I honestly don't get the attraction of either one of them. Breasts artificially enhanced to the size (and firmness) of basketballs get me about as excited as thumbtacks. Ain't nothing wrong with the real thing, baby.

Oho, I had a cool basketball moment last night. I went downtown to the Taste of Chicago, an annual event where a few dozen local restaurants set up booths between Grant Park and Millennium Park. One of the annual exhibitors is a U.S. Army recruiting station, with a chance to take three basketball shots as the draw. Not free throws, more like 3 point land, 20 feet plus. In Chicago, one of the true basketball hotbeds, you can imagine how long the line was. The guys running that part of the operation were making anyone who shot an air ball do 10 pushups, and there were plenty of those. At the time I was there the line basically consisted of a lot of young black guys and me. I was getting some glances -- "What's Mr. Old White Dude doing here?" I guess I haven't completely forgotten how because my first two shots were nothing but net. The third one wasn't quite as deft, it used every inch of the rim, but it fell in. Some of the looks changed to, "Wow, you never know!" LOL

Would you believe I am excited about the Bulls' chances next season? It's been a while. First they steal Tyrus Thomas in the draft, then they sign Ben Wallace away from the Pistons. Maybe I'm nuts but I think they are legitimate candidates to make the finals. John Paxson and Scott Skiles have assembled a team of blue collar guys who play hard and are out there to win. (They just traded away the last guy who didn't really fit that mold). You heard it here first!
