Pros and Cons of 5:30am basketball

Lets start with the cons since there's more of them

CONS
1. It's basketball at 5:30 AM! Need I say more?
2. It's dark
3. It's insanely cold(at least this morning cause it was 11.1 degrees)
4. The winds like the railgun like in Eraser with 'THE GOVENATOR", nullifies you clothing and goes straight to your bones
5. No matter how warm you made yourself before you went outside, you became instantly cold again upon leaving your dwelling
6. Can't shoot well (cause your fingertips are cold)
7. Get outrun by old men
8. Get your ankles broken by old men
9. Get overpowered... You basically get your ass handed to you, by old men
10. Coming off 3 hrs sleep is not a good thing
11. The alarm radio is set to 88.1 and only the shitty music plays at 5:30 am.
12. Don't have time for breakfast
13. After you get all warm and sweaty you have to go back outside to the icebox known as Raleigh
14. Later on the sun pierces your soul and you feel like a vampire
15. When you go home you need a shower but that become secondary to sleep
16. SEE PROS #4... Only to have it come crushing down with less than you had before


PROS
1. You need the exercise
2. Go ahead and play at 5:30 and it doesn't interfere with the rest of the day
3. You get to dunk on old men... given that you can dunk a basketball
4. Get to see the much older competition and have your tiny ego inflated
5. Its fun
6. Compete against friends
7. Old men have man boobs and you can feel them while playing defense
8. No matter how badly you perform, the old men with man boobs will pick up your slack and they'll still win
9 You get to see the giant version of Rob Cordry
10. You do good, and get recognized and one day you will become Hokage!!!... Wait... That's Naruto
11. Damn


so there you have it, 5:30 am basketball pros and cons. It was fun and there was awesome competition. I don't want to offend anybody but I don't rekon the folk I would offend would be reading my blog. It's just that, all these old white guys know how to play basketball. They have the formula of a right mixture of knowing when to pass and knowing when to take it themselves. It was a truly a fun experience and I think I'll be up for it on Friday again, Christmas Eve!

Result: more cons than pros but the pros outweigh the cons
