<div class="quote_poster">M Two One Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Ah ok, well that's crap. I forget now, have you started at Tulane before the end of year or are you going to next season? Also, how is the college, if you know much about it yet. BTW, did you go to any Bulls games? I mean, you had to of. lol</div>
Nah, I'll start there next semester. I've been down there a few times though, twice for official visits, once for a press deal, and once for an orientation. It's a beautiful campus. It was surprisingly unaffected by Katrina (although some areas of the city are still completely devestated). Out of all the schools I was looking to transfer into, the only school that I thought had a more beautiful campus was Vanderbilt (in Nashville). That campus is just amazing. I actually looked at UC too, but it was way too urban for me. I like that college town atmosphere, yano?
As for the Bulls, nope, never made it to a game. It wasn't that I didn't want to go but rather that I just couldn't score tickets. The NBA's prices are ridiculous these days for decent seats, and sitting in the nosebleeds is no fun. I saw the Illini play Illinois-Chicago in the United Center though, at only a fraction of the cost of a Bulls ticket. Both teams shot horribly, but you've gotta love the atmosphere of collegiate games regardless of how the actual game winds up.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I'm gonna start playing basketball again. Today, I played my first game of basketball in like, 1 year. My shot was completely off, it wasn't even funny, but I got quicker and much stronger. I was able to take it to the hoop for some layups. I'm definetly going to start practicing again though, shooting used to be the strong point of my game, but now it's my weakest. I can't wait for some summer basketball
I worked out a HUGE sweat btw</div>
Whoa, a whole year? I figured just about everyone on here played. How can you be this into basketball and not have the urge to go out and play a game yourself? That would just kill me, sitting here talking about it all day but never actually playing.
To each his own though. I guess if you don't have a court you can go to and play around with some other guys, there's not really much an incentive. I'm living about a block from the local Y at the moment though, so I can just walk down there every day and get in a few hours of basketball (actually just coming from there at the moment). It really clears my mind like nothing else.
And MrJ, Isiah Thomas won't draft another white guy. This is the same guy who said that Larry Legend (the greatest player to ever play the game) would have been considered an average player if he were black.
