About Me

skeeball to head

Posted: October 2, 2007

yes… this video is going to make it to my top 10 for sure. it is wonderful for so many reasons.

let’s start with the dialogue:

throw zoe… whoa!

try again,

double, you got a double whammy. go!
oh!!

welp, it wasn’t your fault, he was sittin’ there he’s in the way.
go throw.
don’t worry he was sittin’ th…
he shouldn’t have his head…

side note: i know most will think this video is evil. however i have been the kid on the opposite side of the ball many times so i feel no sympathy.

continuing on with why this is funny…

the kid throwing the ball is like barley 12 and the dad is heckling him like he is a college baseball player with a yankees scout watching from afar. furthermore the dad tries to brush off the fact his kid threw the ball into the wrong skeeball lane at high speed.

even though the kid throwing the ball was out if control i still feel little for the kid that got wacked in the head. you can tell by how his head bounces that he is going to be fine but it hurt really really bad.

NO RELATED POSTS

I think this is one point for the “girls can’t throw” side.
