Although I was never very good at or interested in team sports growing up, preferring to stick to sports like tennis and track, I've found that as an adult, they can actually be a lot of fun. My athletic ability and willingness to at least try to play has increased, but there is another factor that makes team sports more appealing. Alcohol. On the recreational level at least, its completely fine to drink a little before, during and after the game. In fact, the whole point is to hang out with your friends, play a game for an hour, and go out afterwards. Prior to playing beach volleyball in Chicago, my last memories of volleyball definitely included being yelled at by a gym teacher. Now I'm in love with the game.

Don't be too hard on Snively...but yes, I hear you. I took gym the last semester of high school and I always thought I hated it until then...at that point I was kicking myself for not trying out for the team. Still am, in fact!
I'm still traumatized from gym class, and I ended up taking a class at LCC to avoid taking it in hig school. It goes back as far as elementary school really (who was the guy with the wart on his forehead?), but Snively certainly was a taskmaster wasn't she?
