It was good because of the lack of physical play and actually had basketball players on the court who could shoot well and knew what a pivot foot was. Even the refs called fouls and travelling. The stuff we see today is our fault - refs - with no sense of the game letting everything get out of control. Where did we go wrong?

Well, for one thing, the players stopped wearing real shorts.

Thanks guys! It's good to be back. I've been on several years ago at work (yeah I was cheating my boss) but lost access and my password and just got back online at home recently. I learned a lot chatting in here back then and hope to learn more in here now. Well, the game is on so I'm going to catch up on some "new philosophy" techniques to sharpen my game with.
