Chex you gotta be old like me. Same for me. Invited to tryout camp for the Dodgers and the Braves. They don’t do that anymore.

FYI, I ain’t from here - city, state or country and don’t want to doxx myself since I represent the 0.1% of diversity where I live 
HS: 100m/200m/Long Jump/Soccer champion

About the same Chex. Wanted me to move from catcher to 2nd so my speed wouldn’t be affected plus I was a little light back in the day.

Ha ha, definitely not RC, was earning points on a national license and got to race in a dome or two, when I qualified for the main that was a “win” for me.

HS- Soccer and XC
College- tried the AU club soccer team for about a week. Had a 3 PM algebra class and that's what time they started practice. By the time I could get there, they would be mid/end scrimmage. Never got to know anyone, and had zero chance of making the roster since I couldn't ever make practice or demo any skill. (Chicks dig skills)

HS: football and baseball
College: Had a scholarship offer to a smaller school but decided to go to Auburn instead and enjoy a non-busy schedule. It was a late offer to kick and I had already mentally shifted to just being a student. Ended up just playing intramural football with a group of guys that almost exclusively never played football in their lives which was fun

Having never known a single person to ever do motocross at any level, kind of wild having two here.

I dated a girl that her brother did motor cross. I hopped on his racing dirt bike trying to impress her, and I almost ended up in the hospital. I was not prepared for the difference in power between it and a factory dirt bike.

I raced for a few years as well. You’ve gotta have a little craziness in you to do it at a high level and I didn’t have it. Ended up having to choose between it or traditional sports.

About did the same the only time I’ve gone four wheeling. The step up from my power wheels from back when I was a kid really threw me for a loop.
