That's no excuse, I was always the shortest in my old team but I still kicked butt.
I try to be modest when it comes to stuff but my Lord I was good at basketball, I once scored 6 baskets in one game

Well, tbh I was playing against a crap team
But it was so fun, plus tall people only have the advantage of getting the ball into the hoop and being able to pass it to someone far away. My advantage was that I'm fast and I can get to the other side quickly plus I can turn quickly and change my way quickly.
And I remember fond memories of when I would have the ball but I couldn't get to the basket because everyone was crowded round there and I wouldn't dare throw it to anyone on my team because I know the ball would be snatched of themm quickly. So I'd run to the opposing teams basket, which always scared the livin' hell outta my team mates as all these lanky bastards would come chasing at me to get the ball and score an easy basket, but God dammit I was so fast as they came forward I'd run into them and depending on the situation I'd either dodge my way through them or pass the ball to a straggler at the back who would then hopefully score the basket
And it's antics like that in basketball that got me my nickname "Ninja Midget".
I've won an award for directing, a certficate for humour and a couple other things yet the only thing I brag about is my basketball skill

But hey, it's the only sport I enjoy actually playing so I've gotta be proud of it
I used to be a football guy but meh, I've kinda lost touch with it lately.
