Billy Bob an' sports

I been sit'n here think'n bout what I'm gonna do today. I rekon I could sit here another hour or so an' still not know.

I'll tell ya how bad it is, the old Billy Bob has been watch'n football. I don't like football. I don't like baseball neither. An' basketball.....oh hell no. Give me a good fish'n pole an' a couple golf balls, an' I'm happy with sports.

I remember one time I thought I was gonna be a football player. The coach assigned me as the center....that's the guy that hikes the ball an' then gets smashed into the ground by some great big  dude what weighs 250 pounds. I know, 'cause that what happen to me.....every time I hike the ball. One inning of this kind'a gameplay, an' I was finished with my silly idea to be a star football player. Ok, it weren't a inning with strike three you're out or nuttin like that. It was bout 15 minutes...tops. I tell the coach, "I cain't do this shit no more".

Then there was baseball. I was think'n, "what could be so hard bout this"? "The ball Billy Bob, the ball is a "very hard" ball". I got hit in the back with that hard ball. Hit on the head with that hard ball. I had lumps on top of lumps. One game an' I was finish with my baseball career. Sides that, I swing at the ball like a girl. Strike three, you're out.

I try to dribble a basketball one time. Ha, that was a experience I don't even want to remember. I was slap'n that ball one time for every 4 steps. The "Billy Bob dribble ya know". I throw the ball at the basket....gonna make me two points I betcha. Miss the whole damn backboard an' everthing. Not even close. I ain't never been worth a crap at basketball play'n. Coach send me to girls PE to play volleyball.

 Ok....I'm think'n shower an' a trip to Walmart. Out of meds for 4 days now....milk is sour an' bread is moldy. Ain't got no donuts.

  1. Welder park is a nice place for riding a bicycle. It also has the large field for free for practicing golf shots. It is only a matter of getting up and doing it. The three minute drive is well within your driving distance.

  2. I hated PE when I was in school, and always tried to develop some ailment that allowed me to sit on the sidelines. Now I don't like any sports and don't like to watch them either. The trouble with them is all the organization. Didn't you ever just go out into a field with a few kids and play your own baseball game with the rules made by the biggest kid? I can't stand all the coaching of tiny little kids today. Just let 'em play.

  3. The only sport I go see and watch on TV is Top Fuel Drag Racing. And no, B.B., that ain't where the men drivers wear dresses. . .

  4. No sports for me either, not even watching them. Except can watch the grandkids play theirs, soccer, baseball, hockey and stuff like that though.
