Back in the 90's, I worked for SYEP (summer youth employment program). I was a youth monitor at my former middle school.

Me and my boys all worked together and we'd basically watch 10-12 year olds, I was 15 at the time. Anyway, this Puerto Rican youngin named Peter James Ramos was like 12 years old and 6'5 :dwillhuh:

He was garbage :huhldup: then and he's been garbage since. But we used to stay swattin this little big ass n1gga's shyt all day. He had two left-feet and he was uncoordinated as fukk!

To make matters even more freakish....homey had a twin sister!!! B1tch was like 6'2...when they used to walk together at camp everyone would be like :whoa:

He grew to be 7'3, got drafted by the Wizards in the 2nd round, played 6 games before they sent his ass back down the to D-Leagues. He stayed at the D-League for three years without much improvement, which is when the Wizards dropped him and he bounced to PR to play pro ball there.


Edit: oh, me and my boys did not give him a choice as to whether he played or not.

Not a fan of that clown. He used to work out at the Y that I frequented. Bum used to kick kids off the court so he could practice his bogus ass hook shot.

:heh: @ every 7 footer in America coming in contact w/ a coli poster

As far as running into 7 footers that play ball, that's not a surprise. I went to college with Jerome James, worked out at the same gym with PJ Ramos, and saw Robert Parish a few times because he lived near my job.

But random 7 footers that didn't/don't play ball? That's a rare occurence.

I remember when I was in elementary school, we had a janitor (white dude) who was damn near close to 7ft. What a waste of height.

People don't even realize in actuality how impressive it is to be that height and even have enough mobility/balance/coordination to play sports.

Mufukkas out here talking about "If I was such-and-such height, I'd be in the league dominating" when they're 5'8" and can't even run a mile in under ten minutes and shyt.

You're absolutely right.
