I once officiated a game on an outdoor court. It had a tree-point line.

Maybe you just need to act like a tree, and leaf.

Or put an egg in your shoe, and beat it.

Perhaps you should act like a hockey player and get the puck outta here.

(Dang it! It's like quicksand - it just sucks you in...)

Or as Young Biff says in Back To The Future, Part 2, "Why don't you make like a tree, [dramatic pause] and get outta here."

At which point, Old Biff smacks Young Biff on the head and says, "Leave! It's make like a tree and leave, you idiot!"

I thought that was one of the better lines in the movie.

My kids didn't get it, though.

...sigh...I guess I didn't raise them right.

Well, I read the first 10 posts with puns (posts #5 and #12 do not contain a pun) hoping that one of them would tickle my funny bone. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.

In FIBA, what do you call taking care of the prison? Gaol tending.

Extra points for that one, Bob, although you misspelled FEEBLE.

If one of the NBA's Nets changes his shirt at halftime, is he then wearing a New Jersey new jersey?
