This post will start out with a classic pic of Duke's wonderboy JJ Reddick caught in an unfortunate situation. Word on the street is that he later ate the prize for which he was digging. It has not been confirmed, however. The title to this post is a play on the title from a classic Patsy Cline song which was later remade into an underrated but classic version by Trisha Yearwood's boy toy, Garth Brooks. As I type this I am sitting cold and alone at 1 in the morning trying to catch my breath. My wife, daughter, and my adopted negro son have fallen asleep and my third shift butt isn't sleepy at all. I have been sitting on the deck by our new fire pit smoking a cigar and trying to keep a fire lit in the pit. The smoke from the pit and the cigar have thrown me into a near asthma attack. Keep me in your prayers. As I sat on the deck exchanging text messages with soccer legend Grant Sharp it hit me that the blog readers of the world might be interested in what went down last weekend at Bremen Elementary Gym. So I have decided to tell you, not only because I know you're curious, but because I think my left lung was about to collapse.
Last Sunday we started what we hope will be a weekly roundball classic at Bremen Gym. We had many legends on hand for what was sure to be a memorable basketball game. The teams got chosen and I was sad to learn that I would be playing against my future brother-in-law Mr. Sharp. What made this even worse is that I was assigned to guard "Stretch". So, like a midget at a urinal, I knew I would have to be on my toes. The one thing I had going for me was that I had Bunch on my team and Kendall on the other team. Bunch always gets the best of "The Git". Late in the game, once we were all begging for oxygen, Bunch and Kendall had a classic battle with both raining threes from all over the court. Some of Kendall's were shot from Vinson Auto Sales, all the way in Sac town. What I originally thought would be a battle of Tom Vinson patented turnarounds and Brian Bullock shot fakes, had turned into a three point battle between Bunch and Kendall. Although I think Bunch made more shots, the Louisville Cards team of Kendall, Grant, Joe Vincent, Parker Scarbro, and Bob Gas took the victory. Personally, I think the refs screwed us. Revenge will be sought this Sunday on pay-per-view. Call your local cable or satellite provider. That's all for now.
