played until college days and for the college
Who are you?
I am from Sac and watched DeMarcus Nelson play several times. I played in the same tournaments him my senior year of highschool. I went to Christian Brothers.
I only played for my high school team my senior year but played two seasons of AAU basketball. I focused on volleyball in highschool but the bball coach made me play my senior year because of my height/jumping ability. I still play around today but all I am really good at is shot blocking and dunking.
Here is me after dunking in Mexico this past summer:
Who Am I? I'm Joe Schmoogins!
played until college days and for the college
actually i played when i was in grade 3 about 8yrs old after watchin the sport on free 2 air TV, i think it was the season the bulls v blazers in the finals, thats when i started to get into the sport and collecting cards.
Stop balling when i went to university due to no courts on campuses, and local playground i rarely get out of the house these days anyway....i dunno if i can touch the ring no more...im 5'7 btw and havnt touch bball since 2003.
Actually from year 7-10 highschool age 13-16 i reckon i wouldve made it to the schools bball team, reason i didnt bother trying out? too many ballhogs who wanted to be like mike who didnt wanna pass the ball. In year 10 i made the bball team without even trying for the schools team, why? Thats because i concentrated on defense and camp in the lane and block all the ballhog tryhard wannabe who think they can ball. And they barely used me...i only played 1 game for about 1minute, yeh thats right 1 block, AND1 play hahahahaha....everyone was laughing when i pulled that td lowpost spin move and basket counted with the def foul.
From 1997+ i didnt bother to play compe ive sport or played any sports cause i had a out break with eczma all over my body. Its really embarrassing though...thats why i played in long pants and long sleeve shirts on teams lol cause nobody knows.
I have played recreationally since high school. I played in some rec leagues during college and once I graduated I tried to stay in pick-up games 3-5 times a week. Unfortunately I recently blew out my ACL twice (at least it was the same knee) so I don't get to play like I used to.The good news is that I am almost ready to hit the court again after missing over 1 year in PT. Please keep me posted about the games on Monday nights. I would love to come down to SA just to shut down remingtonbo2001 and his weak game.
Since most don't know me I'll give a brief background. I'm remingtonbo2001 older brother by 7 years and we have been playing ball together ever since he could walk. I loved teaching him the game and beating him senseless.Even once he outgrew me (6'3" to my 5'9") I was able to continue the onslaught. I am looking forward to keeping my winning streak active. So Bo, the challenge is out.... Are you ready for me to kick your but again?
I played HS and in Jr. College. As SAC I played with Otis Malone (Harlandale). We played against Gus Williams brother Ray, who eventually played with the Knicks. The guy had some vertical.
Yea right!Don't be so sure. I got hops so you better watch yourself or you will get
posterized
When you'll try to dunk I'll just block you!
Played in HS...But BB was more of a "pass time sport" between football and baseball season. So never really got very good at it.
Played since I was 10, actually just got invited down to train with one of the teams in the West Australian state league, but I would never make the team, and would probably lucky to make the reserves team, so I think I'll pass.
I grew up playing PF/C but then stopped growing at 6'2/6'3 so I'm now a SF who WILL kick your ass in the postand I'm always the best passer on my team, always... I just struggle with getting angry at the referees, have no midrange shooting game (which is why I have a soft spot for midrange shooters in the NBA, because it's rare for a baller to have one)... I'm a 3pter or a keyway guy otherwise I'm giving the ball up to someone who has a good 15fter...
Would love to play against people from on here
played from 3rd grade until high school on teams. only played intramurals in college. now i just play for recreation on a men's team at the Y. i'm a 6'3 225 lb PG who can play in the post (SF) since in most rec league games i'm usually one of the taller players. i hate playing out of position but i do what it takes to help the team win.
Yes I played and at a good level
I played in the NCAA tourney and even made the elite 8 one year our of the 4 i was at college.
Alright dude... believe what you want. But, it's true. I went to Capital Christian High School. We had a solid team. We were a D4 h.s. but played against D1 schools in tournaments and non-league play. The game I'm referring to happened during a UoP tourney. We won the game, but lost the tourney. I might have even played against you. I know we played Christian Brothers at least once... or maybe I'm confusing your school with Jesuit. Anyway, we also had a guy or two who went to Christian Brothers, then left and came to our school to play on our team.
I haven't played competetive basketball since my freshman year in high school, when I played on a YMCA team (we were the Spurs). I can't handle the ball worth a and I haven't dunked since I sprained my ankle my junior year, but I can shoot lights out to about college three range. I still whip one of my neighbors at horse a couple times a week.
I played in high school on JV and a little while on varsity. But I was always missing practices during vacations (parents on opposite ends of the country) so even though I was decent, my coach made me ride the pine. Oh yeah, and later they found out he was molesting boys so him.
That's an unfortunate choice of words.
Ya I played with Dave. That fool is the skinniest mofo ever. Did you know Anthony Brown? I thought he went to Christian Brothers, but I could be mistaken. He led Sac in scoring one year I believe. Our team had so much talent... but the maturity level of fourth graders. And I vaguely remember someone breaking their arm like you mention. I actually think that when we played you we went up by 14 or so after the first... but then sucked balls the rest of the way and you guys came back and won. After that game we ran for three days straight, and didn't even get to touch a ball. Worst three days of practice ever. Nice to see another Sac area Spurs fan.
I'm still waiting, but you keep giving me excuses.I have played recreationally since high school.

Bad knee...please?
GiG and Joe can now hold hands to "It's a small world after all".
It is bloody small, isn't it?
I realized that after I posted it. Anyway he was also a math teacher and he was fired and I think went to jail for a bit.
yo remingtonbo2001 i'm not making you any promises that you will be playing vs badass if you come play vs my friends and i. what i am promising though is a game....maybe 5 maybe more. we play for like 3 hrs at a time and if you come out and play you will most likely be the tallest out there. there's a couple of my buddies who play who are at 6ft or 6'1ft but my buddy lance and i are at like 5'8ft - 5'9ft.
just wanting to give you a heads up. we might play tomorrow but we are for sure set for tuesday night around 6pm. lights go off at my court at 10pm so just hit me up here anytime between now and then if you're interested in balling with us small wannabe ballers.
and if anyone else is interested please get in on this! i would love to play 5 vs 5 but it is so hard to find people willing to drive to my side of town or to get 10 people together anyhow. most likely we will be playing 3 vs 3. half-court regulation (we used to have the 3 point line and free throw line marked off but the home owners bs repaved the court). my court is close to ih-10 and huebner if anyone is interested. just pm me people!
TUESDAY!! TUESDAY @ 6pm!
ps: i played vs a buddy yesterday going 8-0 in 21 and almost broke my wrist while trying to catch myself falling. it hurts like but i am still down for tuesday.
32 years old. Have played since 3rd grade. Played H.S. ball in Flint, MI against Mateen Cleaves and Morris Peterson, but was on the AAU team with both of them. Didn't play much hehe.
Played 3 years in college, Urbana University and Alpena Community College before knee surgery stopped that. Currently play in 2 leagues and a couple pick up games, living in Indiana. 6'5 SG, was over 55% in 3's in High School. Pretty much all I did was shoot 3's, until college. Coach wouldnt let me shoot 3's in practice for 2 months straight until I drove more.
Was fun, miss it, but leagues are fun as well.

I played in a small division 2 school in college. Don't play as often as I'd like these days.
Played since I was 8 years old, in grade school and high school.
I played intramurals in college and we made the Finals my junior year, but I got ejected for "fighting" because this little guy tried to undercut me when I went for a layup, so I elbowed him and he flopped.
I still play now (3 yrs out of college), but my drinking has caught up to me and the endurance isn't quite what it used to be.
To be honest, I haven't played a game in 3 years. I run 3-4 times a week, so stamina shouldn't be an issue.
I'm tall and lanky. I can rebound, pass and defend. I'm not sure about my shot, it depends on the weather.
I'll be there.
