For those of you who are fans of any professional sport(s), did you ever dream of being a professional player?

 



From a young age, approximately 7 or 8 years old, I’ve always loved professional football. When I was about 11 or 12 years old, I fantasized about one day as an adult being a wide receiver or a running back in the NFL (National Football League), but not once in my life have I ever played the sport as part of any organized team or league, such as at school or in the community. I only played it in the backyard with my brothers, cousins, friends, and at the schoolyard with classmates.

    I was not good, hence never thinking professionally. Fun, though!

      That makes sense.

    Does that mean you had aspirations for becoming one, or was it merely written from an observational perspective?
