So I Met This Girl....

<div class="IPBDescription">Then I met her 5 brothers....</div> When I went to visit this girl at her house I was greeted by five of her older brothers..... They interviewed me for a couple of minutes then decided we we're hungry so we ate dinner. After we finished eating, the girl told them that I was a into basketball. So were they. Next weekend I have a date with these guys to play a 5 on 5 game, they told me to bring 4 other guys.

Now the dilemma. As you guys might already know, most of my friends in my neighborhood are varsity players. I could pick any 4 guys and own them any day of the week. Should I pick friends from school that suck at basketball so as not to offend her brothers?

    You know, for a second I thought this was some kind of transvestite thread. That typo is very misleading.

    Anyway, to answer the question, I'd vote for maybe a mix of guys? A couple of varsity players and a couple guys who are decent, maybe... although I don't know if that would work. Wiping the floor with them would only be bad if you talked a lot of trash about it, though.

    just get the best mates ya got. play it out on a proper war, like a clan war..

    seriously they should be happy to have such a great challenging match if you win..

    then again how old are they. if theyre younger then they might chuck a waffle

    Get the best out of the bunch, then try to play as much as you can with them before your game with those guys <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I agree Gadzuko, the title is very misleading. Will a mod/admin kindly correct the typo? Thanks in advance.

    We're talking about the topic title. Thread-starters can't edit them, so they need a mod to edit them.

    And in this case, yes it needs a bit off attention. ATM the title looks real weird....'met a girl....met <b>his</b> brothers'?

    Yeesh whatever happened to playing a game for <i>FUN</i>?

    Maybe I'm oldschool but I think having Fun with them would be better then wiping the floor with them. It establishes a better relationship and all.

    Too many raging hormones I think...

    Oh god, I've turned into MonsE

    I think you should be upfront with one/all of the brothers and say that your guys are very good - would they prefer some mixed up teams games. If they say not, then crush them.

    By being direct by saying that your team are very good and saying baout mixed teams you are a/. justifying a crushing win if teams remain the same b/. being sporting by offering an even game.

    The brothers can choose to accept your offer or decline. Either way I am sure you will all be able to laugh about the result afterwards.

    Ok, first off, if your BOTH in a Varsity neighborhood, just get the Varsity guys. Basically, get anything in the neighborhood. Otherwise- whatever. I doubt she'll care either way.

    And as said- don't make them feel bad, make them feel "I know this guy that kicks *** at basketball!"
  • MulletMullet Join Date: 2003-04-28 Member: 15910Members, Constellation
    I say find the best players so you can kick some arse!
  • BogglesteinskyBogglesteinsky Join Date: 2002-12-24 Member: 11488Members
    do you know how good they are a basketball? If they are good, you might need some varsity guys just to stand a chance against them.

    Homer make the game interesting!
    Get 4 other ringers and ask the 5 brothers to play for Souls!

  • ClashenClashen Join Date: 2003-08-22 Member: 20087Members
    I say get 4 of your bext friends, play a good game.

    If you win say "GG"
    If you lose blame it on your bounce-arm and say "HAX".
  • GeminosityGeminosity :3 Join Date: 2003-09-08 Member: 20667Members
    take them on in an epic, violent struggle of thumb-wars or a pillow fight instead ^^
  • ForlornForlorn Join Date: 2002-11-01 Member: 2634Banned
    Seriously, the answer is this:

    Get your varistiy friends to play with you


    But tell your friends to go easy and have 'fun' with them.


    That is the best and most controllable way to have fun, win, not offend the brothers and get the girl.

    Mission accomplished
  • dr_ddr_d Join Date: 2003-03-28 Member: 14979Members
    We don't have enough information to give you the best advice. Are these brothers competetive, does the sister like them, hate them, are they **** are they nice, would the sister rather see you win to them or lose to them?


    My advice is find some hockey players and then beat the crap out of them instead, charms the ladies every time.

    Yep, i'm in perfect agreement with Forlorn.

    Also sportsmanship is key. The only way you can screw it up is to be unsportsmanlike if you win. So just be a good sport about it and tell them they played well.
