Just my opinion, no offense to the guys that enjoy it. I just find the modern game unwatchable.

 

Basketball is much different in person than it is on TV.

If all you've ever gone to see was a globetrotters game then you haven't been to a real BB game.

 

Argh! Step son needs to stay at hospital for at least another day as the swelling behind his ear hasn't subsided enough.

My buddy is doing better, thanks.

 

Don't watch as much as I used to, or play as much as I used to. Growing up sucks, but I do enjoy a game when I can. I grew up in the city and my high school years I was a 2 minute walk from a park with a court where the competition was incredible. It was a combination of my high school players and others from around the neighborhood. I was the only white guy, I may hold the record for number of times a white man was called the N word. Played with Kareem Washington, who ended up going to Loyola Maramount and his team went to the big dance twice. So there's my basketball claim to fame.

 

and that's when Mich State usually gets fired up too ... Go Spartans!!

 

Now you sound like my boss, aren't you closer to Ann Arbor?

 

Dear Abby,

My husband has a long record of money problems. He runs up huge credit
card bills and at the end of the month, if I try to pay them off, he
shouts at me, saying I am stealing his money. He says pay the minimum
and let our kids worry about the rest, but already we can hardly keep
up with the interest. Also he has been so arrogant and abusive towards
our neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us. The few that do
are an odd bunch to whom he has been giving a lot of expensive gifts,
running up our bills even more. Also, he has gotten religious. One
week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with people who say the
Pope is the Anti-Christ, and the next he's on his knees 7 times a day
with Muslims. Finally, the last straw. He's demanding that before
anyone can be in the same room with him, they must sign a loyalty
oath. It's just so horribly creepy! Can you help?


Signed,
Lost

Dear Lost,

Suck it up and stop whining, Michelle. You're getting to live in the
White House for free, travel the world, and have others pay for everything
for you. You can divorce the jerk any time you want. The rest of us
are stuck with the idiot for 2 more years.

Signed, Abby

 

Shhhhhhhhh

 

Where's Kenwood .... Uh yup!!
