I love playing basketball, and at times I’m even sort of serious about it. But I’m really not that good. I mean, I’m better than most girls, and I’m better than most middle school kids, and I’m better than someone who has never played before. But I have no place in an adult rec. league because those guys are mostly ex-high school or college guys and are way too good for me.
I wish there was a Retard Basketball League. These would be some of the rules:
You can’t play in the league if:
- you can make more than 50% of your free-throws
- you can jump up in the air and touch the rim
- you own a basketball jersey of any kind
- you can do any “tricks” like throwing the basketball off of someone’s head and then catching it and making a shot like the guys in “And 1.” (which I actually find very fun to watch, sort of like skate videos in a weird way)
- you wear basketball shoes like Jordans or anything. Vans or old school Chucks are preferred
