banana swirl

the video pirate dave sent to the group (via aaron sherrill) is a total riot. i'm posting this officially just in case you didn't click his link...or see the email. #typical

be there tomorrow. and if you haven't weighed in on labor day play, do so via email or in person in the morning.

here ya go:

got the numbers?

labor day hoops: who's in? is the count enough? is it worthy of holiday early awakenings?

have your say now... before it's too late.

coming to the end of august

we are almost to labor day. in fact , it's a week away. that means we need to know who is committed to playing that day. i realize it's a week away, but we should get this out there now.

do we have a solid eight? more? what say you?

old man hoopz

how are things with a school schedule? making it to hoopz on time? finding motivation to get up early? i hope you are having enough to make the games optimal. refer to trent's guide for optimal attendance to know how many is good, best, and poor.

speaking of trent, happy birthday. he did the whole age+1 thing on monday. feel free to take him out to waffle house afterwards in celebration!

cooler days

the muggy first part of the week has cleared and cooled a little. starting to feel like fall...but we really know better. around here, it all changes all the time.

hoops is the same though. tomorrow morning. same everything.

back to school

the season of school has begun for kids, but skool was never out for the courtship of basketball, yo! if you haven't brought your moves to the front if the class yet, maybe it's time to step it up.

you'll get your chance tomorrow morning. back your lunch...or have pirate dave pack it for you!

there once was an early morning crew
  who got up before anybody knew.
      made their way to the gym,
      cuz dave let them in,
   and played hoops until black and blue.

these guys live the life of their dreams;
  more fun than it really seems.
     a basket they needed
     and when they had greeted
  the broke into light and dark teams.

attendence was a game of roulette
  with odds to hedge anyone's bet,
     sixteen is too many!
     and seven not plenty!
  but ten, then no one's upset.

hoops haikus

wedneday is hump day

but it also hoops day

so wake up and play!

ten is best to have.

eleven and nine are fine.

seven really stinks!

three games are the norm.

or two games for well-matched teams.

fourth game is bonus!
