When I Got Knocked Out By A Basketball Player Who Was Half My Size | Tall Girl Storytime

Hello, hello! Welcome if you’re new here, and welcome back if you aren’t! I hope everyone reading this is doing well; for some reason, I’m feeling really REALLY good. Like my skin is cooperating, my hair looks extra good, I don’t have any back pain, I’m feeling fresh and I sound SO self-absorbed right now lol. But screw it; I hear that people pleasers are entering into their self era and I’M HERE FOR IT! 

Anywayssss, this is one of the most stereotypical titles you will ever see in this podcast. Yes, fyi if you didn’t know yet, I used to play basketball. What a time! For the record though, I actually played more than one sport: basketball, swimming, baseball, and tennis. I was quite the athlete when I was young and this is also to say that tall people can play sports other than basketball or volleyball. Just had to put that out there…

This was a request from one of my followers so shoutout to her! And of course, if you have any requests, feel free to hit me up on my socials @atallgirlspodcast on Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest. I hope you’re ready for this storytime because I don’t think I am. 

So this happened when I was about 8 or 9 years old. The team that I played on was a relatively good team, and actually we beat the team that we were playing that day a couple times before. I’m not even gonna downplay it; that team was an easy team. But this one girl I’m going to tell you about just made the situation worse. Let’s call her Tammy. Tammy literally came up to my waist, well a little above my waist, and I’m not even kidding you on that. She was HALF MY SIZE. But I was pretty tall for my age sooooo…

But she was also more “muscular” than me because with being tall comes being skinny. Like extremely, but I was still developing so that was quite yet another time. She always guarded me every time we played a game against each other, so it was no surprise that she was guarding me in this game. So we started playing the game; it’s more than halfway over and my team is up 30 points. You’d think that they would not try AS HARD, but Tammy had other plans…

So in this one play, the ball basically got lost on the court and then it started rolling toward me and Tammy. And boy, what happened next was very…not pleasant. Tune in to the full episode below to find out what happens!
