    Not a huge Greenlake fan because the games often break down into bitching sessions.

    One of my buddies is a constant fixture at the IMA and because of that there is a lot more team focused vs one on one play.

    Add to that that I have a lot of long time friends I run into at the IMA and it is a no brainer for me.

    Which base are you talking about? How do you get on?

    Fort Lewis has major competition, not much bitching being a military base and such.

    ...why the fuck is he playing basketball? That's how half of these morons get hurt in the offseason...at least when I was at UW.

    Under Neu Ty and Sark yes, under Lambright and James no

    Lots of mythology in this thread. James's players played a lot of basketball. There were years when they'd mop up the floor with the basketball team.

    He's 100%. He probably could have come back towards the end of last season.

    One thing to watch for, he was 179 in 2014. He was up to 192 on the last roster. So he should have more strength and be able to break more tackles than a did early in his career.

    192? Sounds like Ivan got ahold of him.

    The success of Ross will depend on if Browning has developed a touch on his deep ball. Browning's deep passing game was the one area he really needs to improve on. If yes, Ross will be a weapon. He's 10 times the deep threat that Gay Don was

    Water is wet. Browning's deep ball sucks.

    A healthy Ross will at least prevent the free safety from cheating toward the LOS...but is he healthy?
    Browning's deep ball will be fine by the time he turns 20.

    I was in a fraternity with a number of James-coached players. A lot of them did play basketball at the IMA, but they did so at their own risk. He didn't like it, and didn't want them to do it.

    Steve Hoffman played basketball at the WAC. I know because one of my two dads told me. He said he was an asshole.

    Why do you hate veterans?

    One of my oldest friends down there is 79 or 80 and still plays ... it's damn inspiring actually

    I played hoops with Ross a few weeks ago ... he physically looked to be as quick and explosive with his jumping ability as I would have expected him to be. Talking with him he said that he was 100% and now just looking to get his legs back under him, built up, and strong.

    I would be very surprised if he wasn't a full go for Spring.

    Awesome, but why the fuck is he playing basketball? That's how half of these morons get hurt in the offseason...at least when I was at UW.

    Nope, they just smoked weed and fucked chicks.
