CF Pickup Basketball

[AgronAlum]

I’d be in when I could make it around work and the kiddos schedule. I’m in Ankeny.

Fair warning, I am also out of shape.

Would be awesome for us Ankeny peeps.

I might try this out in the morning. I’ve been looking for a place to start going again.

I'd have to imagine that watching these games would be kinda like watching Iowa play, but with a little better defense.

This sounds both like fun and like we would get destroyed by people actually good at basketball.

Really? Are Methodists' good at basketball?

I would definitely be down for that. Looking to play some pickup ball. It's about the only time I get super winded and not hate my life from exercising.

I will need an oxygen tank and possibly a lung transplant after we play, but I still want to play.

The Methodists are just the host. The players can be anybody. I see the same thing at the church I play at... Some nights, some darned good players show up who don't necessarily belong to the church (I don't, either).

I was just joking around. Ideally we could find a place that's so dead that we could play 5 on 5 with just CF people, but that might not be possible until it's nice enough to play outside.

I'll beat the Pioneer Columbus drum again. The place has two separate gyms and is kinda in a weird part of town, as well as simply not being a popular location.

We could try either or both. Whichever one works out better can be a regular spot.

Damn, it's really been 5+ years since this thread was created? That's crazy.

I was the old man on the court and you youngin's were still living the college life. Now everyone is out of school on to good jobs and now even married in your case. And I'm just even more older.

I suggest just 10 CFers play, 4v4 works also.

Played against some try hards who were pressing our CF team. Not wanting to do that again,

I think I'm still older than you. Can't remember. I know @CRAZYGREG is a little older than me though!

The worst is when try-hards talk smack.

You know what, we're playing for fun. We don't have regular practices or effing plays written up. **** off!

I’ve played in a couple games where people were smack talking me when I was with CFers. I pushed one guy because he was pissing me off.

People knows it takes a lot for me to do something like that.

Yep. I know I suck at basketball. No one has to tell me that. But I'm having fun with my friends.

No, the worst is watching @JStanz51 dunk repeatedly when most of us were happy to touch net

I have a well-documented tendency to "hard foul" try-hards. Play try-hard, get put down hard.

I play at Lifetime Saturday mornings, I'll be there tomorrow but always open to play more often.
