Today, my friends happily announced that although they had been cut, they were still going to be playing on the school's volleyball team. The rumor going around is that everyone who tried out made the team. I never got a call back. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was asked to cover work for someone because they have volleyball practice. Apparently, they haven't noticed that we've been on the same team for two years. FML
Today, I was at a volleyball game talking with my friends when a girl who is in my team arrived. She was greeting someone else but I thought that she was saying hi to me. However, I'd already waved back at her. All my friends and others noticed the situation and as a result they laughed at me. FML
Today, I was trying out for a play I really wanted to be in. After my audition, I was feeling really good. She said she would post the cast list tomorrow. Not knowing where she would post it, I asked her. Her reply? "It doesn't matter. You won't be on it anyway." FML
Today, I had a volleyball game, and we were down by 13 points. I looked up at the crowd, and my mom was shaking her head in disappointment. When it was my turn to serve, I aced them, and tied the score. When I looked up she was gone. She'd left. When I got home, I heard how I sucked for an hour. FML
Today, I was playing volleyball in gym when I went up for a spike. As I was coming down, I elbowed a girl in the face. It turns she's the second most important lead in our school musical, which we perform on Thursday. Her nose is broken. FML
Today, I got cut from my track team. My coach told me it was because my sprints were "too fast" for his liking. Huh? FML
Today, I went to our school golf banquet, after being with the team and practicing every day for a few months with them. When it came time to get the certificates, all the names were called out. Except for mine. When I asked the coach where my certificate was, he said "Who are you?". FML
Today, I tried out for cheerleading. The judges, two head cheerleaders, sized me up, burst out laughing and made fat jokes towards me. I fought back and called them, "twiggy fucking sluts." At that moment, the coach walked in and saw and reported me to the principal. The judges got off scott free. FML
Today, my parents made me quit a school team that I absolutely loved, because women "aren't supposed to play sports." and were worried that if I stayed on the team, I'd develop a manly physique. FML
Today, I announced to my family that I will be trying out for the next season of America's Best Dance Crew. They responded by laughing hysterically and my mother said "You guys suck, good luck making it past auditions". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Volleyball isn't a hard sport to learn, maybe you could practice and also improve your physical form, you could then ask if you can be a substitute... That's if you are really motivated to make the team.

It's a lot harder then you think . Any sport is easy to learn but being good is a lot harder than it looks so stfu (:

It's easy to learn the rules and stuff but the sport isn't easy to play. You have to train yourself to go against the natural instinct of trying to catch yourself when you fall and basically hurl yourself at everything that comes your way. It's also constant movement so you have to be conditioned and stay conditioned, meaning regular cardio and weight lifting. A lot about being a good volleyball player is just being good at predicting things though, and that isn't 'easy to learn' at all. So yeah, volleyball is an intense sport and not easy to just pick up.

Well not everythings as hard as trying to make an actual good comment for you, obviously..

Volleyball players are clearly very defensive about proving what they're good at is not hard...isn't that usually a sign that it's not actually that hard?

No it's a sign that it's really ******* annoying when people say it is easy !

Ouch, sorry OP. But if you really want to do volleyball, work on improving your skill and practice hard (maybe with the friends on the team?) and tryout next year. =]

How can you be cut and still play for the team? Do you people even know what "cut" means? Don't pin your hopes on rumors. If you are an uncoordinated clod who tried out just to be able to watch nubile, young girls frolicking about, consider this option closed. Don't worry, there's plenty of lesbian teen* **** on the intertubez. *The "actresses" may not literally be 13-19 years old, but who gives a shit? Free **** is free ****.

Actually, it involves agility, anticipation, teamwork, coordination, and good arm and leg muscles. Our team at school is very hard to make because of this. Don't try assume things about sonething you dont know.
