Fun with Rookies

Rookies always get jokes played on them. Carrying bags etc

I loved it when a rookie was on the bench(always at the end of the bench of course).
The rookie would be all wide eyed and full of beans.

At the right time I would say quickly "the coach said your in", and the young fella would jump up, strip off his track suit and warm up top then kneel next to the coach waiting for instructions.
The coach would look at the kid and say "what the $%#@ are you doing??"
Priceless

You cruel prick. The rookie had 1 advantage over you though- he got the coach to notice him while you were still on the bench

Once while playing at Uni games we had this guy in our team that no one liked. When he got drunk we shaved A.N.U (who were our rival uni at the time)in the back of his head. It took him 3 games and many pay outs later to work out what was going on.

I doubt you've played much senior basketball Hanging Around.

I can recall Michael Jordan ripping Penny Hardaway's pants off as he was introduced to billions in his first all-star game(he was a ROOKIE).

I guess Michael Jordan was a cruel prick too, gee nice company.

Go back to knitting ya pussy.

I've played enough to know a 'tongue in cheek' comment and not bite. You seem to know about knitting- did you learn it on the bench as the rookies slowly replaced you?
Michael Jordan said that you were good company for him also
