6 mile comfort plod in the neighborhood.  Busy day yesterday, pretty much gone all day with activities, including back-to-back basketball games for my oldest daughter, but the season is now over.  This was a 4-days-a-week commitment, so we're all a bit relieved...even my mini-hoopster!

4 days a week is a lot... even at his peak, Allen Iverson didn't even play/practice that much!

Did they have to let her play on the team because she's white? Thank goodness for equality.

I can relate to this. Your kids think ypu're smiling with pride at their hard work, but you are smiling with relief at the end of the season. The illusion is solid, and everyone's happy. Win win.

Burt - the long struggles of our people have finally paid off

Tom - hah! Yes, that's a great summary.
