Speak about your moments of awesome here. I made this up becuse today in P.E. class, I dribbled up behind the 3 point line, turned around, threw the ball behind my back at the hoop,
and I got nothin' but net.

That reminds me of the time I was telling my friend that although my aim is good enough, I'm too weak to throw a three pointer. Then "See look this is my hardest." *heaves ball at the net* Swish.

also, i was playing flag football, and i juke 2 guys out, run down the left sideline.
i'm a couple yards from the end zone, and two guys are coming on either side of me.
I jump, do a 360, and land in the end zone with flag still intact for a TD.

So I was playing softball in our MS gymnasium 2 or 3 years ago (Haven't had gym since) and I got a double to left. I have a ton of speed, so I try to go to third while the new batter was up. It turns out, on the throw from the C, it hit my back and into left field. On my way to home plate, the throw was in time, but I jumped over the Catcher and landed on Home Plate. I was safe. Probably my best moment of awesome.

Playing Mario Kart with my brother on Mario Circuit(The Flower Cup one) heading into the final turn I'm way ahead of him but then I get Spiny Shelled and I hit a banana. He does a wheelie as he blows past me(someone uses a blooper at the same time) then I turn and knock him off his wheelie and win the race by 0.03 seconds. From the spiny shell to the finish was about 3 seconds. :lol:

Dunking booth on the last school day, aka Senior Day. The hottest teacher (female of course) in the school is sitting in the dunk part. I pay for my balls and do my windup, Boom she goes in the drink! Cheers and pats on the back followed. Pitch 2, Boom she goes in again. Now It's chaos, I'm just standing there with no emotion (Pokerface). And the teacher running the thing says I can only do three in a row then I'm done for the day. I ask the crowd that has gathered what pitch I should throw, I hear the pitch I want. I windup and throw a Curve, Boom she goes in the drink again. I fist pump and walk away a legend.

Also last year another awesome moment happened, I was playing a CYO Basketball game against some scrub team, we were up by like 20 or something but I was still in. I got a steal and went on a breakaway, I heard someone yell "DUNK!" so I accelerated took an angle and liftoff! I flew for what seemed like forever and threw down a monster dunk, the crowd went crazy as did my bench. I just stood there and basked in the glory. (Note: I was 6'6" :lol: )

I was playing dodgeball yesterday...
I had one nerf ball in my grasp, when somebody throws a ball just out of my reach (I'm 5' 2" :P )
I knock it up with my ball, switch it to my left hand, and look up to see where the ball went.
I hit it again with my free hand, and it goes behind me. I do a 180 and bobble the ball two MORE times, and it goes forward past my outstretched arms. As a desperation chance, I dive and somehow trap the ball between my other ball and my hand, so the thrower was out. :mrgreen:

(i hope that this counts even though its about power pros)

i was playing through 07 success w/ "my" uber pitcher (i got him of an AR codebreaker thing, he started the second week of year one w/ max pitching stats all abilities and 11 (max) maxed out pitches (though i changed wat the pitches were, i have a maxed original (1 upgrade) slow curve, better change up) and he started with max money ($99,999, maybe can get more...) and max points (str, tech, quick, brk ball, etc.) and right b4 the last Patrick game (to earn College Series berth) he had A contact, power, and run spd, c arm str, A fld and A E res, he had a perfect game going into the top of the eighth, World Gatherings got 2 hits no runs. Bottom of 8th my guys go 3 up 3 down (including my pitcher, who bats 3rd) Top of 9th with the tulips up 3-0 the World Gatherings score 4 and then Mark gets on base (bottom 9th) and i pince hit alvin who hits walkoff HR (my guy: 20 K's)

alright, this one's from my football days, it was my senior year and it'd rained the whole week...only for the rain to stop about 15 minutes before the game started :evil: (I REALLY wanted to play this one in the rain, it was a dream of mine...but I'll take muddy quagmire)...and anyways, I'm starting at DT against one of our arch rivals. They ran a middle screen...or tried to, anyway, and I broke off my rush to drop back into coverage. Sure enough, the QB threw it right where I was going, and there was literally nobody else within 5 yards of me. If I picked it off, it'd be a helluva story, but I can't jump very high and ended up only tipping it enough to fall incomplete (still, better incomplete than they get a first down on that play). I'd like to tell ya we won, but then i'd be lying. in spite of returning two picks for TDs (one of which happened after one of their linemen gave me a headbutt, so I was on my back for about 30 seconds), we lost on a 47 yard field goal that took a lucky bounce off the crossbar...yeah, unfortunately unlike most HS teams (among them us), our rivals had a real kicker.

Man i've had a couple of moments of awesome idk where to start....but i think the best one comes in a span of about three years, in my junior high days. I love soccer..... way more than any sport, although i love sports in general. So in junior high the main sport was soccer (i'm from Los Angeles). So i'm a pretty good all-around soccer player, but I love making plays and scoring, and during my junior high years I was reaching peaking plateau of my playing years. So playing soccer everyday, for around two hours a day in middle school, I can easily say i scored a tremendous ammount of goals.... roughly around 500 goals!!! And some real amazing and beautiful ones............. ah the glory days, how they are missed!
