Basketball isn't my best sport, but at try none-the-less: I played in a pickup basketball game and got schooled in the post by a squatty dude who looked like a young Danny DeVito with a goatee and a herring bone necklace. He had a sweet spin move that I couldn't seem to defend. It wasn't one of my prouder moments in attempted athletics.

Tulane intramurals spring of 2011. Waiting on our game watching a close one. The white guy (thug pos) Doucher best player on the losing team fouls this tall skinny black kid with a couple seconds remaining for strategy purposes but then starts talking shite to the guy. Doucher keeps being a douche and everybody comes over to break it up. Doucher slips around while tall skinny black kid isn't looking and punches him right in the temple, probably one of the most flush, clean punches I've ever seen landed. Black kid drops like a sack of potatoes and his whole team goes after Doucher. All kinds of folks keep it from getting bad. Doucher gets ejected and may have gotten arrested, but staff removed him from the gym.

Just the time this thugged out black guy was yelling about how he hadn't seen sunlight in years. He'd double dribble all the time but tried to fight when called out. Left it alone.
Smart Man. Live to fight another day.

playing at the rec, had a fast break and pulled up to shoot a three from the wing, see a guy out the corner of my eye coming behind me to block it so i fake it, he jumps and flies by and lifts his foot like a dumb frick and breaks my nose. I was pretty pissed b/c i know he was getting frustrated with losing and me hitting my shots so i thought he did it on purpose, which he may have, but he was pretty apologetic afterwards and every time i saw him after that.

When I lived in L.A. I used to play in the Saturday morning pick-up games at The Sports Club L.A. with guys like Shaq, Magic and a lot of other NBA players. Well one game I got stuck guarding Shawn Marion and while it was fun he destroyed me. Luckily we still won because we had Stephon Marbury on our team and he was BY FAR the best pick-up player in all of those games. I've played pick-up games with dozens of NBA players in my life and nobody ran shite like Starbury. Dude was unstoppable!

We play pick up games at a local elementary school. When little league practice is going on at the same time this one alcoholic dude that should be watching his son practice insists on playing. He smells of booze and trailer park and will hack the shite out of you on a consistent basis.

Basketball isn't my favorite or best sport, but here is my story: Had a VERY light game (not very competitive feeling in the least) going. It consisted of 4 on 4 and included 2 girls. Well, for some reason the girls didn't want to guard each other, they wanted to guard their boyfriends. Me and the other 3 guys playing didn't give a frick as we were just goofing anyway. Well, one girl is playing D against her boyfriend. He is a pretty short fricker (like 5'5) and she actually had an inch on him. Well, she actually steals the ball from him. He gets PISSED. LIke yelling in her face and lightly shoving her pissed, so the rest of us go put that fricking dude back in his place. He was claiming that it wasn't fair because we were playing very soft D and she fricking went for the ball. short people-----some of the biggest douchebags on the planet.

I played once at the rec. I'm one of the worst basketball players you'll ever meet. So that game may be on someone else's worst pickup stories. They kept telling me not to shoot cus I suck so bad, but frick if I wasn't going to make a basket eventually. And I did, I think I went 1-12. Someone sitting around clapped for me.

used to play pick up with majority guys who played some kind of college ball. first time I ever played with them, I stole the ball from one guy who had been talking shite the whole time by myself going in for the lay up and I missed it...wide open all the black guys just fell out laughing.

Playing at the rec back in college...going for a loose ball, I poked some Asian guy in the guy. I physically felt my finger slide into his eye socket. I felt bad but it wasn't intentional. He was cool about it despite probably being blind in one eye now. I was knocked the frick out on a vicious ball screen in the pi phi shoot out years ago. We were in the semis and losing, totally gassed, and not paying attention. Was following a guy down court...giant black dude who was a good 6-8 inches taller than me laid me out. All I remember is coming to one the sidelines with an ice pack on my neck.
