A variety of sports, most of which I wasn't very good at but that's OK. Kids are all hyper-specialized now. - Baron Kills World May 6, 10:04 4
- good one. true for sure. I played everything now if you don't focus on one sport 24/7/365 you get left behind -- nm* - Beaker 🍺 May 6, 10:13
- it feels a little like if you're not set to go to college on it, you should quit by high school.. what's the point. - colin May 6, 10:07 2

    - i played baseball, tennis, and basketball, but it was all casual stuff, no high school sports. i think it felt like a waste of time at the time.. - colin May 6, 10:31
