Getting picked in P.E
 

Just watched an episode of king of queens and they had like a line up and the captains pick.


And it reminded me... did you do it at school?

When playing football..


We always had 4 captains having to pick 11 people each 1 at a time, and we stood in a line of 40 of us..

I was always in the top 10 picked..


Where were you picked?

We never had this. Our teacher just picks random captains and gives each team a number. Then he tells gives us a number like 1,2,3,4 and we have to go to that team.

Sorry if that don't really make sense lol :p

Was usually first, second or third picked but never past 5th or 6th

Used to laugh at last picks :joker: it was always fattys or geeks

I was fat, but never last picked (thank god for having friends), but never first picked either :bawling:

:hugesmile:

middle picks were always good, zero expectations (so you can only impress) and at least you have friends

I was one of the last ones picked always, being the unsociable, scrawny kid I was in my youth. Of course most of us who stayed in 24/7 to devour books and computer games later learned when we did hit the streets that these things embellished our wit and imagination far past a lot of the first place picks who are now working in their dad's auto garage, turning us into well rounded, popular, creative people by the time we hit college.

I still can't kick a ball.

Only in primary school.

And I was always one of the first picked cos I was our schools goalie.

Depends what you want out of life I guess

I was always picked near the start but for different reasons. In year 7 & 8 I used to be really sporty and do a lot of running and played a lot of football so was chosen quite high up. Then I got more and more lazy, stopped caring about P.E and (voluntarily might I add :p) joined the group with all the sh*t players where I was chosen first or second because I was the best of a bad bunch :laugh:

Middle, meaning i wasn't great but wasn't hopeless :)

i was last picked because i was generally hated by everybody in high school

the fact that i stood drooling at them in the changing room probably didnt help either

oh and i didnt even do anything in pe i just stood and talked to my gay friend about what happened in bad girls the night before

we used to go swimming mostly for PE in secondary school, I can't remember about normal PE, I know we didn't play soccer though

i have terrible memories of pe :bawling:

i remember once i was annoying this kid in pe and i was like yeah bitch you cant touch me coz the teacher was there and shizz, then the ****ing teacher sent me to collect the cone things at the other end of the field and he went inside so the kid came and punched me :bawling:

im sure it was a set up :mad:

We always did it by numbers in our school.

I was always picked middle-last. Sometimes I would be the "joke" pick. =/

I think the whole picking for PE teams should be banned. It's traumatizing. :(

:worship:

I wanted to be the guy who wasn't laughing at 'fattys or geeks'.

Primary school/start of secondary school I was a pretty good footballer so I always got picked quite quickly.

Then we did Rugby. I was a skinny little s**t and was probably under 5 foot tall at the time so I just got demolished and I hated it. I ended up just not going to P.E, and by the end of school, I used to just skive the afternoons that I had P.E to go down the snooker hall with a couple of mates.

:worship:

I skived PE for loads of year 10 & 11.

That for stuff like Basketball and Cricket ^
Then for stuff like rowing I was the cox and always chose who was in the boat :D

Sometimes in school we did this lol. i got picked lol. x

Yeah, it wasn't like I was gonna get a qualification in it, it was just compulsory that the school made you do at least an hour a week. Pointless really, could have been studying something that would have been useful instead.

Probably first half to middle.

I'm alright at P.E just hate it, and don't try, but I was picked because of friends really

Yeah I mean two lessons in Yr 11 I had! That was so pointless. Those two hours could have been put to much better use. :mad: Oh well it was fun bunking. :D

I just sneak out the little back door in our hall and either sleep outside in the shade if it was coming up to Summer, or go and get a coffee or something if the School Gate is open and then make it back in time for the end of the PE Class.

I think its always been done by numbers at my school, well for bigger teams like football. But then for basketball or badminton etc you just kinda got to form your own team/choose partner.

Choosing partners was always so horribly awkward. :(

Skiving P.E is actually the best. They don't really care even in your last year, they don't bother checking who's there and who isn't

wtf

The one in a boat?

what ****ing school did you go to :shocked:

:laugh:
I'm still there

But our school does loooads of sports; Rugby, Hockey, Football, Climbing, Rowing, Athletics, Cricket etc :p

Our teams were already decided for us in everything...A Team and B Team. I was B Team for everything apart from swimming :( I'm a hopeless footballer. I just stood in defence bitching about teachers and avoiding everyone.

Yeah, only the PE teachers use the paper register. The rest do it on a laptop.
I was always in defence as well. :D I'd avoid everyone. :laugh3:

Ours don't even do a register :L

They do for every other subject, just P.E they never do

I don't think I took any games seriously. Rugby I just refused point blank - there's no way I was picking up my teeth after being shoved in mud for half an hour.

And of course, there was the best game ever - tennis. Or, as every teenager in the country played, orgasm-tennis. Exaggerated grunts and screams :love:
