Today, I guest-played as a catcher for a new fastpitch softball team. After the first couple of innings, the batter fouled a ball back into my catcher's mask. As a concussion test, the coach asked me what her name was. I decided to fake the concussion rather than admit that I'd forgotten her name. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was my first day of softball practice. I'm the youngest one on the team by about 2 years, so I wanted to prove I'm just as good as everyone else. Too bad I tripped in the outfield and got hit in the head with a bat. I have a concussion. FML
Today, my baseball team had a game and one of our best players was injured sliding into first. I'm pretty fast so when the coach called my name I grabbed a helmet assuming it was finally my chance to get in the game. Turns out he just wanted me to get ice. The entire team couldn't stop laughing. FML
Today, at my softball game, there was one spot left for center field. The coach had to choose between me or the girl who forgot her glasses and was blind without them. He chose her. FML
Today, at work I was playing football with one of my camp kids in the indoor-pool. I saw a co-worker walking by and I decided to hit him with the football. The football slipped out of my hand and I hit a lady in the face, breaking her nose, and causing her to fall and get a concussion. FML
Today, I started playing softball again in a league after not playing for about 5 years. My very first time at the bat I whacked a foul ball into the parking lot and hit my own car. FML
Today, I was pitching at a fastpitch softball game. The other team chanted about the ball being too high and almost hitting the batter in the eye. After throwing the next pitch, the ball was savagely returned by the batter, straight into my eyes. FML
Today, I had a soccer game. A player from the other team hit me in the face. In the next half, she was the goalie and I was determined to score on her. When I finally got my chance to, everyone cheered, until I kicked the ball into the goal post and it bounced back and hit me in the face. FML
Today, I was trying out for a position as pitcher for my college baseball team. I threw the ball as hard as I could, and then collapsed to the ground in agony from a dislocated shoulder. FML
Today, I was selected to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game. I practiced every evening for two weeks. In front of hundreds of people, I got so nervous that I let go of the ball behind me instead of towards homeplate. The mascot had to retrieve it. FML
Today, I sucked so bad that I faked an injury during a football game to get out of playing. FML

Aren't they normally supposed to ask your name?

Maybe you forgot because of the concussion?

Sometimes our trainer ask a rooster lays and egg what side of the roof does it fall off of

#13 Some people would get that wrong without a concussion.

The answer is obvious, roosters don't lay eggs.

And they're often thinking too hard about the trick in the question to figure out the answer to notice the trick in the question. Human brains are wired weirdly.

They will ask you to tell them their name to test your memory. It's to see how badly you were hit.

thats pretty stupid...now (depending on your countries rules on the matter) you could be out for a while if they think you have a concussion....but nice job blocking it with your face

I got a concussion in high school(I played field hockey) and at the time, the standard was to sit out 2 games and you could only return with a doctor's note to limited field time for 1 game. This was no matter how intense the injury was

It's okay, I never remembered my teachers' names in high school, so I just called them dude or ma'am.

Calling a teacher dude is a little rude.
MrConcise 35
I went to a pretty good high school, the teachers were friendly and didn't mind.
sstahpp 33
That would never happen here. I'd get a bitch slap.

daum, i could get away with calling my teachers dude and no one would even think twice about it

Well of the coach's entire test to see if you had a concussion was weather or not you knew her name or not, then you did actually have a concussion apparently. So, technically, you didn't lie about anything. The coach is just dumb.

Not your fault you weren't interested in the game. Next time, simply don't join and just watch.

Ops. Read the FML wrong. And I'll simply call her coach as another commenter said.
