Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 3517416, member: 9260"] some years back, I played in a 'semi-pro' league in metro sf. meatpackers city tough. walking towards the hs gym with my buddie, who was the only reason why I was on the team and collecting around $100 a game (sweeeet. cash moneh to basically sit on the bench, and mebbe play a bit when the 'stars' couldn't make a game), he says 'ya see? ya see? check out those guys from the other squad, standing around pounding beer and blowin blunts. [I]be prepared[/I], and remember I told you that it could get ugly.' most of that league were guys on the other side of 'chasing the dream' yet still committed to the muscles. now I've played in leagues all over before, and seen my share of unusually strong ballers, but I never saw/felt anything like that. literally, after every game, players from both teams were only a few less drugs away from visiting the er. talk aboot 'bringing the pain,' I started to half expect the zebras to show up in bow ties, and say 'go to your corners' a lot. I don't have an opinion on whether hs'ers should be allowed to go g league, but I do know that each and every one who does, is gonna get whacked. big time. mostly because of the 'you ain't comin between me and my money' thing. ouch.
