Build Your Own Philosophy, Period 2, 3/29/10
The class would find a note on the usual classroom door asking them to meet outside on the basketball court. When they got there, they'd find Tyler in workout clothes and bouncing a basketball. He was cheerfully ignoring any lingering drizzle.
"I figured we all needed some time with fresh air with no monsters around," he said. "So today, this is gym class and we're playing basketball. This group" -- gesture to about half the students -- "is the red team, and the rest of you are blue."
"If you don't know how to play, you want to put the ball through the hoop. The people on the other team don't want to let you. You can't just carry the ball, you have to pass to a teammate or dribble, like this." He demonstrated, and explained a few other rules as he did.
"If you don't like team sports or you're still healing up, sit on the sidelines and find another way to keep busy for the rest of the hour. Or just breathe."
He was into the breathing part, yeah.

Play Basketball [3/29]
Re: Play Basketball [3/29]
Priestly shrugged and grabbed a ball to shoot some hoops on his own. He wasn't as good at basketball as he was at football, but he was definitely better at this than he was at beating up monkeyponies.
