Football is a pasttime of mine, and could have been a future scholarship for me before I broke my back in varsity high school.

Injury here as well, but off-field and to my right leg. Pretty much tore it to shreds. Not a big deal mentally, considering I never wanted to play college sports. They were just fun experiences with friends, and looked nice to colleges as a peripheral interest. The injury wasn't going to matter to the schools I was interested in. Wound up in a very good school in the area that my parents would have never been able to afford straight up.
Being a fan has certainly had an impact on my life as well. Stats have amazed me since I got my first baseball cards. 1987 Topps! I still remember every card in the pack. I suppose I could have collected them and never cared about the watching sports, but that would be a bit unusual.
