Catch and Hold.
As crazy as it may seem, I’ve taken a break from kickball this fall and moved onto bigger and better things, er- flag football. Our team is Those Guys, literally. Anyways, this team is built up with some amazing people who I’m lucky enough to call my friends. Friends who don’t judge, but rather laugh with you, which came in handy last night.
Scene: Fifteen seconds left on the clock. Third and goal, guess who ends up open at the goal line? Me. Slow motion, QB opens up, I see it coming and then out of nowhere I find myself screaming “NOOOOO.” Seeing that ball come at me from halfway down the field, knowing that it would be worse to catch it and drop it then to miss it all together— the pressure was too much.
LUCKILY, I caught it.
Touchdown, Those Guys.
