I have to admit that I don't really play a lot of sports. I have always been the smallest, slowest kid and the one always to be picked last. This was even true before I became sick with lung cancer. That didn't make things better because now I have only one lung and that can be a problem at times. So I get to sit and watch more times than I like.
People believe that winning the game is the most important thing.
Things like having fun and everyone getting a chance to play doesn't seem as important anymore. I would get a chance to go behind the scenes when a real game was starting and even stand on the field in Fenway Park. I could actually meet Tim Wakefield. Maybe I could even catch or throw a ball with him. I started to learn more about Tim Wakefield.
