    SCK is a sellout.

    Rocketgirl is cool in my book. Wish I could play bball..I suck at it.

    You guys were crazy to still have the meetup even though it was 100 degrees out there!

    Of all the videos, this is the only one that actually shows me in game. Good thing it was the game-winner. One of these days, CCR might stop sagging off of me on defense. :grin:

    Definitely agree with this post. The sun was just nasty out there. I couldn't stand it after two games which is why I left at 6. I'm not use to playing without any sort of cover on the court.

    ^what was wrong these courts again?
    -they're covered, and can run two full-court games at one time.

    Are they relatively available on Saturday afternoons?

    That is key.

    We've found plenty of these types of places before, and a lot of times we ended up just sitting around waiting to get on the court.

    Those covered courts would be packed during the summer

    I love this.

    We talked about it A LOT but of course when its as unbearable as say..... 103 degrees heat index you probably will have some trouble adjusting to the smoldering court along with the sun in our face when you play on a certain side of the court.

    Either way, anyone that didn't/couldn't show really have no room to talk.

    And just our luck, I just checked the weather and it shows rain Saturday. :(
    We could still play thru it, I mean what better splish splash party or sweat bath?

    Do you need to unleash your anger out on a helpless sap with a ball? Lol

    Not at all! I swear I felt like I was melting within the first three minutes. I'm sure it had nothing to do with me wearing all black. I played horribly until the sun started going down.

    Nah, if I really want to unleash anger it usually involves a hobo, a bottle of scotch, and a machete.

    If you understood the week I was having, you would know that guy picked the absolute worst time to try and **** with me.

    He got what he deserved for being a small-dicked mid-management *******.

    hey, this is the first time I have given you any sort of flack over making me rush my return to work. :p I'm allowed.

    On a serious note, considering that doing what you did could have gotten ALL of us kicked out of the terminal, Id say one needs to learn that there are times to unload and times to not unload. How would you feel if the worst case scenario had happened and you put three others out of work?

    I know you think I'm just young and stupid and filled with rage, but I'm not a very impulsive person. I understood what I did and I immediately regretted it only because it put y'all in a bit of a difficult position.

    And yes, I would have felt ****ing awful and most likely would have been on suicide watch, but that was not likely to happen given the circumstances.

    Honestly I don't understand why the guy made such a big deal about it, all I really did was stare at him for a couple seconds until he provoked me enough to the point I told him "eh **** this I'm quitting", then he tried to power-trip on me told me to get off the property, so I said "gladly" and gave him the finger on the way out. Thats about all it was. I didn't threaten anybody, didn't even try and make a scene really, he's the one who got all giddy about getting to flex his little muscle and get somebody fired.

    But that possibility was also why I immediately took all necessary steps to make sure that didn't happen. I said to S "Tell the guy I'm a loose cannon you already let me go once and the only reason I'm back here is because the other guy is out of commission", then I smoothed things over with the douchebag. I'm not a violent guy, I was just going through the toughest time in my life and that guy picked the absolute worst day to **** with me.

    I've got a little bit of a problem with authority, shoot me.
