Anybody have any experience with attaching a basketball goal to the side of the house?
The house is brick and I need to know the best way to secure it a la what screws/brackets to use. I already have the mounting bracket....just need the hardware. Thanks!
Whatever you do, don't skimp on the hardware. You want something that will be able to hold the weight, handle alot of vibration and impact.
There is a lead insert anchor that uses a lag bolt to fix heavy items to brick. Use the maximum size that the holes in the b ball goal will allow.
These should not be drilled into the mortar but directly into the brick. You will need a mortar drill bit and preferably a drill with hammer action.
Go here and look at the lag screw shield
http://www.fastenersplusinc.com/anchors/anchors.html
You just drill the correct size hole, push in the anchor and install the lag bolt.
Stay away from any type of steel expansion anchor since they are NOT designed to handle vibration.
Good luck to you.

Basketball
Basketball is a sport played between two teams normally consisting of five or more players. Each team has five players on the basketball court at any given time. The objective is to score more points than the other team, with points being scored by shooting a ball through a basketball hoop (or basket), which is located ten feet above the ground. The two teams shoot at opposite goals. In order to move while in possession of the ball, a player must be dribbling, or bouncing the ball.
The number of points awarded a player for successfully shooting the ball through his team's goal varies according to the circumstance. The most common scenario is the two-point play, wherein a player scores two points for making a basket anywhere inside the "3-point line" while the ball is in play. A semicircular line (the three-point line) marks the area beyond which, if a player makes a basket, three points are awarded for the shot. One point is given to a player upon successfully making a free throw, or a foul shot.
During play, referees monitor the game and call fouls, which result from a player illegally interfering with another during the game. For instance, if someone pushes a player on the other team while he is taking a shot, a foul is called. In this situation, the shooter is allowed to shoot two free-throws from the foul line while being unguarded. Some examples of fouls that can be called in basketball are:
Besides fouls, players can also be punished for other violations of the rules of basketball, such as traveling, which occurs when a player moves more than one step with the ball without dribbling or shooting. Such violations result in a turnover, wherein the ball is given to the other team.
Defensively, there are a few ways in which a team can gain possession of the basketball in order to score. Offensive fouls (such as charging) result in the defensive team being awarded the ball. Unforced turnovers, such as when the offensive team travels or throws the ball out of bounds, also result in the defensive team being given the ball. If the offense misses a shot, and the defense rebounds the missed shot, the defensive team then becomes the offense. Also, the defense may steal (without fouling) the ball from the offense.

How do you determine how much paint you would need to paint a border around a basketball court?
The basketball court is 74' X 42' with a 2' border around it. The paint costs $10.96 per quart with a quart covering up to 100 sq ft. How much paint (in quarts) do you need for this?
The outside rectangle has an area of 78' x 46' = 3588 ft^2.
The inside rectangle has an area of 74' x 42' = 3108 ft^2.
The painted area is the difference: 480 ft^2.
You will need to buy 5 quarts to cover 480 ft^2.
The total cost (even though you didn't ask for it) would be 5 x $10.96 = $54.80.

It's not quite the stunner that Zinedane Zidane delivered in the 2006 World Cup, but Jozy Altidore now has a regrettable headbutt on his record. Altidore ensured that he would miss the end of Hull City's season by responding to Sunderland defender Alan Hutton throwing the ball at him after a contentious challenge with a shove and a headbutt, actions that earned him a straight red card and a three-game ban.
Since Hull City only has two games remaining, that means Altidore's done for the year, and maybe for his Premier League career. Hull City sits third from the bottom of the table, and would need two losses by West Ham and more than a 20-goal swing in goal differential to avoid relegation. And the Tigers probably won't be too keen on bringing back a forward with as many violent conduct ejections as Premier League goals.
They're not the only team that might suddenly be worried about Altidore. The U.S. national team will already be without Charlie Davies in South Africa. It could ill afford to lose another talented striker, and must hope this was a spectacular and singular lapse in judgment for Altidore.
