Love the one time he is on the field is a drop.

My freshman year in high school there was a Senior on the varsity lacrosse team who wrote an epic poem for his college admission essay about riding the pine. It was fantastic. He was a 3-sport varsity athlete and was last man on the bench for all 3. The thing I remember most about the poem was it built to a big moment in the game where the coach starts screaming his name and telling him to come over to the substitution area.....so he can give the star player his shoelaces to fix the other players lacrosse stick (which actually happened his Junior year).

I was an occasional DH and self-appointed bench captain in HS and I'm jealous as hell of this kid's video. Most games, my only glove action after first pitch was at home because we sat 1B side and my friend played RF. I'd be his pre-inning warmup and every other or third inning, I'd try to put the last throw just over his reach so he'd either have to make a huge effort jumping catch or go chase the ball down. I received no offers.

At least they gave this kid a uniform.

They got rid of football at my high school the year I arrived - in my neighbourhood, half of the parents are lawyers and I guess they were worried about lawsuits.

So I went out for the rugby team (school was a provincial powerhouse in the sport). Third practice, the coach told me to switch to fullback. I asked him ho far back I should go and he said "see those apartment buildings over there. That should be far enough."

It was the end of my high school sports career.

Anyone else just getting a still picture with no video on that?

Google The Lenihan Factor and see if any of the other links work better.

That's what I had to do. Then, I had to disable FlashBlock completely and reload the page.
