OT MLB to PDX: We're talking baseball to PDX

Why aren't they playing 4 on 4?! Amateurs...

 

Nah FAMS! Not on a hoop in front of the house. Not enough room here in the inner city.

 

Then you should have posted your prom picture if laughs is what you’re aiming for son! #BAM

 

No 3pt line, huh? Well, 2v2 is better than nothing...

 

It's more than the year long sports though, at least here in Texas, if they aren't playing on a team, they are in these massive training gyms with small group instructors, if not one-on-one private coaching. There is very little chance for just organic play. We have a couple of courts that you will see pick-up games at night but even driving through our young neighborhood, you very rarely see kids just out and about. When I go on my runs I see a handful of hoops outside and only one or two that are ever seen being used.

 

the point remains. the fact that your street is apparently living in 1965 is irrelevant. Congrats. Truly. Its nationwide as indicated by the many links/references/sources that state unstructured, disorganized, random "play" has decreased. That was all I am saying. They dont do it as often. I am not talking about your driveway.

 

No but that cannot be true. Theres a Junior high in northeast Portland with games all the time.
