R' Bentzion asks Chasidim not to play volleyball with 'vasse zoken'

During a speech to his Chasidim, R' Bentzion appealed to the oilem not to play volleyball with their vasse zoken. He said that is was unbefitting for yingerleit to exhibit such behavior. He asked the yingerleit to be gelassen and to behave in a way that passes for a Chasidishe yingerman in the upcoming summer months.

Comments:
please advise rbz yhat u need a net and a ball to play volleyball
perhaps he was refering to pocket pool

 

alter bobover ruv ztvk"l said (paraphrasing)

"tumer a biber hit macht a bucher zol nisht kein einmol in theater hut zich zhoyn geloint".

that is borough park chassidic style, thats bobovs clientele. kudos to rb"z.

 

Don't be silly. He said that regarding Melaveh Malka, if he saw yungeleit with "veiser Zukken" playing volleyball on Motzai Shabbos at 2 in the morning, he's sure they could at least find 20-30 minutes to sit down and wash Melaveh Malka.

 

By the way, he really gave a geshmaker shmooz. He mentioned that his father Zt"l was once in the car and was shmoozing about if a driver that drives without following the speed limit and rules, should be possul L'eidus ! (like a gambler in the gemara, because he is gambeling with people's lives !)

 

and r' MD?

 

Does he not have anything more important to worry about?

 

what the heck are "vasse zoken"?
