I got an Idea

tubboy

I don’t’ know how many would be interested in this But, I’m going to throw this out there anyways. A month ago, I, along with many of you, made a new years resolution to loose the fat this year and be more active. I think I know of a fun way to achieve this but, I don’t know how to accomplish it because of the fact that we are all scattered all over the country and world. I Think it would be so cool if some how there could create an organized basketball league for gamers. Companies VS Company. Everyone coming together to play a game non related to our job. It’s athletic, it encourages sportsmanship and it opens up new opportunities to meet new people from different companies and develop new friendships.

I don’t know how to accomplish this and quite frankly, someone like Poop would be better suited to organize such a massive organization.
Has this been thought of? Do any of you think this could happen? If so, what are your ideas on how to “Make it so”?

I guess something like this would be cool, but I'm not 'in the industry,' so I can't really comment. If you were able to organize something like this though, I'm sure EA would hire NBA stars as 'employees' .

It's a noble cause, but highly impractical in practise Im certain.

Surely the vastness of this country makes it a bit of a non starter no?

Around here, EA does have a team for soccer and basketball and other sports yeah, but they compete with other companies in the bay area or even just this business park! A little bit easier to organize than with other companies across this MASSIVE country I think.

The idea Bobo is Athletic invovlment. Excersize and fun. The last thing we al need is to loos all our money to you in a high stakes game....:P

As for this idea, we can orginize it then per sector, state or city. I think the idea is to get us all off our asses and have some fun that does does not require sitting down.

How about 10 push-ups for every 1000 polygons created. And 24 crunches for every boob reference downloaded.

I'm not in the industry but I'd have to say a better sport than basketball would be paintball. ;p

tubboy

Hell yeah, that is a good one. Especially those all nighter tournaments with 2 teams and two camps.
