Amongst all these serious questions, I am compelled to find more play in my life. Compelled but not necessarily driven in that mid-winter kind of way. But if I could get myself through the snows and into the gym, it would be a good dodgeball league more than anything that might get me there.
The Los Angeles Dodgeball Society is a weird mix of kids play and ’70s and ’80s style. Here are the rules which are a little more involved than the good old murderball that I recall. Murderball was basically you get hit and you are our with only one ball in play. These guys appear to play with about ten balls at once. Post-first person shooter murderball. Post- pre- and perhaps mid-game beverages appear to be a key factor as well.
I am glad I got back into soccer on the grass, pool swimming and even the exercise room but I wonder what game I would really like to play again in a gym if I had a chance amd twenty or so other nimrods? Floor hockey would be up there. Maybe basketball. Definitely dodgeball. Bloggers ought to adopt dodgeball as the official sport of cyberia. It is after all the ultimate nerd game.
