The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for September 11, 2021

Maybe Wilberforce needs some lessons on basic football.

She’s a southboot?

Left-footed.

I see that football is not Wilberforce’s forte!!

/SHMIRK/

Hatty has talents previously unknown!

When I was 11 years old I won a softball throwing contest. ( female. Me, not the softball) :~)

So let me get this straight… Americans call football, soccer and they call a rugby ball, a football ?

He is his father’s son.

that’s interesting. why would she kick the football with her left hand, wouldn’t your foot do a better job kicking it? :D

once again young wilberforce has been wrong-footed…

The kid is a born loser!

Why a football is called pigskin – was first used = pig bladder…. Americans call football, football AND soccer, soccer. Rugby is just a foreign term. Like scrum. And I wish they didn’t ruin Baseball by trying to play two games in LONDON. Begging for dollars. Spending billions.

What’s odd Hurricane is to see a pitcher that pitches left handed – hit right handed. Now there’s an odd ball.

In “This Sporting Life” of 1963 Richard Harris’ character plays rugby, which he calls “football.” With some children he plays association football and calls it “soccer.” He also says, “We don’t have stars in this game, Mrs. Weaver. That’s soccer.” So even in the U. K. usage varies, it seems.

Uh oh. I sense a Charlie Brown – Lucy moment.

The answer to that question is a definite yes. Don’t attempt to go any further in explaining. Interesting though it might be. I too have a similar situation. I throw a football, baseball etc with my right hand; yet I shoot baskets with my left in basketball……

Like father like son. Nice to know the second generation will be carrying on the family “business”!

I wonder if he’s related to Lucy???

Well, she wasn’t specific.

Most right handed people kick from the left side, but they use their right foot.

I throw left and bat/kick right.

I’m the same way. Right-handed, left-footed.

Throw left – kick right

no silly, she throws the football left-footed
