I need to rant. So we were doing outfield drills today and some freshman were grouped with my group. We were going through everything as normal and of course I was working hard, you know sprinting to every fly ball and trying to get under it instead of just jogging over and barely catching it. Well our outfield coach isn't the strictest guy to say the least, and alot of guys jack around when we are out there. So this freshman goes and its a slow roller, and instead of charging it and firing the ball to the guy he was supposed to, he kinda jogs and just lobs it in, no effort whatsoever. So he gets back and I kindly tell him, "Man you need to go full speed, you're not going to get any better." Which he replies with "Do you even play?" Because his older brother starts on varsity and I guess he thinks he is a big shot like his older brother.
Ding! We have a winner for complete moron of the day. For one he totally avoided my question about putting forth effort and getting better. Assuming that he can just come out and everyone will hit exactly to him every single time and he doesn't need to earn his position. Two he doesn't even know who I am. Now I'm not a star, but I go out every single time and play like it is my last game, because I never know what tomorrow will bring, and he acts like he is better than me even though he has never seen my play in my life.
Sorry if this is completely random and so what, but I just needed to vent my anger about this and how no one tries when we do our outfield drills.

Yeah this douchebag corner that thinks he can hit and thinks he's the shit. Black dude that thinks he's from the ghetto and everything when he's a freakin prep, annoys the shit out of me. Which is why I love blocking him, and mossing him, makes it that much better.
And as a catcher in baseball, this gay as hell pitcher. I got him taken out of a lot of games last year because he ignored me signs and called his own pitches.. which led to him giving up six home runs.

I know what your saying SportsBuck. I am currently in the "JV" group and the freshman get mixed up with us. I feel that I can play at the varsity level and I am good enough to earn a starting position at the Varsity and that frustrates me. The thing that made me the angriest is that I work my tail of no matter what we do. If it running, throwing or just catching fly balls, and this kid goes at acts like he's got something on me because he thinks he is going to start on the freshman team, all while putting out no effort whatsoever.

I was on 3rd line and 2nd powerplay for hockey, then i just got moved down to 4th and kicked off powerplay. I busted my ass for 3 weeks in practice and rode mad bench, but nothing has happened, so now I've just been dicking around and shooting top cheese all day. Today I sniped one and knocked the water bottle off the goalies net and was giving him shit and then i caught an edge and went hard into the boards, it was hilarious.
To answer the question, I have some teammates I don't really like sometimes, but none are too bad. In soccer we had this one freshmen on our team that wouldnt pay attention cuz he thought he was hot shit and kept fucking up drills. That pissed me off.

I've played with a few kids like that. Had a kid I played with a few years back and he was the biggest wuss. We'd give him a little bit of a hard time and he'd go cry to his dad, who proceeded to call us assholes one day. Also, a year later, I played with a kid who sucked incredibly bad and yet thought he was on par with me (not to toot my own horn, but myself and the goalie were basically the only good players. I led the team in goals, assists and points and was the only consistent scorer). He constantly lied about his stats and pumped himself up. So I promptly embarrassed him in 1 on 1 drills one day.
