re: Ever been part of a sports team (h.s. and above) that was completely drubbed in a game?

Yes, Freshman year (1992) We (St Anthony) played Lytle, Texas and we were comically outmatched, and I forget the score. We were a very small school with very few subs. By the 4th quarter we were just playing on pride. I hated that we lost but had such an adrenaline rush for just finishing the game. The Next week we beat Antonian.

Kelvin York (Dutchtown) running back hit my curveball so hard it still hasn't landed yet.

7th grade basketball. All white team I was apart of played an all black team in an AAU basketball game. It was 42-0 at halftime.

Nutt used to let his players have intramural basketball teams.


Needless to say, when our Pomfret Honors Dorm team played them, it was pretty comical.

High School baseball, lost to Neville in the State Semis in Br 14-3.

Bubby Brister pitched for Neville.

So you grew up in Misssissipi? I thought you were a Baton Rouge guy. How did your journey take you to Baton Rouge?

Nope, but the school I went to regularly played private schools in Mississippi at the time. We joined the Mississippi Private School Association my freshman year. We'd go to Woodville, Centreville, McComb and play games. We played schools in LA too like Silliman. It was sort of a regional sports league with schools from both states at the time.

The school left the Louisiana Independent School Association in 1992 to join the Mississippi Private School Association (MPSA). The MPSA changed its name in 2009 to the Mississippi Association of Independent Schools (MAIS), which renamed itself the Mid-South Association of Independent Schools the day Central Private departed.[5]

Some guys I know played local rec league basketball put on by one of the bigger churches that has a gym. They offer a “competitive” and “non competitive” league. They get a big head and go for the competitive league. Week 1 opponent has a guy on the team who is in the G-League. His teams first trip down the court is a highlight-worthy alley oop off the backboard. The next hour is them getting absolutely dragged in front of their wives, who came to watch.

We got run-ruled in our coed slow-pitch softball game last night.

I played for a team that was undefeated in Class C softball.

We played a Class A team in a tourney and lost 29-0.

Class A softball is where you find former pro athletes and high performing college players.

Yes, been playing rugby since high school, and play any sport long enough and you're going to be on the shite end of things every so often.

Worst was probably playing Life University in college. This was one of the first years that they played Division 1 College Rugby as previously they were restricted to playing as a D1 Men's Club. We were a Top 10 team then but the difference between a club side and a full varsity program is too much. Kept it close in the 1st half, then ran out of gas.

Been on the receiving end on a few lopsided scores playing against a certain men's club who will play professional players against us occasionally.

I went to a small private school in central Mississippi. Played basketball, baseball and football. One game I do recall my sophomore year in football, I was playing defensive back against another small school from Natchez that had one really good particular running back. Well midways bout the second quarter said running back runs around the end on a toss sweep and I take off for him. I went in for the tackle and my outside linebacker was right beside me at the time of impact and tripped me and my head hit the running backs middle thigh and I got my first concussion and had to come out of the game. They ended up killing us my sophomore and junior year because of that one player. Luckily we didn't have to play them again my senior year.
But that running back later signed with LSU and went on from there to the patriots.
Good times.
