Geek rugby fail

4/6/2014

0 Comments

 
School boy rugby became much more entertaining for the spectators during my one and only season on-field. If youtube had been available during the sixties, this video could have gone-viral in the “fail” category of funny sports videos.

I suspect my ineptitude was primarily caused by “not knowing the rules”, coupled with a lack of natural athlete ability plus a sprinkling of sheer stupidity. The school insisted that everybody play a physical sport (being a member of the Chess Club did not satisfy the criteria), so unfortunately for my team members, I decided to play rugby.

For some reason, writing computer code came more naturally and having passed the famous “aptitude tests” that were all the rage during the early computer employment process, I settled into a geek career that spanned forty five years, and it still continuing today.

The purpose of the Geek Geek video is to “remember to have fun”, to laugh at myself and to offer hope to other “geeks” who prefer to play a non-contact computer game rather than a full-contact physical game.

    My mother's last words to me before she died were "Keith, don't die with your dreams inside you!"
    Every day, someone, somewhere dies with "their dreams" unfulfilled. My passion is to reach out to others and help them to achieve their purpose and their destiny.
    On many occasions I have taken the road less travelled resulting in spectacular crashes and heartache for myself and those closest to me.
    Each day is a gift from God, another chance to "learn and grow", to "pay it forward" and to "make a difference".
