Margherite , like Jimmy Durante , you have a million of them . - ray76, Dec 9, 2013

Thanks R C these make my day , please keep them coming to sharpen our wits. - ray76, Dec 9, 2013

Thanks Ray. Most merit goes to Margherite's pics. :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

@Ray...I have a million whats?? - 0095ca4c, Dec 10, 2013

Answer 1

It must be one of the Milwaukee Bucks

Debe ser uno de los Bucks de Milwaukee

hahaha...very very witty elwombato. - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Even I get it, not being a follower, clever. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Very good. Also: "Debe de ser" - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Congratulations Lewombato - pmikan-pam, Dec 12, 2013

Answer 2

Gandulea con la pelota y recíbo el cuerno. You mess with the ball and you get the horn.

And be on the horns of a dilemma. - ray76, Dec 9, 2013

or, just go away.. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

"Gandulear" means 'to idle' or 'to loaf around'. Besides that, this is a set phrase and it's hard to make a short, concise translation. Maybe: "Si juegas con la pelota/bola, te llevas el cuerno." Un saludo. - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Wow...great thinking! - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 3

Watch out my deer friends, I'm going to rack one up!

¡Tengan cuidado mis amigos ciervos, voy a marcar un gol!

Neat. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Nice play on words. You go girl, I like to do that, you got one up on me. Jeje - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

Hi Margherite. I would say just: "Voy a marcar uno." Not a 'gol' because that looks like a basketball and you don't 'marcas goles' in basketball. :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 10, 2013

Answer 4

El tipo que me dio la pelota dijo que su nombre es "Guillermo Tell"

yo no estoy tan seguro ahora .

The guy who gave me the ball said his name is "William Tell " I am not so sure now.

Clever! - heliotropeman, Dec 9, 2013

Thanks mate , how you been going ? - ray76, Dec 9, 2013

Not bad, ray, not bad. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Very good Ray! :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

I hope he likes music! :-) - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 5

¡Últimas noticias! ¡Los animales agarran la fiebre de los deportes!

Breaking news! The animals catch the sports fever!

:-) - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Lol. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Very good! I would say: "fiebre de los deportes." Otherwise perfect. - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Gracias, RC. - Raja-jani, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 6

Now I just have to run to the line and jump over those guys with the helmets, right?

Ahora sólo tengo que correr hasta la línea y saltar por encima de esos tipos con los cascos, ¿verdad? ?

Helmets? - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Crash helmets - poor little dears have to protect their heads :) - ian-hill, Dec 9, 2013

Very good. Just "correr hasta la línea". Un saludo Ian. :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Gracias amigo - ian-hill, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 7

el ciervo de Miley Cyrus: I'm wrecking the ball.

Miley Cyrus' deer: Estoy destrozando la pelota

Jajaja! :D - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

:-) - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Hi Aran, basketball a game played by two teams of usually five players each on a rectangular court having a raised basket or goal at each end, points being scored by tossing the ball through the opponent's basket - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

Holaa Aran - pmikan-pam, Dec 13, 2013

Answer 8

Another penalty for travelling. I never will understand this game.

Otro castigo para por ir andando. Nunca entenderé este juego.

That was my complaint. If you want me to get there fast, I have to carry the ball! - 0095ca4c, Dec 10, 2013

I would say "Otra falta" or "Otro castigo" + "por ir andando" or "por andar" Un saludo! - RelaxingCup, Dec 10, 2013

Answer 9

Este es el juego del huevo y la cuchara al nivel olímpico.

This is the egg and spoon-race, at Olympic level.

Perfect! You also could have written "el huevo y la cuchara" and "a nivel olímpico". Un saludo! - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

The stable version of the spoon. - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Yep. Works better! - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Gracias, Relaxing. - annierats, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 10

¡Te dije que no podrías hacerte con podía conseguir conseguir el baloncesto! ¡Mis equilibrados movimientos son demasiado rápido para usted rápidos para tí!

I told you (that) you couldn´t get the basketball! My balanced moves are just too quick for you!

Did I used the double ¨you¨ correctly here? - bandit51jd, Dec 8, 2013

I think you just scored! - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

'I told you (that)' = "Te dije que". 'you couldn't get' = "no podrías conseguir". + "Mis equilibrados movimientos son demasiado rápidos para tí." - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Aso: "hacerte con" (gain) instead of "conseguir". "Movimientos" is masculine and plural so you have to use "equilibrados" and "rápidos", both adjectives. "Demasiado" stays singular - it's an adverb. I used "ti" at the end because you wrote "Te dije" :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

I sent you a PM, RC! I wasn't quite sure about "hacerte con". Again, thanks! - bandit51jd, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 11

I'm shooting from a three point. Estoy lanzando desde la línea de tres.

For basketball we say: "triple" (canasta de tres puntos). In basketball context I would use "tirar" for 'to shoot'. My suggestion: "Estoy lanzando desde la línea de tres." (from the three-point line). - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Sorry for changing your sentence so much. Maybe I misunderstood your original intention. Let me know if that's the case. Un saludo. - RelaxingCup, Dec 9, 2013

Thanks RC you help me more t han you know. - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

I didn't know how to say this cheeky statement going for 3 point buck and 3 point line. - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

jajaja...awesome amiga! You obviously know more about basketball that I do. :) - 0095ca4c, Dec 9, 2013

Thank you amiga, thank you for the great pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!! - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

what is basketball? - Aranjuez12, Dec 9, 2013

Aran, let me see jeje - pmikan-pam, Dec 9, 2013

Answer 12

What? Do I have food on my face?

¿Qué? ¿Tengo comida en la cara?

Very good :D - RelaxingCup, Dec 11, 2013
