Why am I only good at the sports I hate?

[Barnabas]

I like volley

Have you tried tennis?

Yeah. Takes a while to get into it though. I can't serve.

What part of "game" do you not understand?

Sloww, I think you'd better sit down for this. I don't want you to hurt yourself.

Ready?


Not everything is about you, Tex.

Snooker is not a subset of pool. It has table six times bigger, to start with.

I count all "strike the ball with a cue" games as "pool".

Me, too. 8 ball, 9 ball, Asher ain't got no balls, whatever.

Having to do with geometry.

I need to take a break from the intramurals.

I was doing my regular running routine (~50 k a week) and dealing with the constant knee pain. Then we played intramural basketball, and in our 3rd game I rolled an ankle pretty bad. That was 5-6 weeks ago and it's still bothering me (I think I might have damaged my Achilles tendon in addition to the taleofibular ligaments).

Then the IM football season started up. I managed to overthrow my arm in one of our practices (I'm the backup QB) and it's on fire from my shoulderblade to my elbow. Now we're onto volleyball at the same time as football, and it's not helping.

I've had to stop running because of my ankle, and my weightlifting routine is suffering too. This sucks...

You're getting old, KH. Accept it.

[KrazyHorse]

I know I am. The recovery time from injuries is 2-3 times what it used to be.

[KrazyHorse]

Our football coach/manager sent out an injury report on the team. My status was listed as "probable" with my injury listed as "being old (ankle/arm)"

[SlowwHand]

I have bad news for you. it doesn't get any better.

[ZEE]

after my back surgery... i was DONE. it dosent hurt... but the Dr. said i have the back of a 90 year old man. We all get old KH...

[KrazyHorse]

That's fine. 8 months ago I was in the best shape of my life (cardiovascularly). Ran the 5 k in 18:12

I had to ease off the running for a while, but that allowed me to get stronger (in better muscular shape than I've ever been before now).

I just need to stop getting injured. Being a bit older really does kill you when it comes to injuries. They take forever to heal.
