I was just trying to see as much ball as quickly as possible to get experience. I was told that there is no substitute for getting games under your belt.

We have a a term for people like that in our area -- whores.

Are you kidding? If I worked that many games I'd have knee-monia! And my feet would hurt so bad I'd have to call a toe truck!

Given what he's disclosed so far he's not just a whore, he's a lying whore.

Better than a lying, cheating whore.

Then he'd be from Hackensack, not Southern California.

Give it time.

Someone mentioned not being sharp after 5 or 6 games. I can be sharp for two rec games and at the end of two high school games I start to get downright testy.

So Mark, we're now quoting our own posts as an excuse to post these absolutely useless pictures. Toe truck? You find this clever?

I dunno... maybe it is time the forum owners to simply disable links to gifs. Apparently the public mocking of these cute giffy posts isn't getting the message across to Billy & Mark.

Gee, Dan - if they bug you so much, why don't you just put both of us on your ignore list. Then you'll never be bothered with "cute giffy posts" ever again as long as you live. Then, I guess, you'll be happy. I apologize for just trying to cheer things up from time to time. I didn't realize I was ruining your life. Sorry.

You're give yourself too much credit. You're not ruining my life and you're not the director of entertainment responsible for forum cheer. Frankly, it's not even worth my time to put you on my ignore list to avoid your cute giffy posts. I'm just kinda hoping you'll stop.

Anyway, feel free to put me on your ignore list if it makes you more cheerful.

No way. I enjoy an occasional guffaw.

Sorry about the gif. Couldn't help myself.

FWIW Mark, IMO, it's not the pictures, it's the number of them. Not every post needs one, and, in fact, I don't think I can recall more than a handful that have added to the conversation.

(And, to be clear, this isn't directed only at you -- the same applies to many of the posters here.)
