Hey it's like watching the old NBA again. Maybe the rise of the Bulls is next. Anyway, who do you think is going to win and in how many games. Boston won the season series 2-0. Doesn't mean a thing now though. Any word on Bynum , whether he will be back or not?

too bad they lost two. Could have been interesting underdog story.

so how did it go?

I stopped by yesterday and it seemed to go o.k. I think Mt. View was the only TEAM there. They were the only ones with team gear to be noticed. Of course Princeton had a large group there. Other than that, I didn't see a whole lot of noticeable faces from area teams. There was some good athletic kids there. a lot of younger ones too. Anyway, they did lots of skills by position early in the week, combined positions for drills as the week went on and did some 7 on 7 at the end of yesterday for some fun.

traded it in.

If you have coached kids before....please stand up! As early as middle school? If you have ever worked with kids, you know it's a huge challeng. Sometimes sports is their only outlet for lots of things. You would know that you cannot control their prior lives, but you can control thier future in some aspect. You would also learn to appreciate what this man has done for many men who had little hope or futures without basketball and Bob Huggins. Go ahead and knock him. I am sure we can find tons of things wrong with a lot of coaches. Sure Huggins doesn't have a high grad rate. I really think that has to do with the number of kids he has recruited that has tons of talent yet little guidance growing up. How do you tell a kid who grew up dodging bullets and had nothing to not go pro when the chance is there? I grew up and didn't need things and I would go for the money if it was there. Most people would. If anything, Huggins has taken people that would have been gang members or someone who would have been a boil on the ass of society and made them into men. People who will work for a living. People who appreciate what has been given to them. People who give back to their communities. Maybe these kids have questionable characters coming in, but the question is, do they change while being around Huggs? It seems that is the case. If so, then he is doing his job there and doing a hell of a job doing it.

Hey I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy for sale. It has 60,000 miles on it. The majority of them have come on the interstate to and from work. Let me know if you are interested. Price is negotiable.
