Hoops with Obama

Yea, we know Obama likes to hoop it up.

But what kind of a player is he? I'm dying to know. Is he the selfless type who makes all the players around him better? Is he the whiner, who screams every time he misses a shot? Maybe he's the coach type, the guy who's always critiquing your game. For my part, I hope he's the self-denigrating type, the guy who makes all the hustle plays and makes consistent jumpers but is constantly talking down his game. I don't know, but Barack, if you're out there and you need a fifth, I'll run witch ya.

Touch the Rim

V.T.'s really falling down on the job here. Over two weeks since the last post. He'll blame it on the teaching (don't they understand his real job?)

V.T. experienced a euphoric sensation yesterday: he inadvertently touched the rim while trying to block a shot. It was almost goaltending! It's been four years and several ankle and knee injuries since V.T. touched the rim. But suddenly, he felt it. Almost jammed his finger on it.

V.T. has this recurring dream of floating in the sky towards the rim. He's about to throw down a monster dunk but has to abort the dunk because he's going to break his teeth on the rim.
