10pm ressies games

RESSIES, I gave an example of danger in the workplace after dozing off through lack of sleep, I would hardly compare that to the inconvenience of getting your dinner late because of 6pm games.

"EC" you have never been in that situation... So who are you to tell me that i shouldnt have a go at people whinging... The point i was trying make is that, the higer grade players that put up posts on this site jump up and down when they are put out... but the lower grades put up with all the rubbish... nothing more, nothing less...
District basketball is there for everyone to play and that means that everyone should get a shot at playing early games, play games on the good court and heaven forbid be entitled to some decent referees...

RESSIES, for someone who has a grand total of 2 posts on this forum and both of them on the same subject, you are a real "expert" when it comes to my bed times. And just because people have been playing 10pm games since "before" you were born (not sure who you meant)does not mean to say they enjoyed them. On a serious note, it is a health risk to not get enough sleep. What if you were a factory work operating dangerous machinery and you dozed off on the job?

There used to be games at MV each tuesday and they were taken away last year and didnt come back! Yes there is social there but only one court so yes the games could be played there. I know its soooooooo far up the hill but maybe it would let people get home earlier!

10pm games stink. my team got scheduled three of them in a row, and im supposed to start work at 11pm. i can understand the lack of umpires being a problem, but at least spread it around between teams.

sharpshooter, use your brain before you start rubbishing people for "whinging" about late games. Its quite a legitimate complaint. I have never been in that situation but do you not think about the health risks of getting 4 hours of sleep before getting up early to go to work. Not to mention the condition their bodies are in and how serviceable they are to their employers. Imagine how sympathetic an employer would be when you make a mistake because your mind was not up to the job. Its a disgrace that working people play such late games. Its sport, not Friday night at the Pub.

That's OK ya big sooks... Try playing them at Norlunga! Played a number of seasons for North and without fail the only trip down south all season would be a 10pm game. I still managed to get to work for a 6am start. Sounds like the poor pampered div 2's having a whinge, man up the lot of ya's.
