This topic makes me happy.

Basketball and male-bonding = fun

I'll just get my excuses out there early (God, I have the worst reasons not to play):

The wife and I are both standing up in a wedding this fall, and September has been chosen for all of the prelim stuff. Bachelor/bachelorette parties and a couples shower - three weekends in a row in September.

While I'm on it, is there anything more horrible in the world than the idea of a "couples" wedding shower? I mean really, ladies, we don't mind at all if you just keep the damn things all for yourself. :evil:

September is bad month for Spanky to play Hoops 5. I'm down for October.

9/12 is UofI versus ISU and a night game so I'd be a tentative "go" for that day.

9/26 is UofI versus Ohio St. Mark me down as a tentative "no way in hell" for that day.

Also, 10/24 might conflict with the Cubs World Series schedule.

Just throwing that out there for you guys to chew on.

The more I think about it, the more I am leaning towards the october date. Just don't see it getting pulled off so quickly.

I think I can probably be in shape for this next Hoops deal, especially being given that much notice, so count me in :weelchairbb:

Time for you all to be silence by the ridiculously awesome perimeter play of the Darkside.

add my no vote for Sept. Just bought a house (closing in mid-Sept) and will be very busy for that month, on top of my freakish work schedule the last five/six months. October sounds good for now though. Apologies for not being on the board to get Hoops 5 together. Remember when it was a joke, hoops events that is? I was but a rookie on the board at that time...

Oh they're still a joke. Haven't you watched us play?

I'm in for whenever.

I am definitely interested, especially if it falls in October.
COF, I have been wearing my Hoops I t-shirt all summer
with much pride. I even think that neon green color is
coming back in style. No one bothers to read the shirt,
since no one has asked about it yet. If asked, I will be sure to
make it clear to them that, even if I tried to explain the
event.... They just wouldn't understand.

Maybe we could go do something else before Hoops. Bowling, drinking, bowling & drinking, etc.

I'm good with drinking before Hoops (I've played drunk before) but bowling might tire out my jump shot.

You...

I was just thinking October seems like a million miles away. It shouldn't be that hard to rent out the same Bowling alley we used last time. No?

pizza_Place: Wha Happen?

first off, I love that people are still wearing the shirts, T-Bone...

Secondly, I do think it's a great idea to do something before hand or after, but I think bowling should be a separate event as it draws a lot of the Hoops guys but a completely different cross-section of the board. We will do a bowling outing again, at the same lanes (except I won't pay for anyone this time) and maybe we'll do that in Nov. or Dec...

Third, I'm in for Oct. 24th as far as I know. Do you want to take care of the gym rental, Vince or do you want me to?

Fourth, youre right about Hoops still being a joke, Killer...I didn't stick around last time to witness the carnage, but I should be able to this time...

SOMEBODY left w/o paying for their bowling. Either that or the lady couldn't add. Either way, I was out some extra cash at the end of the event...
