Re: Were you picked first or last for the sports team?
I was almost always picked first or near first through most of school. The reason was that I grew very early. As a 12 year old, I was 6 feet, 185 lbs, fast and very strong for that age. I was able to bench 200 lbs without too much trouble when I was 13.
Of course, I'm now 25 and I'm 6 feet, 205 lbs. So I'm a little more normal now. But even through most of high school, I was still one of the biggest and most athletic kids. So I was favored in various gym competitions such as the one described in this post.
