Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 2472906, member: 93"] I wasn't either, but during my freshman year at UConn I was home during one of the breaks and my step-mother came out to throw something in the garbage while I was shooting hoops around the basket in our driveway. I made a couple shots in a row while she was out there and the following exchange transpired: Her: "Hey, that's pretty good [8893], have you thought about trying out for the team at school?" Me: "Uhhhh, no. They're like really good and it's not something you just try out for." Her: "See, now that's just the kind of attitude that will keep you from reaching your potential. How will you know unless you try? What have you got to lose?" Me: "Ummm, yeah. It's not like that. You don't understand...um, hey, what's for dinner?" [/QUOTE]
