3. Neither one plays anymore (1 bad elbow, 1 bad shoulder)
not that I'm particularly proud of feeling good about that, mind you.

18. Who were they?
I shot hoops during lunch with Ernie Camacho. Oh, and in junior high I saw him get into a fight with another kid in P.E.

Talk about a journeyman.

7. No sex threads

13. Outfield...
Little League: I was always stuck in the outfield, usually right field. The coach would always give me his "every position on the team is important" pep talk before sending me out there to languish for the game's duration.

I used to believe him; not anymore...

28. That's the one where they wear funny socks, right?
All those team sports that involve balls flying at your face look alike to me.

Suddenly I had a mental image of the Wicked Witch of the West shouting
"Fly, my pretties! Fly!"...

and I won't complete that mental image. It's just too weird.

30. Well, between pitchers and catchers, there's a lot of flashing
