The WNBA is getting to be just an overload of "other stuff". Its starting to become an afterthought for me after I had bought in. Not enough basketball talk for me too much OTHER STUFF. @WNBA #womensbasketball#hoops#ballers
Barack: You told me all those years ago that you couldn’t promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. Of course, you outdid yourself and managed to give me both.
Eight years in the crucible, and not once did you melt from the heat. Not once did you let it harden you. Instead, you used it to reveal your truest essence: your stubborn optimism and unflinching courage, your dazzling brilliance and unpretentious decency, your ferocious work ethic and absolutely unshakable moral fiber.
@SportsCenter Majority of athletes or great ANYTHING have their father or a father figure in their lives to thank. Fathers are the most essential part of someone becoming successful.
@MyBCSN1@JaguarHoops@CarlosBrownShow Its literally 100 gyms within 10miles of Gateway arena in Atlanta (high schools, colleges, rec centers, private gyms etc). No reason a college program should have to drive 1hr away for a practice / walk thru.. simple networking can fix that.
All the girls(basketball) have made a mass exit out of Hebron (for whatever reason) and damn near everybody in gwinett co have transfer to Gainesville. Id love to see the great Coach Jan coach with zone girls #ghsa#girlsbball @KyleSandy355
Unpopular opinion…
AAU doesn’t need to lead to college basketball to be worth it.
For a lot of players today, it’s simply part of becoming competitive enough to play varsity basketball.
Not every player is chasing a Division I scholarship. Some are chasing a varsity roster spot. Some want to make the rotation. Some want to help their high school team win. Some just love the game.
And that’s enough!
I think we’ve become too obsessed with using college basketball as the scoreboard for whether a player’s journey was worth it.
What if they never play another organized game after high school?
If they loved the practices… loved the tournaments… loved the road trips… loved the teammates… loved competing…
Wasn’t that valuable too?
Not every basketball journey has to end with a scholarship to be a success.
Sometimes success is simply getting better, building friendships, making memories, learning life lessons, and squeezing EVERY DROP out of a game you love.
If you’re playing on Court 1 or Court 37, play hard.
The love of the game doesn’t care what division you’re headed to.

High school students attending home games should have free entry to their home school. I believe its a better atmosphere to have 100-200 students at home games than only 10 parents in the stands.
$16 per person to attend a HS baseball playoff game. Then we wonder why kids don’t attend - the association has priced kids and families out of going to these games ! HS kids should never pay more than $5 for any event at their HS and they should NOT have to use a stupid APP!
