I once counted that I lost nearly 10 championship games
in my youth sports career, spanning both soccer and basketball, in league and camp play.
One time, after playing fullback for the entire season, my head coach put me in goal for the championship game despite the fact I had never played goalie in my life. It did not end well.
I later actually did play goalie for a winless soccer team. We were close to winning one until a ball I was trying to snuff was kicked into the goal by my teammate.
I love sports despite being terrible at them.
