I don't really agree but even if they were sharp, you'd want your partners to have the same shirts too.

I don't worry about that stuff (ie., patches, poly, panels) at all, except if my partner has V-neck, then I wear V-neck. If my partner wears byron collar, then I wear V-neck.

New Nike Air Monarch IIs. I've worn them for volleyball and they are soooo comfortable. I added an Odor Eater (for obvious reasons) and a Dr. Sholl's orthotic for a little extra support. Also, new pants. I've lost 28 pounds and the old ones were falling off. And a new belt to go with the pants! (Here we go on the belted / beltless thing!) I've also been using a Fox 40 Mini CMG for volleyball. I noticed that the new Mini CMGs are the same size as my old Classic CMG and is every bit as loud. The new Classic CMGs feel like you're putting a 2x4 in your mouth! Finally, gonna get a new pre-game jacket soon. The satin finish one from between the lines.

[B]Shoes, for me, too. Nike Air Monarch II's. I'm gonna try 'em as-is first, but I may also throw in an insert to try out.

Add 'em. You'll be glad you did. I was.

I can relate! Working on getting back into shape though. I've got about a week (next Friday) until my first game.

Tanner,
How the heck have you got a game in a week?

7th grade tourney to kick things off. It's a two day deal, starting on Friday and ending Saturday. Always a nice way to start things off and get on the court.

One thing I'm thinking about picking up is the rules and casebook on cd for the computer. Is it worth the money? Can I load it onto my palm pilot? Someone posted the website to order it, but I haven't done so yet. I'm especially interested in the baseball one as I'm newer to baseball and need some work (a couple of coaches might say alot of work) on the rules.
No, I don't have an ego and like quoting myself, I just wanted to check and see if anyone has used this. I though maybe my post got lost in the shuffle. Any info on this program would be greatly appreciated.

I've learned when I see a pair of all black shoes I like, to buy 2 pairs of them. They don't last on the market long. So I still have a brand new pair of Nike Shox Elevate from last year ready for this season. I haven't seen any new all black Nike's that look as cool as the Elevate does. And I get to see pretty much what's coming out for the next year ahead...
One size down with 25 lbs less? I would go down more sizes than that if I lost 25 lbs.

I was squeezing into those 36's at my heaviest - I refused to buy *gasp* size 38 pants. So I was stretching the 36's to their breaking point. Now I'm wearing 34's comfortably - loosely even. I could probably squeeze into a 32 if I dropped 10 more...

Good job, Smitty.

Yeah they came in all black. Even the Nike swoosh is black.

ARS Software
 
I've got last years version of the ARS software for Basketball. It requires the CD, so it won't run on your Palm Pilot.

It's nice to be able to do a search for the rules, but no especially useful without a PC handy (like in the locker room).

It does include the previous 5 Part I and II tests. I bought it to prepare for last years Part II and it was very helpful.

I'd love a palm pilot version, that'd be really cool.
