MY PASS TIME

Vander_V · Oct 7, 2004

I cant fucking wait to hit the links again, golfing time is here and the weather is perfect cant wait till my show is done so i can play a nice round of 18 smoke a cigar and have the beer girl in that little red cart bring me a nice cold smooth Guiness.

golf rules anyone else drive for show and putt for dough.

BigBoyJ · Oct 7, 2004

Haha, bet they don't see many people like you on the golf course. I can't imagine how golf could possibly be fun. It's like playing fetch with yourself. How can that possibly be entertaining?

Hey vander I went golfing once when I was down in florida. It was one of the best times of my life. I never thought I could enjoy it, but i truly did. It is very hard though especially when it is 103 degrees outside and sunny. I was terrible, but I cant wait to go again. Only this time it will be in nice cool New York when it isnt 103 degrees.

Vander_V · Oct 8, 2004

Vander tell me ur not a smoker are u? How the hell do you swing a club with ur huge chest? cant be much of a backswing. My favorite pasttime is wrestling lol. I still coach kids and roll for fun. Its great, if ur a wrestler ur addicted for life. Anyone who has done it and been good knows what im talkin about, unlike almost any other sport.

WELL im actually extremely cordinated when it comes to sports i can play all sports and im above average in all of them and semi pro in one sport , i have great hand eye cordination its just seems to be easy for me to hit a 100mph fast ball or drive a golf ball 300+ or serve a tennis ball 125mph , these things seem to be very hard for some people but not me , im gonna quote from good will hunting " when mosart looked at a piano he could just play " thats how these certain things are for me i can just play but obviously not as great as Mosy HAHAHA, you would be surprised TP4U what sports i have acheived greatness in, shit BB something ive grown to like ,not like golf , golf for me isnt about competition its about self enjoyment. one day when i start my family and have enough money set aside i will vacation alot and play golf , F bodybuilding my days of that will be long gone brotha

oh and by the way i can play the piano

and i play it by ear NO NOTES just by the sound of the keys , that to is easy for me not sure why.

TooPowerful4u · Oct 8, 2004

Haha last time i played in a league was for high school and i batted .740 for JV as a freshman (didnt play becuase of wrestling for next 3yrs cause i felt i was better there and focus everything there). Baseball used to be my passion and still to this day me n my boys play homerun durby all summer long 5 days a week. Its funny i still go to the batting cages and can rip 85mph fastballs like nothing still to this day with no practice, but for some reason i cant get my hands back and forth across my chest too easily trying to golf. I used to hit the driving range regularly, took some time off, now im just not flexible enough for golf anymore. Im still an all around athlete in basketball, football, wrestling especially, and any other retarted game we decide to do. Me n my boys are still kids lol. I figure having a great physique is nothing if u compromise ur athletic ability, gotta be diverse.

A few years ago i was so multi-talented. without a doubt i was one of the best ball handlers around, i was nicknamed White-chocolate. I'm only 5'8 and could almost dunk; i could get up there easily; just not with a ball in my hands. I could have done very well. I was just too short. Good at track, longjump, triple jump, always in the paper for baseball. Passed on a partial scholarship. Now i feel like a bumb. Its amazing how it leaves you if you don't keep up with things. i was dribbling the b-ball around a lil bit and i couldn't believe how bad I got. i don't even feel athletic anymore. I'm sure things would return again if I practiced. I honestly don't know how u guys have time. Vander, is you life nothing but play? LOL you seem to have a great well rounded life man. You must manage your time very well. I'm envious of some of you. you guys are quit older than me but seem more youthful.

I was never good at GOLF. Let me tell you, I am banned from one of the local courses, We would drive the carts around like maniacs and see who could make the sharpest turns while going full speed (this was back in H.S). LOL. I enjoy going though, especially to nice courses. Just something about it. I could not imagine you swinging a club though.

where did you learn to play the piano.....that is something i've always wanted to learn. I bet u could get alot of tale by impressing the women with your piano skills. Just like the R. kelly video. wearin some silk PJs with some candles around. LOL

Vander_V · Oct 8, 2004

CONAN

to be quite honest i didnt learn how to play the piano i just could , we had a very nice yamaha piano while growing up , i just sat down and played a song i heard on the radio that day and i said hey mom have you ever heard that song before and she said did you just play that by ear and i said yea . Ive never played for any girls though , i was always embarrased that they would think it was lame and dorky , but i did play for my lady as of now and she cried , i was like whats the matter , she said it was moving and she couldnt believe i was actually musically talented . just like she thought i couldnt hit a golf ball straight as an arrow 300+ her mouth dropped as i cleared the driving ranges 300 marker swing after swing i was mad and it was amazing the precision she had brought out in me , having her has made me better in all that i do .

basketball well thats one sport i can play well i had the ability to grab the rim back in my days but now im to big i guess lol but i can still hoop shit it and let it rain in yo eye HAHAHAA, well maybe not anymore but it sure was fun trash talking on my bball court we had built in my backyard it was pretty cool all my friends from every grade would line up packed to play in the 3 on 3 games held in my backyard shit we even had music to fire things up like MC hammers 2legit to quit and my friend fat Squeeby on the microphone hyping it up HAHAAHA no joke , it was competitive as hell winner take all and loosers were eliminated for the day so you better bring yo best cause the little freshmen girls were a watching

fun times i tell ya.

Vander

It's a hobby I don't need... TOO damned addictive from what I can gather from my mates who do play it. You start by just whacking a little white ball and trying to get it into a hole, and before you know it you're up at 6am every Saturday trying your sanity to get it in one shot better than last time.

Supposed to be good for the soul though, I reckon that'd be true, esp with some of the golf courses we have around here.

I can just see you doing a photo shoot post-comp on the course! IronMike

I'm with Vander on Golf. I haven't mastered the driver yet, but I'm lethal with a 6 iron (hit that f'er almost 200 yards). You don't need to be that flexible to golf. Take a shorter back swing, when you're as strong as we are you don't need a full swing to get a big shot. There is a certain tranquility when you're on the course though. You are playing a game on some of the most beautiful real estate in the country. If I'm having a bad round I'll just stop playing and enjoy the scenery while my buddies are playing. One of the negatives of bbing in my opinion is that it restricts you from enjoying other sports. I played football, basketball, baseball and ran track in high school. I used to play pick up games of basketball daily, and I ran with some D-I players and more than held my own. At 5'9" 250-260 I wasn't going to run the point in any pick up games any time soon though. I missed the competiveness of athletics, it's one of the reasons I decided to diet down. I am down to 220-215 now with veins in my abs etc, it feels good to be able to run, jump and do all the things I enjoyed for years. I was so worried about getting big that I lost sight of the other things I enjoyed.

Vander,

PASS TIME = pastime. As in a hobby.

jawbreakerkid · Oct 8, 2004

I was going to correct that but chose not to

The spelling on these boards can make my eyes cross sometimes, but this is a bbing board, not a spelling bee! (reading post again to check for errors)

Fishing

Golf is a nice sport and when your done I definetly like sitting outside,early evening,relaxing with your friends smoking fine cigars.Thats the good life right there.

My true pastime is fishing.I love being on the water,it relaxes me so much.Especially when I go offshore (80 - 100 miles) in the "deep" for tuna etc.Its a different world out there.Crystal blue water,dolphins,whales,manta rays,sharks.You see things out there you normaly only see on the discovery channel.And the sunsets and sunrise are unreal.The best part is being hooked up to a 100 + lb tuna for 30 minutes,fighting like a runaway train.Those fucking animals are strong as shit and will break you.This is the best time of year in the Northeast for this type of fishing and I try to go as often as possible.......

drgoodbody · Oct 8, 2004

Cool BN - where do ya go fishing???

V V - didn't mean to hijack your thread, but i despise golf - prolly cause i suck at it.

Golf is a great sport. It's relaxing when it's sunny, 72 degrees and your surrounded by all of the trees and green grass. When the day is through you can have a few cold ones and a smoke. I also know a guy who plays everyday and is in his 80's.
Basketball is another fun sport. Not the greatest,but sometimes get a nice rythem and and can't miss from outside. You got to have other hobbies or you will just burnout.
