Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 3817685, member: 9260"] lots of weird/funny dunk experiences for me, mostly on the receiving end. ouch. playing in a meatpackers for pay league in kali, early on i learned the hard way what 'local team' meant. as in 'local refs.' in spite of regular whinings by my team, and getting nowhere fast with the zebras, the other squads big guy was allowed to do anything he wanted -elbows, stiff arm on the drive, u name it, as one ref had his back, [I]and said so. [/I] that big guy, 'hackapotamus,' unmolested, flys in for a slam. ball rips thru, hit's someone exactly on the shoulder or back, and ricochets directly into the face of really bad zebra. glasses, nose, etc explode on impact, blood everywhere, 911 called. we didn't laugh too much at the time, cuz no one was carrying, and we all wanted to get home safely as it was a non-division game, but in the cars later? iirc, it was aboot an hour or so back home to sf, with nothing but talk aboot how each of us saw it ('it was off his head! it was off his shoulder! it never hit anyone before clocking the ref!' and etc). man, we were cracking up the whole time. justice! he got served, and we're leaving with our body parts intact! hoo-ray! edit: often heard in the car after many of those games -'we got all of our teeth? cool, next up, micky d's!' way better than the 'who needs to hit the emergency room' conversations. 'why is my thigh purple? why is my ear now near my elbow? you really can see stars like on the cartoons! [I]meatpackers league -[/I] don't do that, even if they pay four figures a game (not me. i got a benjamin or so per game, as i was usually #7 or #8 on that squad.) [/QUOTE]
