Recently had a close call while playing basketball the other day.
Scrawny dude who nobody likes and gets upset anytime you play physical with him got in my face and started talking **** about how he was going to "rock my world" and saying personal **** about my ex gf. I just laughed it off and kept it moving.
Right call, or should I have taught the dude a lesson? My issue is I just graduated college and started working full-time at the hospital that my mom has worked at for over 10 years. I have a good relationship with the CEO and other higher ups and my mom is well respected throughout the whole hospital. If I knock this dude out and break his nose/jaw he's obviously going to the local hospital that I happen to be employed at. Meanwhile this dude has absolutely nothing going for him...27 and sells drugs, smokes weed and plays video games all day, works part time at some warehouse, owes a ton of people money including his own roommate that was out there, never had a girlfriend and treats every pickup and rec league game like it's the NBA Finals. If I embarass him in front of his only group of "friends" and he has to go to the hospital to get his busted up face fixed they're going to start asking questions and I'm not trying to have my name involved with any of that.
What would you guys have done in this situation? I'll be seeing this dude again soon, as he plays fairly often at a couple gyms I play pickup at.
