Re: Were you picked first or last for the sports team?

Am I the only one who doesn't think picking is at all bad? I guess in a perfect world, some authority figure splits the teams up evenly or just divides the bottom four, but if the goal is relatively fair teams, isn't picking the easiest way to go?

No I agree picking isn't bad. I got picked last the first bunch of times I played ultimate frisbee because I was absolutely terrible so I definitely know what it feels like. It's disappointing, but it's a pretty realistic assessment of your skills and provides motivation to improve.
The best was in places where one captain is picking all his buddies and the other is trying to pick the best players. The popular team gets slaughtered and then in the future the game becomes less cliquish.
