1 World Series game and I won it.

No "KIDDING" - as in THE World Series ?

I leaned about having snow ball fights with pitchers the hard way.
Got into one with this guy built like a cigerrette machine.
He threw a snowball at me from across a field, this thing had no trajectory.
Meaning that, from when it left his hand to when it hit me in the eye, it didn't drop an inch.

There wasn't time to move.

Funny thing was, I could HEAR it coming - kinda of WISSSSSS sound, than SMACK.
I lost sight in that eye for about 20 minutes, some residual retinal damage.

Never have a snow ball fight with a pitcher.

A frozen rope A?

The noise before it hits. Interesting. That rings a bell way back in my mind that what you're saying is absolutely true. Maybe because I've hit in the head by varying size, weight, and speed missiles. (No pun intended on "rings a bell")

Some retinal damage. Dam.

I would take a LAWS rocket to a snow fight with a genuine pitcher.
