Default Do Your Friends Think You're a Nerd or a Geek?

Same here Marty, I was a mid-tier athelete. As a spectator baseball was my favorite, but for participation I favored basketball and track. I spent a lot of time playing basketball but never became very good at it.

Sports is deceptive, when you're young you think that all you need to do is practice and you will become a school star. When you get older you realize that there's a lot more involved. Not only do you need some natural ability, but you need to study the game.

From basketball, Pete Maravich basically made himself into a star.
