What was you worst / most embarrassing sports moment
Think this was asked a few years ago, but here goes.
Mine would be 5th grade baseball, came in as pitcher with a comfortable 5 run lead late in the game. Got shelled so hard walked off mound with hat over face, and crying.
Probably gave up 9 runs in under 5 minutes. With 0 outs, fucking awful performance.

I thought of another one. In 8th grade football I had lost my starting QB position to a new kid in school who was good at running the option and that was the new thing. So it took me a while to learn some other positions and start getting on the field on offense. We had a position called the Z, basically a slot receiver, that got some run plays and was the first target in every pass play in the offense even though we had wideouts and a TE. Anyways, I was getting moved into that position. As a side note, I played safety on defense...single high and was good at it. I was way better on defense and way more into it.
Anyways, I finally got on the field as the Z, but had my head up my ass so bad that I lined up at safety. The QB didn't notice and started the count. I looked around right then and panicked. I tried to go into some kind of motion from 15 yards deep to the right slot and they snapped the ball. Fucking coach stood over there screaming at me about it and I never did get a chance to explain what happened. Oh well. Fuck that coach lol.
Coach calls timeout. Walks up to me and quietly says, “Now, when we go back out there, let’s run our fucking offense, OK?”
Whole team is laughing. But it was pretty cool that he told me I was a dumbfuck in a way that none of the parents or anyone watching (all 16 of them) could hear.
Same year, a “buddy” pulls my shorts (the kind with the built-in jockstrap) down to my ankles in gym class during warmups in front of about a dozen 14-year-old girls.
Embarrassing yeah, but I never had a problem getting dates after that.
Freshman year was special.
Stench was a most untoward experience. Whole files stunk like a Mumbai slum. 2 minutes to half coach sends in a replacement and I send him back to the sideline so I don’t have to go to the sideline in my WHITE PANTS and have the crowd examine the shit stain.
Missed the halftime speech as a couple back ups Jose me down on the shower for 10 minutes. Finished the game in a soaked, very stinky all white uniform.
Senior year of football in a first round playoff game, against another small town school that took football very seriously and traveled well. I wore old school knee braces that had these hanger straps that ran up the inside of the pants and hooked on the belt. Damn things were constantly coming undone. In this case, the braces became terribly tangled up and I could barely move because they slid down so far. I came off field following an offensive series, went to far side of bench, and without thinking much dropped trow to fix the situation as quick as I could. I gradually become aware of a commotion behind me, and turn around to see that I'm directly in front of the visitors section and am being heckled by the cheerleaders, students, and parents. Good tims.
