Dunk a basketball. Just like this…

What is one thing you wish you could do, that you’ll probably never be able to do?

spill it,

Pete

    Its a toss up between playing in the WNBA or being able to sing.

  9. brandiandboys May 14, 2008 at 12:26 pm #

    Be Meredith Vieria on the Today Show.

  10. jon May 14, 2008 at 12:32 pm #

    i would like to catch a game for the LA Dodgers!

    @brian alexander…kiss up!

  11. Chris Nichols May 14, 2008 at 12:39 pm #

    Seeing that I can dunk that well any day of the week, I’ll have to say play in the NFL.

  12. Pete Wilson May 14, 2008 at 12:46 pm #

    I think Chris is smack talking this morning!

  13. jarrodmorris May 14, 2008 at 12:51 pm #

    I wish I could play any sport better. It’s very embarrassing being the last person picked for game time in youth group.

  14. Giant Idiot May 14, 2008 at 1:44 pm #

    Not be chinless and return a Pete Sampras serve.

  15. Matthew Singleton May 14, 2008 at 1:47 pm #

    Play guitar like a freaking rock star… without the aid of guitar hero.

  16. Michael May 14, 2008 at 2:09 pm #

    turn the words in my head into songs for others to hear, and then donate the money to overseas missions. First step would be to play more than jingle bells on my guitar. :)

  17. fullofboys May 14, 2008 at 2:12 pm #

    I would want to be a well known journalist or preform on Broadway!

  18. Josh Lazar May 14, 2008 at 2:15 pm #

    be as cool of a pastor as you…

  19. tam May 14, 2008 at 2:27 pm #

    see all our laundry baskets empty.

  20. Jen May 14, 2008 at 2:29 pm #

    I wish I could be in a clean broadway musical….or sing a duet with Todd Smith of Selah.

  21. Pete Wilson May 14, 2008 at 2:29 pm #

    Are you kidding me Josh??? You’re the man.

  22. Skee-Lo May 14, 2008 at 2:33 pm #

    I wish I was a little bit taller/I wish I was a baller/I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her/I wish I had a rabbit in a hat and a 6-4 Impala

  23. Anne Jackson May 14, 2008 at 3:02 pm #

    Dangit! I was so going to post lyrics that “Skee-lo” posted…

    I wish I could say no to cookies and cupcakes.

  24. April May 14, 2008 at 3:11 pm #

    Okay, so how come I am in such deep thought over this? Seriously, I have been sitting here for like 15 minutes trying to think of something. (which is retarded since yesterday my “love” issue not wanting what others have…so obviously I have NO problem coveting.) So here goes, if I had a magic lamp with only one wish…I wish I could have a live-in house keeper. That would be my heaven on earth. I could sit here all day and dream of it…but I better get off my duff and pick up the whirlwind that my kids left behind before heading outside.

  25. Michelle Parker May 14, 2008 at 3:20 pm #

    I always say, “When I grow up I want to be a stand up comedian!” Humors my life.

  26. Emily May 14, 2008 at 3:25 pm #

    read flowerdust.net without blushing.

  27. Tyler May 14, 2008 at 3:26 pm #

    i went to high school and played basketball with the one white guy in the video.

  28. Pete Wilson May 14, 2008 at 3:42 pm #

    Emily, that’s impossible.

  29. Jad May 14, 2008 at 3:47 pm #

    Drive in the Indy 500.

    Pete, c’mon, you know that you dunked like that in church league ball back in the day. We all did. Why do you think they called me “Slam” Duncan?

  30. michael May 14, 2008 at 4:12 pm #

    write a book…and people would say, “it’s like good to great but for god.”

  31. Vince May 14, 2008 at 4:19 pm #

    I wish i could stop Christians from being idiots

  32. patrowland May 14, 2008 at 4:42 pm #

    Being a white boy from Indiana you’ve struck a nerve with the Dunking Thing. It wasn’t a jumping problem, I could always jump high enough but I couldn’t palm the basketball so I couldn’t throw it down.

  33. olsonar May 14, 2008 at 5:14 pm #

    See the earth from outer space.

  34. Pete Wilson May 14, 2008 at 5:37 pm #

    Oh, I want to change mine to “see the world from outer space”. I think it’s going to happen in my lifetime.

  35. ncarnes May 14, 2008 at 5:51 pm #

    The dunk is tempting since I played organized Basketball since 6th grade, but truly I would love to preach a crusade and see like 10,000 people receive Christ in one night.

    So since that will probably never happen, I am hitting the gym to work on my dunk. :)

  36. juliepersinger May 14, 2008 at 6:02 pm #

    Have any sort of athletic ability.

  37. Sarah Smith May 14, 2008 at 6:29 pm #

    To play Eponine in Les Miserables

  38. Linnae Hoppe May 14, 2008 at 6:30 pm #

    write a book and call it “Jesus and Salsa”. No idea what the book would be about, but that doesn’t really matter ’cause the title is cool

  39. stevewhip May 14, 2008 at 6:40 pm #

    swing a golf club like Tiger. Or at least hit it down the middle consistently!

  40. jdellis May 14, 2008 at 6:48 pm #

    I would LOVE to pilot a fighter jet. Not ride along, pilot.

  41. Mark LeHew May 14, 2008 at 6:56 pm #

    I’d wanna be a movie star!

  42. Internet Millionaire May 14, 2008 at 7:01 pm #

    positively reach out to more people…

  43. vagabondrunn May 14, 2008 at 7:56 pm #

    ..solve world hunger.

    Haha, so sure I do wish that, but that’s just a “text-book” answer.

    I wish I could…play tennis like Andre Agassi against Pete Sampras(only at the French Open…so I’d win)

  44. irishsof May 14, 2008 at 7:58 pm #

    Sing in tune!

  45. Heather May 14, 2008 at 9:09 pm #

    I wish I could sing like Nicol Sponberg.

    Oh, and I wish I could read a book called ‘Jesus and Salsa’;)

  46. JudiFree.com May 14, 2008 at 9:13 pm #

    play the guitar like my husband!

  47. Anne Jackson May 14, 2008 at 9:33 pm #

    Emily, Pete…that is HILARIOUS! Ironic that I probably blush about 287 times a day. I get embarrassed really easily!

  48. Robert May 14, 2008 at 9:48 pm #

    Play piano like Keith Jarrett.

    And even more important – fly like the Superman.

    Oh yes, almost forgot: to walk through the walls.

    Mhm, on a second thought, space-travel to another galaxy…

    I am not sure I want to continue with this…

  49. DEb May 14, 2008 at 9:57 pm #

    Have dinner (at MY house) with Britney Spears (don’t laugh P2), MADONNA and, of course, Bret Michaels… all at once!! (never gonna happen, is it?!)

  50. Aaron May 14, 2008 at 10:25 pm #

    Be a starting pitcher in a major league baseball game at Fenway Park, Yankee Stadium, and Wrigley Field.

  51. Steve Morris May 14, 2008 at 10:25 pm #

    I wish that I could speak to more groups about the

    importance of living their life for Christ. Somehow,

    encouraging them to get out of their pews and into the game.

    I wish that I could see more people excited about my little book,

    “Down, Set, Hike: It’s not just a game played on Sundays!”

  52. pgowesky May 14, 2008 at 11:57 pm #

    I would want to write a book. Something related to ministry, or just how to survive ministry. Who knows… This one really made me think Pete! Good work.

  53. ncarnes May 15, 2008 at 12:44 am #

    * Fight Darth Vader with a Light Saber!
    * Come out of the water holding a machine gun in one hand mowing down the enemy like Rambo.
    * Do the Crane kick on that punk in Karate Kid Part 1…and then immediately catch a fly with chopsticks.
    * Survive and win a boxing match against Drago from Rocky 4.
    * Arm wrestle and beat “Bull” Harley from Over the Top, but only after I get to turn my hat around backward.
    * I am Superman, so I have that covered…
    * Swing over a pit of killer alligators with my whip like Indiana Jones.

    What can I say I’m an 80′s brat?! :mrgreen:

  54. AJ May 15, 2008 at 12:51 am #

    Quit the job that I’ve come to loathe and start an in-home daycare so I can be home with my beautiful baby girl every day.

  55. Rachelkemper May 15, 2008 at 1:49 am #

    Marry David Beckham, be in a movie, climb Mt. Everest.

  56. Lori K May 15, 2008 at 1:59 am #

    Be a sportscaster for ESPN, Fox or whoever covers Nascar. OR I would love to play NFL football. I know, I know, it’s a guy’s type thing but I’m an only child with a Dad that seriously taught me a ton about sports. (I had a Dallas Cowboys pillow, comforter, etc.) I wanted a Cowboys uniform but that’s where my folks drew the line………

  57. Rachel Rowell May 15, 2008 at 2:56 am #

    Play the drums and have a voice like Whitney Houston….HA!!! Definitely not gonna happen. Heck that girl can sing!!

  58. jonsquared May 15, 2008 at 11:46 am #

    Skydive. I’ve always wanted to do it, but am deathly afraid of heights.

  59. Rachel May 15, 2008 at 4:18 pm #

    I wish I could swim like a professional. I never learned to swim at all. I’m terrified of the water!

  60. Nicki Robins May 15, 2008 at 4:56 pm #

    First of all, that dunk was insane! My dream is to be in Cats on Broadway.
