I was alright at it, although I never would have continued it competitively. I'm not hugely into sports.

I think we're all missing the bigger picture here - Funky Drummer used to be on a net ball team! There HAS to be some yardage in mocking him about that! :)

i'm not getting all macho but Basketball is a non contact sport, which is pointless, thats what i love about football and rugby. I was having an arguement with a friend that Ice Hockey is the most violent sport and i said that its easy to be violent wrapped in 6 inches of padding.

Hey, come on, it's a percectly logical, sensible, (hetrosexual) thing to do - be the only male on a sports team with females running round you in their gym kits ;)

Mock me not Mr Morals, it was well planned out!

you cant beat a game of Rugby League for needing to bit fit and having to be powerful to take the hits in the game..Union is pants in comparison

as for basketball..its ok...a bit dull but ok

no longer a non contact sport...touch foul has been eliminated.

basketball season is tought that a football season. 82 regular season games. often playin 4 a week. you take bigger hits in basketball than in football- yet football is considered contact. rugby...fair enuff...its rough.

ice hockey isnt all that violent. you get knocked round a bit but your well padded
