Everyone had gym class where the gym teacher chose captains to play different sports. Who here were the last one to be chosen on the teams in each sport. Did that embarass you. The geeks that were chosen last everytime looked so sad.

I don't know about you, but teams were divided by the Groups they set.

We were all in like 15 rows of 8 kids. and they chose which rows were teams and such.

IF there was open gym it be a diff story

Since 3rd grade I was always the first girl and usually chosen before most of the guys. When I did the choosing I would sometimes "bump up" a really poor or otherwise unpopular athlete to prevent them from being last.

The captains are usually people who just volunteer to be captains. Then they go off and draft by themselves elsewhere. Then like once half the class is picked (there are only so many superstars per sport) the coach divides the other half among the teams. Never the worst on my team though, more than once the best :D

My friends and I have always been good athletes, the only sport I really suck in is basketball because I like to take too many jump shots and my shots arc too much and rarely go in. Fortunately all my friends are really good basketball players and are usually the captains so I never get left out.

As for high school gym class, we usually counted off. "1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4" etc.

ughhhh. i hate it when that happens. ALLways the freakin "popular" girls (who by nature SUCK at sports) have to be on the same team. hell even if they get a 1 they lie and go for 2. SO freakin annoying, i hate it so much... fu*ks up the teams

I was usually picked around last for basketball, and with good reason. I was usually one of the first for soccer, and with even better reason. I amy not be good, but people are afraid to have me on the other team due to my inherent disrespect for my body and indifference to pain. (in other words, I like to slam people to the ground)

I was rarely the last, but definitely in the last 1/4. I wasn't really into sports as a kid (My dad's fault!), and was a bit pudgy throughout most of my childhood years (thanks mom and dad for all the coke and chocholate :D). It was embarassing but I don't let it affect me now, cause it's not that big a deal ;)

Definately last or next to last.

Senior year I was often too hung over or inebriated to really care, or remember.

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger after all.

I may still have resentments but fvck it, that's what growing up is about.

I was usually next to last with this other kid in my class.


Until we played hockey. Then they all got pwned by the guy that they thought sucked.

Never got picked last again.

I'm very competitive and was school captain for many sports so I was not usually the ones to pick people. People who were not as good but were trying and putting in effort I picked. The ones I didn't pick were the oens who didn't put effort in. Even more so if they were bad. If they put in effort in I picked them. I found it was usually the girls at my school that no effort in. That p!ssed me off.

Hell I even one Sports Person of the Year in one Year :D

You MAY still have them? :p

It is annoying, but what can you really do about it. It was years ago for me and I could kick all their asses now anyway :evil:

Are you sure they didn't just suck? Thing with girls is that even when they try they stink at sports. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to allow females to play sports in the first place must have been on drugs at the time. I don't even know why they make sneakers that fit women's feet.
