Mr. Kennedy: The only thing I ever practiced for in my life was basketball.
Mr. Kennedy: I really wanted to get on the basketball team, so I practiced and practiced, every day after school for a semester.
Mr. Kennedy: Finally, I went to try out. Now, I wasn't in the best shape, so I knew I was on the edge.
Mr. Kennedy: I knew that I had to do something really impressive right then and right there if I wanted to make the team.
Mr. Kennedy: I got the ball, and instead of passing, I knew the only way I could impress the coach was if I shot a three-pointer right then.
Mr. Kennedy: So I got into the best position I could and shot.
Student: Did you make it?
Mr. Kennedy: It didn't even go in the right direction.
// Mr. Kennedy then explained that he never practiced for anything ever again.
