You could include the players that got hurt in the season, who now can't play now. Might b more interesting for those who complained about this post.
Of course if a kid gets hurt during the season and he cant play is he really still on the team?

Bootsie Nickelsworth from Indiana. Played with him in 2005. He was an absolute stud and could drain the three like he was draining the main vein. Ya know? Ya know what I mean?

I disagree. Kids may want to play on the team and there may be circumstances that prevent it. Nowadays basketball requires almost a year round commitment. Some kids may not be able to make that kind of commitment. They may play intramural ball or some other type of basketball. Why would that mean they are a lesser player just because they don't play for the school?
Back when I was in school I loved playing baseball unfortunately baseball season occurred during spring planting and hay season, that had priority.

I went to school with a guy by the name of Elias McAlrennehy. That guy was the best shooter I've ever seen. Would light it up from anywhere. He could make passes you wouldn't believe. One pass I saw Elias make was from near midcourt, he threw a baseball pass toward the bench area with so much spin on it a teammate caught it in stride at the basket and layed it in. Elias McAlrennehy is THE MAN!!!

No it wasn't. I would insert the original offense but as you can see, it was deleted. Something about me being a know it all?

Why don't I play? Quite frankly, I'm not that good. I never played Jr. High. I did work the scoreboard for two years and filmed for the Jeeps in Reese's first year. Yes, I admit that I'm not the greatest ever to not play ball, however, saying that I'm apart some of the same old people on here that don't have a clue is absurd. Also you accused me of bad mouthing people. Provide an example of this "bad mouthing" if its so prevalent. You want to talk about bad mouthing people? :lol: You seem to be living up to your user name fairly well BASH. Now get off your high horse before you make your self look even more foolish.

One final note - You spelled apologize, grammar, shouldn't, and principal wrong.

Did you just say Wes Mullins? As in Joseph Wesley Mullins? He could have played if he was allowed to wear shorts.
