Any cost to use the gym? I know that was a point of contention when we've considered playing at churches in the past. No offense if it's not the case at your gym.

Nope, one of the guys who usually plays is a youth pastor at the church, so it is free.
Don't be a **** to Cash. He just wants to play basketball and this group hasn't gotten it's **** together yet.
Hopp, calm down man. I'm not upset with Cash. We're getting it figured out. Urbandale's a bit farther for Ames folks but maybe it could work.
Sorry. I'm all hyped up from arguing in the cave. I got a little antsy in my pantsys
If we're still looking to play in Ankeny does anyone know where good courts are? I guess I just assumed we'd play outdoors. Not sure if there even are indoor courts anywhere in Ankeny
I heard ESPN was gonna be there with a camera crew for the Ocho. We'll be on right after the regional unicycle dodgeball championship
Last time we played I think it was near hopp's house, but I couldn't tell you where it was. @cyhiphopp is that still a decent option for us?
@Fitzy now that you're living down there, any suggestions?
What, you think I ever come out of my house?
There are a handful of parks with full courts. Just a matter of finding one that isn't currently being used when we go to play. Sunrise Park is close to my place and has a couple courts. I believe the one we played at before near Hopp's place with one court was Glenbrooke. Other options that aren't quite as far off I-35 are Crestbruck (1 court) and Briarwood (2 courts).
Considering I deliver your groceries to you every week, I suppose you wouldn't know much about courts. Going to a park with 2 courts might be nice from an availability standpoint.
We used to play for 2-2.5 hours but I don't know if we could do that anymore. You should play. I speak for many of us when I say we're not in elite shape.
DMACC has a couple of courts too. I don't know how they feel about old men taking over the courts though.
Honestly no idea. We haven't played together for years. I think we usually played for what, 90, 120 minutes? Enough time to play a few 5 on 5 pickup games to 21.
