Actually, some stuff has come up, so tonight is a no go. However, just sign up in this thread if you can play tomorrow night.
what time do you play?
10:30pm.
damn thats late, I got to be at work at 830am. What time do you guys usually finish up?
depends, 1-2am. And yeah, it kills us the next morning, but we do what we gotta do.
I will try to pull it off and see what happens.

can we get a list going to see how many we got playing.
Hey guys, I don't want to rain on anyones parade...
But before you go bringing liqour, just realize where you are going to be. I don't think John would say anything, but realize where you are, be discreet about it, and don't over do it.
Also realize you all have to drive home.

Is this at Trinity U? I used to live around there. If it is, maybe y'all will be playing when I'm in town visiting. I used to be pretty good...played HS ball (at Edison) and jr. college (at SAC) back in the 70's. But I'm so outta shape now that the only thing I'm (still) good for is passing the ball. LOLQuote:

Pretty average nothing. Some of us belong in the L.
Just switched games, I'm now doing the Rangers at 7, so I'll be there.
Actually, there's more actual ball movement at these games than anyplace I've ever played, so it's a lot more fun. I'd say we're between good and pretty good, with nobody that's actually bad.
Thats cool I was just wondering. I am not Mr. Basketball or anything but I can hold my own on the court. I never played HS ball but I have played in parks all around SA and NB for a long time. I was in the Hoop it Up Tourney in Dallas two years ago and had lots of fun.
what is up i guess that i am in tomm and will bring like 3 friends.
Yeah, ask LJ about Orange Shirt. :lolQuote:

What? Am I a ball hog?
i suck the last time i need to go back and redeam myself for sure. damn i was soo sore the next day. but it was fun.
Oh yeah, we're not going to have the gym for much longer. Once the students come back we won't be able to play during nights.
So, we should start thinking of places to play. I don't care if we play outdoors, but if not we could rent a gym on a weekly basis for a few bucks per person. Especially considering the amount of people we have showing up now.
Just something to keep in mind.
Stick me down as a mayhaps. I should know by tomorrow.
I'll try to make it
Hey, LJ, what about the dude in the orange shirt?
The ball movement out there is good. The players who don't pass stick out pretty bad. But I guess if you grew up in the And1 era, you don't really know what passing is.
I haven't played basketball on a regular basis for about four years, so there is a lot of rust to knock off. If I can ever reach the level I was at when I was 19-20 years old, that'd be awesome. But it won't be anytime soon.
:shootme
Not you. Some other guy who wore an orange shirt who came out a couple days ago.Quote:

Tell us, LJ. :lol
For pickup/casual games, I always found half-court to be more exciting and competitive. Like King said, otherwise it just turns into a game of fast breaks and full court passes.
If we wanted to run, we'd organize a track meet. Or just do suicides all night. :lol
I prefer not to get my ass kicked on my birthday, thank you very much.
Maybe sometime next week.
i wish i could come to these things
Damn it someone pick me up and ill go

Brent, come down 281 South, exit Mulberry/St Marys. Take the turnaround. The access road crosses over 281 and becomes Stadium Drive. Right as you get across 281, take a right (kind of like another turn around. Then take your first left and park in the parking lot as soon as you come in.
We all meet in front of the building across from the Field/Tennis Courts.
