alright so basketball is taking over my life

practice 5 days a week 2 hours a day

2 games on saturday for fall season

during bball season 2 games a week

i already have my decision made for this year but next year gunna try to convince my parents to let me give it up

here is what i have im gunna play bball for 4 years of hs and ski less

but the rest of my life im gunna ski

i want to get better at skiing bc i want to get a job at a ski shop or something

what else will help?
 
^^^^^^

my school schedule will get all messed up

and im already commited to all the school and club teams

yeah idk gah making me mad
 
it happened to me with hockey, it took over everything, so i figured out how to race so i could do it as a part of school and i quit hockey
 
my season doesnt start till november 20 or something

and its over in like the middle of febuary

by then it starts to get slushy
 
i also used to play basketball, and it was still fun, but i realized i wasnt gonig to go anywhere with it, so i dropped it to have more fun with skiing

see if you can still play a more chill rec league or something, where they have a game a weekend
 
i was depating the question also but seeing how:
1. i suck at bball
2. i didnt go for it last year cause of my knee
3. ah id prolly only make jv
4. and i jus plain and simply hate bball as an organized sport
so with this in mind, this year i will prolly end up not playing bball and devoting two hour weekend trips to the nearest ski hill....
 
I love basketball and i use to play rep and highschool. I quit because it was so much commitment and then realized that i would have waayyy more time to ski. Definately the best decision i have ever made.
 
listen, i played on an intense club b-ball team from 5th to 8th grade(i originally started playin in like 1st) and i had practice 3 times a week after school, saturday mornings from 8-10 and sunday night open gyms for like 3 hours and then some weekends wwe would travel outa town and let me tell you i was so fuckin sick of basketballl i just said fuck it and i was done and it was kinda hard cuz my dad was always pushin me and stuff but in the long run he was kinda happy cuz he didnt want me fed up in all the politics in HS ball...so ive skied every year in HS ever since...ya only live once dood, if ur sick of it just say fuck it and do wut ya love fool
 
can you see yourself playing basketball in the future? As in.....are you a good player where college and beyond sound like realistic futures?

I would stick to basketball if that's the case. This is the same situation I was in with baseball and I stuck with baseball........I ended up injuring my arm and I'm done now, but that's life...no regrets.

You can still get a job in a ski shop....how much you ski shouldn't really be relevant.
 
oh ya and dont do the fuckin race team fo HS its fuckin bullshit i just gave it a try for freshmen year thinkin we would leave school early and head up and i would just ditch it and hit the park and ski some other stuff BUT that didnt happen it was fuckin gay...so dont do that.....ski wit yo friends
