video proof , pretty much wins this thread

Sophomore year I went to Tulane's baseball camp (back when they were doing really well). It was me and 3 other guys from my high school team. I was the only one under 15 at the time. They put everyone but me in a group the scouts followed (only because it was the older group, I was cut out due to age). I snuck in the group because I didn't want to be alone. My first time on the field taking BP I did extremely well. As I walked off, had a Braves scout ask what position I played and when he found out I wasn't even 15, he wrote my name down. Second round through BP they paid attention. I went back to normal looking like a spaz. I got to feel good about myself for about 2 hours. Still haven't come down from that high

Playing softball tournaments with steve mcnair. Really cool dude, and good family.

Also played against 2 nba 1st rd draft picks in high school Al jefferson and jonathan bender.

I have a few of my personal performances, but those are surpassed by my kids. My son won rec football and baseball championships and later high school baseball state championship. My daughter has won two volleyball championships, a basketball championship, and a softball championship.

Makes me forget my performances.

8 catches for 118...1 td and an INT on d baby

I was on the field for every Saints 'home' game in 2005.

They let me shoot a shirt launcher, blow up the balloon thingies when the Saints ran on the field and scored.

Talked to Jon Gruden, got Urlacher to sign a glove, gave dap to Devery Henderson every time I saw him, Dunn signed s friends helmet, walked in behind Vick after halftime. Bumped elbows with Eva Longoria. Stole a bunch of NFL footballs.

Other than the Saints sucking that year, it was fun as hell.

so beating a black guy at something seems to be the primary goal in LA athletics

yall should take up hockey

I grew up on Long Island. My dads next door neighbor was nose tackle for the jets and we had season tickets. He had 2 girls that had no interest in football so he treated me like a son. Even offered to let me wear his away jersey to a couple games.

Winning a state title in the 4x200 relay. Justin Vincent was our 2nd leg. Opelousas and Devery Henderson came in 2nd place.

Bender absolutely hammered a dunk over top of me his junior year. Guy guarding him backed off so I stepped over to try for the charge as he was coming across the free throw line. Just glad there were no tv cameras around, would have made the highlight reel for sure. But, he tried to drive on me towards the baseline from the wing and put his shoulder down and tried to plow through, I didn't budge. Dude was weak as shite, 6'11 and 215-225 maybe. But could def ball for his size.
