Halfbakers squabaling everywhere
What is it about trampolines and halfbakers that makes them squable so ?-- skinflaps, Nov 17 2002 Amazing. It's an argument where everybody seems to agree somehow... (checks to see if he hasn't slipped into the twilight zone)-- RayfordSteele, Nov 17 2002 Don't drag me in to the fight. I don't care whether it's mfd or not. I was just doing my usual thing: attempting to determine whether or not an idea would work in the real world. Not an appropriate thing to do around here I suppose.-- half, Nov 18 2002 // Not an appropriate thing to do around here I suppose. //
You catch on quick ....-- 8th of 7, Nov 18 2002 Yep. It's only taken me 7 months to finally figure out that I don't belong here.-- half, Nov 18 2002 half, When i saw your query, i decided that a little practical experiment was in order. I went down to the local sports centre and found otu if there was a trampoline club, or some such, and they told me that they met on Sunday nights.
So, on Sunday i went along and pretended that i didn't speak Norsk, and proceded to attempt to bounce the basketball on the trampoline. It was difficult at first, as with any new skill, but after a while it became easy, and i was able to bunce the ball with a reasonable level of competence.
Then i was asked to leave.-- tyskland, Nov 18 2002 <Franz>Trampolinical Basketball is still a Girlie Sport</Franz>-- thumbwax, Nov 18 2002 I notice 'Chill Pill' hasn't been posted yet.-- Admiral Hackbar, Nov 18 2002 And oddly, neither has 'Anti-Admiral Device'.-- tyskland, Nov 18 2002 Dead Kennedy's lyric to "I Kill Children":So you're in the kids' ward You're in there cos you're ill How about some Pavulon So I can see you chill-- thumbwax, Nov 18 2002 Schnell schnell! Der tysklander in das boot!-- Admiral Hackbar, Nov 18 2002 Curses, he's using my native language! I concede! I concede!-- tyskland, Nov 18 2002 Hey man thats as far as it goes. No wait. I also know Gott in Himmel.-- Admiral Hackbar, Nov 18 2002 " Will the jury please stand"

we want more time so we can be fair
this trampoline...its only square "-- skinflaps, Nov 18 2002 They actually have something like this,on Spike TV, called SlamBall.
I hate to say this but,this idea has been used in America,and it seems to be a good idea.
Only the court's paints have trampolines (4),but still good idea,tyskland.-- gamerguy, Dec 04 2003 slamball is awesome ... thats all i have to say-- luecke, Dec 04 2003 random, halfbakery
