I Don’t Play Softball…

Calvin & Hobbes Baseball

I’m beginning to think that I can’t really tell people that “I don’t play softball” anymore.  Although I really don’t think I play softball.  The thing is that for someone who doesn’t play softball, I’ve played a lot of softball.  I’ve played in intramurals, I’ve played for fun, I’ve even played in a softball tournament.  So I guess, it really is a lie to say that “I don’t play softball”.  I should say, “Softball is not my sport of choice” or “I don’t really like softball”.  I guess in mind though, to say that I play softball is equivalent to saying that I am good at softball and I’m not.  So it makes it hard for me to say anything besides “I don’t play”.  I’m not good at softball.  I think I can bat okay but the whole throwing and catching thing isn’t very good.  I have this problem where I throw the softball like a football.  Therefore, I cannot throw it accurately to the person.  It usually ends up to their right and on the ground.  Because this happens, I don’t have confidence in throwing it and end up throwing it worse most of the time.  Anyway, I think that I can play softball when it is for fun, just rec ball.  But when it gets all serious and competitive, then I get scared and lose confidence.  But I’ll still play if everyone goes out to play.

But really guys, I don’t play softball softball is not my sport of choice.
