RE: Between the Green and Gold

So, I'm now past competitive age but I am getting into the best competitive shape I've ever been into, in the game I care for the most, which is basketball. There was a small clique of streetball players from a couple of consequent generation when my generation was in the lower tier, i.e. high school. When I got out of town, to the city an into the University, I then had a lot of choices and I went for a couple of exotic sports which I had not touched before. Both involving cold weapons. Cool. But I made no attempt to join a college basketball team. At that point I had accepted I was just not tall enough.

Nowadays, I am doing it as the fitness stuff that comes with no resistance. Indeed, I desire it and would go the extra mile to get there and play some when I find the time and the weather is fine...da ba di di da-a-a-a...

Mostly playing alone. Not enough people in town to find me an opponent, a partner, a whatever. The sun has set on this...this is one kind of thinking.

The other kind of thinking is I might be able to some day inspire some kids hard and get them play because they burn for it...who knows...
