GamerDude always fancied himself as an athlete as a kid - even though, as the fat kid growing up, he was anything but athletic.  But he learned about and played baseball, softball, football and basketball with the kids in his neighborhood, and his stories today cover homerun territory over the creek in left field, and the basketball hoop on the telephone pole (because there was no such thing as a portable basketball rim back in the day). He talks about reading all the books he could get his hands on about football, and baseball, and about throwing a ball against the house to practice catching fly balls. He tells stories about his days after college, when he played in a corporate softball league, and his days on the basketball court, playing pickup ball.  He also tells the story of his greatest athletic moment as a weekend warrior - the only buzzer beater of his life to win a game for the WRNJ All-Star basketball team. It's moments like that that make sports worth it.
