Ok lets hear your Bernsteinan intramural nailed a 3 at the buzzer after your coach ran a ton of stuff moment. As a 12 year old I led off our little league all star game with a homer. Much like Jack O Callahan, I didn't know that would be my life's peak. Whats yours?

Back in the late 90's, when the Bulls were kicking ass and taking names, they used to have a halftime contest called "The Million Dollar Shot". One random schmoe from the crowd had a chance to win $1,000,000 by hitting a shot from the opposite free throw line.

One day, my brother and I went to the park on Winfield Rd in Winfield, just north of the hospital, to shoot some hoops. I decided to try the shot, and I swished it on the first attempt. I'm so glad I had a witness.

In my last little league Allstar game my cousin Brother and I where batting 3-4-5 me in 5 slot we all homered back to back in the first inning.
Also,Freshman in High school swimming team went undefeated. When we went to sectionals we finished 2nd was awesome.

I was on a team that won a state title in football. I had absolutely no impact on that title as I got in 8/14 games and had one tackle.

Scored 42 points in a basketball game one time.

But probably the 2 that I am the most proud of are:

- Junior year of high school I was starting varsity 3B and was the first infielder in school history to go the entire year without an error.

- In my last high school baseball game we faced former NIU Huskie basketball star TJ Lux. He was a helluva pitcher. He had a no-hitter going and was throwing amazing. I broke up the no hitter with a single to RF.

I was the best fielder in little league by a mile (I could of went pro if they had designated fielders in the MLB). Was playing deep in centerfield vs some big, fat kid who could crush the ball and he hit a one hopper at me and I threw him out at first base by a mile. After the inning, as my team went nuts over it, I tried to act all cool about it like it was no big deal before finally cracking the biggest grin ever.

Solid 7 pin. doug - ep was on my team and had the shot on video. I thought I was light, but after seeing it a couple of days later, I buried the shot.

Mind you, the game before that, I had the front 10 with a solid 10 pin for a 289.

As I am never going to get on the air with this one, even though I might try, is when Bernstein does talk about this as "Mundane Sports Achievements" he uses an example of one day he took the dog for a walk, dog takes a poop, he goes to fling it into the dumpster and wraps it around the electric line over the dumpster he was aiming for.

This always hits home, as I did the exact same thing.....however, the next night, walking the dog, dog poops, I go for the baggie, pick up the poop....go for the old fashioned slingshot technique and I hit the poop, wrapped around the wire, knocking it off and into the dumpster while the fresh poop wrapped its way around the wire taking the place of the original poop. couldnt be duplicated ever!!

* Guy did hit a 3/4 shot at the Bulls game for a Mill. But Insurance company would not payout as they said the kid lied that he never played any organized ball at any level after HS and it was found out he played 2 games for some Community college on the level of Oakton CC. Thus the insurance company said NOPE.

Uncle Jerry then stepped in and said he would pay him the mill and Uncle Jerry saved the day again while the media praised him as the nicest guy ever. Meanwhile Uncle Jerry negotiated a $700K settlement with the kid, under the terms of the PV of $1M paid over 25 years is really what he won and then went after the insurance company, who paid it off, or they dont get to do business with the NBA no more.

I find the insurance companies tack of "well you played some organized ball, so no soup for you " a fucking joke. As if that had any fucking bearing on making a 75 footer.

Think way smaller. Wouldn't have made Varsity at Polk.

Did you get a TD on the pick return or were you caught from behind?

I knew somebody would ask. Dropped the ball. Flat out running as fast as I could, got to the sidelines, and the ball just fell out behind me. I stopped, and fell on it, but still. Even on my best day I suck.
