No but it could have been my last competitive game of basketball. Started in grade six, been playing forever and so much it is crazy. At my peak I was playing 4-5 competetive games a week, multiple training sessions, jungle ball on Saturday and random street ball whenever possible. We even had a milk crate nailed to a telephone pole on Wellington Rd opposite Monash so we could play at night.

hey ranga,

just noticed something interesting.. you asked the other day what happened to Chan, he used to be impossible to stop, and is now playing rubbish.. my answer was simply that everyone has loaded up at SG, with good defenders...

well, take a look at the top 10 scorers for the league! 8 of the top 10 come from the Red side, only Chan and Ftochineedanothersouvlaki make it from the blue side.. i think this highlights exactly what i was saying, the blue is just full of top quality defensive players, whilst the red certainly has some highly offensive players, but just dont back it up with Defence..

Same but I need to fix my foot, my toe and then lose a lot of weight. Sigh two years ago I was a lean mean slam dunking machine and now I am Jabba the Hutt.

lol just keep active, and stay away from beer :D beer is the single worst thing you can pour down your throat.

discovering beer and getting my license killed me.. once i got that i drove everywhere, and stopped riding my pushbike..i went from riding 50-60km per day, to nothing, and then eating worse than ever cause i actually had the money to eat shit food :D

i luv Ricky Gervais comedy skit about obesity.. i agree with him 100% from personal experience.. obesity isnt a disease, obesity is more a result of being lazy and eating shit food and drinking shit drinks! sounds harsh, i know, but i didnt get to my weight by eating healthy and regular exercise :D

Well at 30 I was still representing Australia in Handball so I don't think you have to worry about the next 10 years as long as you stay healthy.

Funny this discussion and your name reminds me of one of my favourite Arnie quotes.

"The good life makes you weak, I like to stay hungry."

LOL I just put my stubby to my mouth when I read this. Classic.

Hey guys. Bainsy suggested i drop in and say hello...so...er...hello!

@ Skyhookz: BB and Beer! I've just dropped my kids off with their mother (her turn) and like to get on BB with a beer or...well, whatever the night suggests.

At least this forum is active unlike mine. Mind you, it has had its moments.
