A few of us just signed up for the ABA (Asian Basketball Association) under the team name of 3rd String (other option was Bangcok Blockers). The thing is, we play next Sunday and we still haven’t gotten the entire team together for a practice session. So far our roster stands at 10: Mickee Zenarosa, Dennis Trilles, Roel Concepcion, Ross Colcol, Elliott Moran, Steve Chan, Tony Dever (who hasn’t made it to any practice yet so I have no idea who he is), Eddie Lee, Chris Serafino, and myself. We might pick up a couple more guys like Mike Morgan and whoever else. For jerseys, I had trouble deciding on a number. I figure most people would want 23 and the Lakers lovers 24. Maybe even 8 since it is an Asian league. My options were 1 or 3. I figure my birthday is on 11-01 so that’s all 1s. If someone else wanted 1, I’d go 3 since 1+1+1 = 3. Quite the formula I have going, huh?
I haven’t played on an actual basketball team since third grade and that’s about it so I’m just a bit worried that we’ll lose every game like the Clippers. We tried to practice some plays on Sunday in Santa Monica, but kept getting kicked out so we ended up at Yahoo! Center. No white chicks laying out today, though. It’s only an 8 week season so we’ll see how it goes. It would be nice to finish at .500, but any win is a plus at this point. Wish us luck.
