    I don't play anymore, but when I did, I played at the Flatiron Athletic Club in Boulder.

    No way! I've been told by my friend Amy that, "I suck with balls". Don't ask

    That's pretty much what got me skiing and riding bikes. My friends back east were talking one time about how I was a decent skier, and my one buddy confronted me about it and was like, "dude, these guys said you are this talented skier, and I just don't get it - you can't catch a fucking cold!?!?!"

    Why don't you sack up and play squash instead? The raquet isn't the size of a tennis raquet, the ball isn't the size of a baby's fist, and spazzing the ball off the ceiling doesn't count as "in".

    Because racquetball is a lot more fun. Squash sucks.

    Plus its really loud when you hit that stupid metal board at the bottom of the wall.

    i used to play squash at gym her in evergreen and it was fun, but it was alot cheeper to switch gyms and not worth it to stay for the squash

    Yeah, that's pretty much all I got. I"ve never played squash, but I like r-ball enough not to switch. So there you go.

    I've played squash quite a bit at CU's Rec Center. I know they have some sweet squash/raquetball courts there, and no shortage of beautiful women doing cardio.
