6 Ft Over Arrives Late, Leaves Early

June 2nd 2009

Things started late and ended early for 6 Ft Over during their 2nd week of YMCA league action. Coach Shupert was forced to start recent signee Beau Laughridge due to the late arrival of normal starting forward Richard Dengler. Coach Shupert was none pleased with the behavior of his young forward and announced an immediate punishment.

"Richard Dengler didn't start tonight nor will he start next Tuesday," an irritated Shupert declared to the press.

Dengler himself did not comment except to deny the accusation that he was fucking or getting sucked by a bitch, causing him to be late.

"Man if I were (fucking) I'd tell you guys," Dengler stated.

Despite Beau's surprise start 6 Ft Over stayed close to team Fast Break in the first half. Helped by a few line drive jumpshots by the aforementioned Laughridge the team only trailed by a small margin going into half time.

Little to 6 Ft Over's knowledge their opposition on this night included a Tyler Hansborough look-a-like and an asian kid who looked like he belonged in a local chess tournament yet had the ability to sink jump shots from all over the floor.

Despite their opponents advantages 6 Ft Over grabbed a modest lead early in the 2nd half. Things looked good when Tyler Hansborough Jr. headed to the mens room to take a shit with 7:35 to go.

Hansborough Jr. never returned from the crapper but his team didn't need him. Fast Breaks's other players decided to make a few lay-ups and 6 Ft Over shot 0-17 to close out the contest.

The loss leaves 6 Ft Over's season looking cloudy. Yes their are teams in this league that contain 5-9 35 year olds with beer bellies but it also contains teams with 6-6 Division 1 Basketball players that you would recognize from ESPN.

Despite the increase in competition 6 Ft Over remains confident and looks forward to beating on the old men and getting beat on by the 6-6 brothers that dunk from where ever they want.
