I dont think my high school had a football team. Volleyball was the big sport at my high school for some reason, and I think we might have also had a basketball team. Either way, I wasnt on any kind of sports team in high school.

I am not a man and never have been. But I can say that being in band made me a football fan. I dont think I ever would have been otherwise.

JV for Freshman and Sophmore year. Wasn't good enough to join Varsity in my Junior year so I didn't bother to sign up for JV.

Was good enough to do Varsity Tennis though.

I was in band and football in 8th grade in middle school and was only band in high school. I wasn't planning to play football in high school, but I got viral meningitis the summer before 9th grade. That knocked out any chance of me ever playing football.

I've never even played football, ever. Not even just for fun. I don't even know the rules really. It's the one major American sport that I have never understood. The others are easier to understand.

No. Our football team sucked anyway.

I played baseball in first grade and the basketball in elementary and middle school. Never played any sports beyond that.

Yes. But I rarely got off the bench. I was third/fourth string QB.

I was starter in basketball (3 years) and baseball (2 years).

Nope but freshman year, the coach did court me because I was 350lbs. I was only like 5'7" at the time though and a lot of fat on a small frame, so I'm thinking he just wanted a crash test dummy more than an actual player.

I didn't really consider the offer but I really wasn't going to do it after one of the seniors was paralyzed on the field.

High school football should be abolished btw.

I wasn't into sports. I was the top player on the academic bowl team.

One time for fun I went back and looked at how my school's football team did years after I graduated. Turns out they had a 6 season stretch where they never scored a single touchdown the whole 6 seasons.

I played in 7th and 8th grade. I started my freshman year but switched to cross country instead.

I didn't enjoy getting run over by 18 year olds as a 15ish year old with a distance runners body. Plus the weightlifting element to be a decent varsity player didn't appeal to me.

In my state there was 7 and 8 level football through the middle schools.

In HS there was varsity, jv, and freshman depending on how many kids wanted to play. My freshman year we had just a varsity amd jv squad.

No, but I was in the film making class and got in to every sporting event free so I could film games for the coaches to watch back.
It was cool being on top of the announcers booth. Made me feel important.

Well, not really. It was fun to go to the high school games for free and hang out with everyone.
I did go on to attend a few hockey games and a baseball game, though.
