the game my whole team said that I pitched good. Unfortunately as well as I pitched, the opposing team would hit the ball to my players, but they couldn't field, not catch flies or threw to the wrong bases. Yes, I pitched real good, even though we lost 28-0. I still have my Comstock jersey and cap. The cap still fits, but alas, the jersey does not. I plan on giving it to my G'daughter.
So, any funny sports stories that happened to you or you were involved in?
