Let me give you an example.
When I was a kid we use to play this game called "Yellow Fever"
The game had simple rules.1. Take a tennis ball and mark it.
2. Acquire a tennis racket.
3. Designate a "King"
4. All others close their eyes and lay flat on the ground.
5. The "King" hits the tennis ball.
6. First one to find the tennis ball and return it back to home base becomes the new King.
Other than that, there are no rules.
Deceit? Fine. Alliances? Common. Violence? Encouraged.
But here's the thing. This would make for great TV. AM I RIGHT!!!!
So for the Shit Storm, we want to hear about any types of sports/games that you want to see go pro.
When I say "go pro" I mean anything that you would want to watch on a weekly basis. (TV)
You can tackle this problem several ways.
1. Make up a sport.
2. Take an existing sport that is not mainstream.
3. Use a theoretical sport....like my first selection.
SPEEDBALL!!!
So let me get this straight. There is a game. Combining aspects of football, soccer,and basketball. Along with body checks, flying spinning kicks, and customizable armor?
Count me the Fuck in.
So for the shit storm tell us the sport/game you want to see go pro.
And just for some strict guidlines, let's keep this to things that are currently not on T.V, so sorry things like Soccer and Tennis are out of the picture.
Storm Begin.

I think this is a great idea, but seriously if Slamball can't make it what can?
ReplyDeleteSuccess doesn't factor into this. Hell you could pick croquet if you want to.
ReplyDeleteSlamball's still on tv, sometimes.
ReplyDeleteThey could make a professional Butt's Up league. The stipulation is that to play in the league, you must have tested positive for steroids while employed by a major-league team.
ReplyDeleteHey an all A-11 league.

Does paintball count? If not, I'd like to see some faux-combat.
ReplyDeleteUnicycle clown jousting.
ReplyDelete'nuff said.
Jousting. But instead of unicycles and clowns, with badasses and mighty steeds. So you know, real jousting.
ReplyDelete...I'm guessing you don't relate badasses and clowns like I do.
ReplyDeleteYes Paintball would count, except I want to see the large scenario battles instead of "hey let's just hold the trigger down ball" that you see on TV.
ReplyDeleteClowns are stupid, real jousting would be sooooo much better.
I would also want to see a professional bottle rocket war league.
ohhhhh shit Hacky Sack. Except I want Jefferson County rules.
ReplyDeleteget in a circle, after 3 hits anyone can pick up the sack and throw it at someone. If you get hit you have a strike, if you miss you have a strike.
3 Strikes=Grab the tailgate of your truck, remove your wallet, and let everyone in the game throw the hacky sack at your ass.
And yes strikes do carry over. I'm currently sitting at 1.

ReplyDeletePaintball is the hold down trigger and hose that it is today becayuse of the cheater boards. They now have modes such as Ramping and PSP (2 most common) which allow you to shoot in the area of 20 bps while only pulling the trigger at a 3 bps rate. The leagues are slowly regulating this by lowering the allowable rate. I think PSP is at 13.33 balls a second at this point. which is stupid because with double triggers it's easy to shoot past that w.o the cheater boards, ramping or PSP modes.
Check out the AXBL and become a fan of Fort Drum Crazy Paint....that's my shit
back to the Tuesday edition of the Storm...are we talking rodeo clowns or circus clowns? a rodeo clown would kick the crap out of a circus clown...unless it's a steven king "It" clown....
Icehouse wouldn't even mess with those
