Huh, whadyaknow! I don't know what motivated me to go look - bored at work on a dead Wednesday before Thanksgiving perhaps? - but I clicked over and found these photos of me from our Senior Games earlier this year.

I'm in the black shirt... my taped on numbers fell off by this point. The rest of the tape was holding my ankles and left write together.
SHORT PIC ALBUM HERE

WOOOOWHEEE... check out the hang time!!!

You're looking good [img]smile.gif[/img]

Have you explained in a thread what are those Senior Games?

I should search with what words?

SOME OF THOSE 50+ WOMEN LOOKED PRETTY GOOD, TOO!

Team: De Nile (as explained in a different thread, not just a river in Egypt!)

Yes, I did explain elsewhere that this was the Senior Olympic Games in Austin, Texas.

Cool pics, Q! You look like a regular pro. Glad to see you got through it without a sprain or tear of some sort too. Doubt I could claim the same if I played the game. Ewww, didn't meant to rhyme so much.

Oh, I was hurtin' pretty much just from the practicing ahead of time so that's why I MEGA-TAPED the ankles and it was definitely in my mind... the wrist thing happened during, not before. My L knee and L ankle still aren't right but, oh well, what'cha gonna do! Like I think Mahler said, if something wasn't hurting, it just wouldn't feel right!

Awesome pics. On that jumper, you're almost fading away a little... shades of Adrian Dantley.

I even know who that is! Yeah, that guy blocked one of my shots so I had to fade a little. Of course, I got my pay-backs but, unfortunately, it was against one of his teammates who I was guarding at the time.

The guy that I blocked was playing pretty physical so I banged with him. It got pretty rough (relatively speaking ) but, when it was all over, he was the most congratulatory... a good sport!

Nice form on the jumper. During the summer we play Tuesdays at a local park. There was a woman about my age shooting around, very rare. She told us she was practicing for the Pa. Senior Games. Only having nine guys we talked her into playing. She had a nice shot and even tried to rebound. Fortunately for her she just didn't have the bulk for rebounding. She went home with a bruised thigh and a whole new vocabulary. She must have liked it though. She was back the following Tuesday night.

HA! Yeah, right! You can't be past mid-30's at most! That puts you a ways back! Thanks, though.

Bill, I can appreciate the "whole new vocabulary" comment!
