I am publicly announcing that from this day on Lawrence, Kansas is my American city, I am supporting all of their sports franchises and any Lawrencian is now my friend
The people who make it an advantage have less access to go to games than ever before. Deep NBA Playoffs/NBA Finals have become Super Bowl’d. Soulless corporate gatherings rather than a sanctuary for fans.
