There’s nothing like a game of one on one when you get home from work or on the weekend with some pals. I used to have my very own basketball hoop near my desk at a place I used to work.
I was in the computer field at the time and the place I worked in had this huge warehouse and that’s where the basketball hoop was. It was fantastic. Take a break and thow some hoops every now and then, or play a game on your lunch break. Very cool.
I’d be great to be able to put a basketball hoop system in here at the house but we don’t have a garage. Our neighbors do though – and the back of their garage touches the side of our garden. I wonder if I could attach a hoop there and play in the back yard. Nahhh I’d probably end up ruining the plants.
One hoop system that I like is the Hoops Pro Dunk Diamond. It’s a new high end residential basketball hoop system, and it sounds great. It’s got an 8″ X 8″ pole, and a 5′ foot extension arm, rather than the 4′ extension arm that comes with most systems. The rim and backboard are NCAA grade too.
If I can ever figure out how to put in a basketball hoop system here at our small house that’s the system I’d like to get.
How about my readers? Do any of you have basketball hoops at your home? Do you use them?

I’ve never been much of a better but I do follow Football, baseball and hockey games and occasionally enter into friendly bets with friends. I do know a lot of people that bet seriously on games, well on just about anything really. I guess it can be addictive, and maybe I’m just lucky that it never caught on too much with me.
I did find a site that I’m told is one of the oldest sports handicapping websites online today. Jimfeist.com offers Football Picks and full game analysis on all major games and sports including basketball, football, hockey, baseball, horse racing, golf and many more. Free picks are offered daily as well in order to showcase the handicapper’s talents at calling the game’s winner.
Jimfeist.com has everything you need to stay ahead of the game. There are several sections to the site including scores and stats, Proline, Sports Picks and even contests – there are four active contests right now. You can also get workbooks and magazines, sports schedules, schedule updates, league reports, plus information from Linetracker.com and OffshoreConnection.com.
I know I’m going to have to tell a few friends about this site so they can get their sports picks. I’ll probably never see them anymore once I tell them about this site ’cause they’ll be too busy hanging out on it doing all their sports betting.
