We're now on a third annual MLK where I meet my buddy and his kids at a High School Basketball tournament at a local arena. It's really a nice set up for the day. 15 bucks for all day access general admission, or 25 if you want floor seats. There's like 5 games, starting at 11am and the last one starting at 7pm. I usually get there for the last two.

You gotta pay to watch HS ball? Are there at least some good prospects?

Even the regular high school games we pay 5 bucks for usually. Maybe less for the kids.
This one is expensive because it's in a privately run arena. They've gotta pay ushers and janitorial services and parking attendants and concession people.
The 25 bucks for the full day of games isn't that big a deal. It's criminal though what they charge you for mediocre concessions though.
I saw Providence's Kris Dunn there the first year we went. Usually you're talking mid major guys coming out of the top Connecticut programs, with the occasional exception. I know Basick HS is the late game tonight and they're one of the top teams in the state. There's a couple other high end programs in there too.

I'd rather just pay a couple of bums to fight to be honest. A Mickey's big mouth is all the concessions I need

Stepping up their game. I guess their last ad campaign didn't produce the results they wanted to see:

On second thought, maybe that's not such a good idea. The AP just announced a black suspect was gunned down at a KFC as a MLK parade passed by.

My office had the day off for whatever reason so I got to kick back and read a good book.

I have the utmost respect for MLK Jr.
All growing up he was ways one of my favorite historical figures.
Wish I had the day off, but I am celebrating by working, and then smoking a ton of weed when I get off and playing a bunch of Madden.

That was a fantastic game, I hope you both remember it for a while. As for me, I've slept in, went to lunch at Chipotle with a girl I like, then watched the Jazz/Hornets game (wasn't disappointed), then played ball and got hit in the face pretty hard (now I've got a black eye). I then watched some of the Cavs game and when I saw they were down 30 and that the NBA forum has gone to hell I fled to the OTC and to a friend's apartment to watch "the Bachelor" which will be immediately followed by me finishing my Spanish homework and then going to see "13 Hours" with my roommate. That's about it

I believe he is one of the most iconic and favorites because we grew up with him being forced in our minds as kids. Him & Gandhi, but those two are top 5 dead or alive historical figures fam

Have you seen how well-developed HS girls have become? I'd say the answer to your question is yes.

It was frustrating that we played no defense (except for Marvin Williams) and let a 15 point lead slip away but it was nice to see Kemba drop 52 and set a new franchise record. My daughter got a pic of MJ and texted it to all her friends. It's amazing how famous he still is after all these years.

Great game.
Nephew asked me for 20 bucks to get a game the weekend when he stayed with me. I asked what game bc his mom bitched me out for buying him GTAV. She was probably right on that one, he's only 11 :lol Anyway he shows me this game, and we played together some. I give him money to buy characters. Turns out he wanted to buy rollerskates Nova .... bc he's 11, and yeah
It's fun but I don't step into the real matches. Too scared of my sux. I like to play bots.

99% of the players with that skin are garbage, which is surprising considering how incredibly easy she is to play. :oldlol:
If you're still getting used to it, play a few matches vs bots at the highest difficulty and if you do well, you can definitely handle quick match. Your opponents are roughly matched to your skill level so it's not like you'll be playing against anyone great at first.
