What's a GymAlien?

I guess I should tell you all (ha, ha, like anybody really gives a damn) why I use the name GymAlien. Jim Allen - Gym Allen - Gym Alien. Do I really need to say anything more? But I will anyway; I hate the term "Gym Rat" so I came up with Gym Alien to describe my life in the Basketball Gymnasium. I was there most of my free time; nearly every day, for hours. for many years of my life. And if not in a Gym, then on the outside courts, in the park, or school, or at a friends house on the 'over the garage door' hoop. But, I still couldn't shoot worth a darn. Actually I could shoot great with a gun; just not with a basketball...lol

As a 10 year old and for several years I was at the park almost every day playing ping pong, pool and whatever organized sports I could. I played Flag Football, Volleyball, and Basketball. I sucked at basketball. It was the one sport where I had very little success in the beginning. And I wanted to understand why other kids could play Basketball well, but not me! Then I could fix that problem/weakness. I was pretty stubborn. There comes a time when one realizes everything you've learned is a bunch of bull @#$& ! And that's when you find that, there is nothing left to do but Scrap it ALL and Start Over. Ah, but more on what happened from there on in the book.

Yes, I Love Basketball. The Gym was the one place where I felt at Home.
