EXTREEEEEEEEEME

[filkertom]

Here are a couple of tricks for you to try when you're bored: the baseball bat ninja move, and the rodeo flip.

My athletic days are, mostly, behind me. I say this because when I was in high school I used to go for the trampolines, both the mini (running launch into a full flip) and the larger one (all kindsa stuff). It'd be nice, but I'd have to lose a lot of weight. Used to be a pretty good hand with a baseball, too. Not batting, though -- one of my first Barney McCloskey League at-bats, I got hit a pitch, and that spooked me for the rest of my lone season. Give me softball, please.

What are your favorite athletic achievements? Recent or dim past.

There was one time I was running the line at a college club soccer game, Colgate v Cornell. These two guys are running down the field, fighting for the ball and elbowing each other as they run. Suddenly, they stop running and just start to duke it out right at my feet.

The center ref looks at me, shrugs his shoulders and says "Take care of it."
