Josh Keefe went 0-23 as his high school's starting quarterback. But he says there's a lesson to be learned from all that losing. “I'm proud of all the losing I did. Not everybody keeps at it until they're the worst to ever play the game.” OnlyAGameNPR
I’ve spent more than a decade stewing over it, rolling the memories around in my head, wondering if it could’ve really been that bad.
I still feel a kind of low-grade, stomach-knotting despair when I think back on my high school football career. Those losses don’t sting as much as they once did, but I can still feel those failures — and the feeling that I, personally, was a failure. In addition to my role on the football field, I also rode the bench for the varsity basketball team. After practice one day my sophomore year, the upperclassmen were discussing how good the football team would be if only they all went out for the squad."I don’t even know who plays quarterback," one of them said, before asserting that any of them could probably play the position better than whoever it was who did.I finally offered that it was me, and they politely changed the subject.
