What Is BonesBall?

BonesBall is not your ordinary sports website.  We bring an educated perspective to sports issues and topics.  Our objective is to show how sports can be a metaphor for life.  The lessons we learn from the court or field can teach and inspire us in our day to day lives.  As BonesBallers we view the world differently than the average Joe; we do not accept what we hear but what we have come to know through our experiences and failures.

BUT…

as an educated youthful group we do enjoy the art of humor and entertainment.  Part of education is relaxation and goofin’ off, so we do provide the goods.  We know that lectures and studying can become torturous which is why we encourage your support when in class.

As you can see we are a fusion of the two halves of the college student … intelligent and fun-loving.


WHAT DOES ‘BONESBALL’ MEAN?
Bones = our skull, our brain, our head, our thoughts
Ball = the competition, the sport, the game

Bonesball is …

BonesBall is the game of life played in the mind, where standard definitions of right and wrong and the traditional oppositional ‘them against us’ mentalities are understood as inadequate to serve the moral issues of the day.
It’s the BonesBallers in every walk of life, with their unbridled need to succeed, who are everywhere adjusting the scales of judgment, playing a day-by-day, moment to moment game of life to become heroes, sometimes in the world but more often, in their own souls.
