    My name is Johnny Kilroy and I would really like to play basketball for your team. I used to play a lot in front of my driveway when I was a little kid. We had a Fisher Price Basket and me and my friends would put the hoop level at 6′ feet and just dunk on it all the time. One time I did a 360 dunk on one my friends. We also played a lot of “Knockout” and “21″ on this hoop. I usually dominated at this too. This other time I crossed over my little sister and she fell down, but then she got back up and blocked my shot on the way to laying it up. People tell me I have a cross over thats sicker that John Edwards, and that if I wasn’t a baller I’d be a rapper. I think I’m exactly what your team needs, I have handle like Matt Maloney, and a 3-Point shot like Manute Bol (when he made a record 12 - 3 pointers while on the 76ers). I play defense like Jason Williams of the Heat, and I have a haircut like Chris Mullin. I’m 6′10″ and 273lbs. Let me know what you guys think. And if any of these guys here think they can beat me just comment on this and I’ll pull out the old Fisher Price and we can go at it in my driveway. My mom will even bring us Lemonade and cookies at half time.

    I am a dude that used to play basketball only on a recreaational level. I hear that playing ball at the pro level is the “cool” thing to do now a days, so I decided to send this message to see if I can get picked up. I have no problem moving to Iceland and ballin it up! up there. How much would I get paid?

    I did not play college basll officially, I did however was the first man off the bench (6th man) on my rec. sports team (the exterminators) two times in a row. Give me a call, I would love to hear from you.

    To the coaching staff,

    My name is Barry. I am a 6′8″, 225 lbs forward / center.

    I’m interested in playing in Iceland. After watching some vidz on the Youtube of your competition I believe I would be the best player ever to grace your shores. I’m kind of a big deal. I’m an excitment machine.

    My stats for the last season were 30.3 ppg, 15.2 rpg, 4.6 apg + 8 bpg in the NBA D League where I played for the Arkansas Ant Eaters. I was the best on my team.

    I’ve been working out really hard in Conneticut with my cousin Curtis, you know know him as the famous rapper 50 Cent. He is like my brother. He trains me really hard and I am trying to develop my body to resemble his.

    I’ve got some sweet tattoos on my arms, one is of the famous late 70’s singer Rick James. The other tattoo is of my pitbull Tyson eating my mothers clothes off the clothes line. My cousin thinks they are sweet, but I don’t think they are as good as his. I’d like to get some more to comemorate my stay in your country. My tattoos can be used to market me and the team as the tough team to play that no-ne likes playing cos we’re so tough

    In High School I was selected as a Popeye’s Chicken on 5th and Columbus St. Arkansas All American + also participated in the DADA All American camp. I also gained the Most Liked player in camp and the spirit of the game award as I always play with all of my heart. Always.

    I don’t play basketball for the money. My coach used to take me to Popeye’s Chicken after the game if we won, so i’d play my best and win, because I love fried chicken so much. Will the coach in Iceland take me to Popeye’s after the game if I win too? I can’t eat it before the game though because it gives me hickups and makes me not run fast.

    Please e-mail me back as soon as you can please because I have some offers to play in England, Spain and Russia.

    My e-mail is: sl–5@hotmail.com

    Hi, my name is Robert Davis. i am 23 yrs old and live in greenville, sc. i am 6 feet tall, 170 lbs. and i play the PG/SG. i am very floor aware, defensively minded, and have the ability to knock down shots and run a set offense whether fast paced or half court. shoot around 80% from the FT line and great TO-ASST ratio. i went to southside christian school for high school and won many awards in basketball as well as the other sports i played(soccer, track, and cross-country). i played d2 ball at lees-mcrae college in banner elk, nc for one yr but after my little brother had a heart attack during my season, i returned home to his side and decided to finish school in sc. never got antoher chance to play college ball again b/c the coach at the school i went to didnt allow try-outs for walk-ons. i currently play for the Guyana Men’s National Basketball Team and we recently played in a competition in Puerto Rico that fetured such teams and players as the Bahamas - magnum roll of LSU, Puerto Rico - carlos arroyo(Orlando Magic - NBA) and jose juan berea(Dallas Mavericks - NBA) as well as many other people that play over-seas professionally. i will be playing with the National Team again this summer as well as a team based out of Washington D.C. called the DC Jammers that play games against other nations teams and pro teams such as dominican republic, guyana, trinidad and tobago, and england. i would be very interested in a try-out for any team over-seas and a chance to get a professional career started. i am currently working on getting a try-out in the dominican republic as well. if interested and try-out is possible please email me at rmdavis20@hotmail.com. thanks.

    To the coaching stuff,

    My name is Panagiotis Politsidis and i am a 6′4” 170lbs point guard-shooting guard.

    I ve been playing professional basketball for the past years in Greece A2 (P. Faliro, MENT, Milonas, Papagou, Pagrati) and i m interested in playing abroad. The main reason is that the Greek teams cant promote my ambitions and they face major financial problems as well.

    I m looking forward to play abroad because i ve got a whole lot more to give to the game. I m avery athletic, fast, and minded point guard who can be the leader of the squad, run the team very well and pass the ball very easily.I can also press on full court. As a shooting guard i can play good defence but my strong point, is my scoring ability. I can shoot the ball from long distances and make excellent drives as well. I can inspire passion to the team and to the funs also.

    I have a bachelor degree in sociology so i know how to react rational in various instances. I dont have any attitude problems because i love the game and i like to cooperate with other people.

    Please let me know of your intentions.
    My email is: panagiotisnikpolitsidis@yahoo.com
    Thank you in advance
