I would f*ck all you all up.

You can not beat me. 2nd place Padre Sierra...beat Quemont Greer's team.

I don't hold back for old men or kids either. I'm talking elbows running back if some oldie starts making a few sky hooks.

You got yourself a challenge... member of a 3rd Place Padre Sierra team... Still play regularly, also workout regularly... bring it on!

And you lied somewhere in your post... Quement Greer's team won it all in 1997, and he was the tournament MVP...

Unless you were talking about 1996, when Greer was a 7th grader playing in an 8th grade league... then you would have played for St. John Vianney ... and if that is correct, I am bred to hate you, as you guys were our rival 7-8th grade... Im a few years younger than you, and they were the only team that gave us any bit of trouble in our league schedule.

You guys are completely overrating the Padre Serra. The Catholic school leagues around the area are not good.

I'd whoop you all up. Got a good 6 years less of wear and tear on my joints.

In all seriousness, our church holds pickup games every week on Monday nights. Any scoopers in the Green Bay area feel free to PM me if you're interested.

Catholic school ball in most areas is now pretty craptastic. It used to be one of the only ways that kids could play ball outside of the YBA and on the playground, but with the advent of middle school "travel teams," the quality of coaching and play in the Catholic schools has declined rather rapidly.

Here in Indiana, we had a Catholic school team that went 38-0 a few years ago, and only one of those kids (who are now sophomores or juniors) is playing in high school.

For the most part I would agree with you. The club teams and aau teams have taken the best players away and the milwaukee archdiocese did not allow participation on any other team. But now out of necissity the archidiocese as of last year has allowed palyers to play both on a club team and a school team. They also allow parishioners who go to public school to participate. The quality of players has therefore slightly improved.

Having said that I coached a pretty good team and entered several tournaments with public schools also in the tournament. We always whipped up pretty good on the public school teams as did most decent catholic school teams.

TJ Bray was Padre MVP in 2006, he's done OK. But I think your right about travelling team influence.

My kids school was looking good for a run @ Padre championship, but one dad had the swell idea that the three best players needed better competition and started a traveling team. We went to the quaterfinals with what we had left. Funny thing, only one of the three played varsity basketball (they all could of). 2 of the three play D1 football, one plays d2 football. One douche nozzle dad had to throw his weight around though.

Parents: the bain of every coaches existence (even at YMCA 2nd hoop level)

Can I pretend to be Maurice Acker? I'm 5 foot 4!

Catholic league was serious ball man.

I didn't even go to St. John's Vianney. I was a ringer, they brought in from a different district for tryouts.

Played a mean wing on a soft 1-3-1 zone.

bring it on, scoopers! Grab your notebook & prepare to be schooled!

seriously, everyone except WW sounds like they have a serious case of the "oldies" so i may just have a chance

That's why I go to the Helfaer every year on my birthday to see the latest half-step I lost that is almost compensated by my court saavy in setting screens no 18-year-old can handle. I'll be there on the 18th before the DePaul game... with the Warriors logo tattoo on my right shoulder blade.

St. Alphonsus, my story sounds like your story.

Didn't go to St. Al's, was a CCD kid.

And to those hating the Padre Sierra... my team played in an AAU tournament around the area, we being the only "church" team... we did quite well for ourselves, losing in the championship game.

I still play weekly, especially after basketball season (play pickup games with my high school students after school... show them the ropes - usually 3-4 times a week)

In all seriousness I would definitely be in to get a pickup game going consistently somewhere around Milwaukee, been looking for one for a while now.

You from the Greendale, Greenfield, Franklin side of town going to St. Al's? Went to Sacred Heart myself, became St. Martin of Tours after I left. Our b-ball team sucked.

Jimbo and myself used to umpire little kids baseball games. It's essentially the same thing so we will be the special guest referees!

Oh, Notre Dame/Don Bosco ball is where it's at. Representing St. Dom's in Brookfield.

I balled for St. John Vianney...in San Jose, CA!

This would be a cool idea for a fundraiser a la Bo Ellis's golf tourney.

Maybe in honor of Mo Lucas or Hank Raymonds?
