    I wanted to be a ranked BMX racer - DId that.

    I wanted to be a great freestyle BMXer - Did that.

    I wanted to race motorcycles - Did that, drag, moto and road.

    I wanted to drag race a car - Did that, 72 Plymouth Duster with 340 magnum engine.

    I wanted to be a rock star - Didnt do that.

    I wanted to be rich - Working on that still.

    Now that I am grown up, I want to be a kid again.

    I never knew what I wanted to do... so now I do nothing! I made it! Seriously I was the kid in this conversation every year:

    Teacher: What do you want to be when you grow up?

    Me: I don't know.

    Teacher: There's nothing that you really want to do?

    Me: I don't know what I want to do.

    and that lasted all the way through High School, and I still haven't found something I WANT to do with my life. I suck at life...

    played soccer since I was 5, Had Indiana , Virginia and BGSU recruiting me heavy my junior year. I made a verbal to BGSU since it was the only school that said I would start right away. Then messed my back up pretty bad playing in a traveling league summer of my junior year. BGSU backed out and here I am.
    My dream was to play pro over seas after college since in 89 the MLS wasnt even around yet. that all went down the drain.
    I got a letter in 94 to come to MLS combine, by then I was 3 years removed from even touching a ball. got massively depressed.
    My second dream is still alive to own a pro sports team. Just a tad short on funds tho.

    I wanted to be a football player. Then I lost a bunch of weight and oddly there is no market for 155 lb left offensive tackles.

    Baseball player. I was really into baseball when i was younger and was pretty fucking awesome at it too. Until about the 6th grade when the other kids started hitting puberty. By highscool I wasnt very good at all and I didnt think about going pro too much after that.
