last hoops of 2014

say goodbye to 2014 by playing some basketball tomorrow morning. it's the final countdown.

after christmas nine

we maxed out at nine on friday. ran full court games the whole morning. (i am so not used to running the full anymore.)

open tomorrow.

merry christmas!

hopefully, your day is merry and bright. enough raised hands warrant morning hoops. i know i could use some gut-reducing games.

watch the short clip below and have a merry christmas!

playing christmas eve

the two polls i took yesterday seemed to indicate we would play christmas eve, but we remain uncertain for the day after christmas.

that means we'll get another show of hands for interest in playing on friday.

here's monday's video: http://youtu.be/FxbjH5G2Acc

christmas week hoops - monday

i don't know if we are playing all week (yet), but we are definitely playing tomorrow. we'll get a count in the morning to plan out the rest of the week. i will post results here. stay tuned.

in the meantime, watch friday hoops video:

the week before christmas

as of tomorrow, you only have six shopping days before christmas. if you don't have presents or a plan, you'd better snap to it. time is running out.

i know what i want. i want a younger body to acrobat around in the same way that allen sayers does, whom i believe has an extremely high midichlorian count. or a pony. i don't think i'll get either.

see you all in the morning.

early christmas

we were talking on monday as we were getting ready to play that just a year ago i was scrambling to send out email to get enough people to show up during the christmas time games. i know we had jokingly prayed for numbers to come in. dave said that our prayers have been answered just a few months back looking toward this christmas season. our courts runneth over.

see all of you in the morning!

big number streak continues

half court games continue. i think we were looking for enough numbers a year ago at this time. times are different. plenty is better than scarce.

by the way, only eleven shopping days until christmas.

record breaking hoops

'tis the season, eh? twenty-five. that's how many would have been in the mix had dave "the dove" and i had stayed to play. i don't believe we had that many on the monday before thanksgiving.

i was going to reply to mitch telling him to just not let the numbers stop him from coming out to play, but then...twenty-five.

we are open again tomorrow morning for crowd hoops. let's see what happens.

cold weather again

i didn't get to post this video for monday so i'm posting it now:

playing tomorrow! see ya!

halves and full

the half court games continue with record numbers showing up the first week in december.

ok, maybe not that crazy. it has been a full house lately. we still find enough exercise, i think. it's all in how you play your half court games.

of course, we always find the time for at least one full court contest.

here, watch this video:

december return

the last month of hoops for 2014 has begun. it was a gym of half court games until the end, when a full court game finished off the morning.

it will be christmas before we know it....
