What are some things that you carry in your gym bag to your game assignments. What I'm getting at, is stuff to keep the games running smoothly, rather than personal items. Or maybe, you'd like to reveal some of your personal items to the forum as well.

Do a search for "what's in your bag" and you should find quite a few threads on the subject.

I usually carry a couple of inflating needles.

I like to have one in my pocket to let a little air out of the ball if it's a bit to "lively."

Well, up until yesterday, I always carried at least one pair of slacks in my bag!

How long has the search function been down?
Its been a while since i've had to do a search.

Anyways, i always carry a roll of tape, the medical stuff. Its good for taping down the odd medic alert chain.

Cyber --

When I was doing a lot of rec stuff, I carried a neon orange traffic cone in the trunk of my car. It was about 8" tall. When the site I was at didn't have an AP arrow, or didn't have a functional one, I used the cone, laying it on its side pointing to the appropriate basket. It worked great. Cost about $2.00.

Had everything laid out.
Ready to put in the bag, except the slacks.
They were on a hanger. On the doorknob.
Called home.
Teenage duaghter on the phone. Evidently, doesn't understand the concept of Call Waiting.
Drove home.
Got slacks.
Got back.
They started without me but with a replacement. Cost me a game.

First weekend of the season, so I really hadn't had a chance to empty my FB gear and convert to BBall. Never, ever did that before. Not happy with myself.

Well, it's nice to know you're human. Jurassic, who do you think should star in the movie?

Been a while since I've been the parent of a "young child". Somewhere, in my attic, in an old Dewars box among other paperback classics, is my copy. BTW, most of that box was emptied between years 14 and 17.
