I guess it is time to hit the treadmill...

Hey, the out of bounds , you as lead............no stop clock signal!!!;)

Nice crowd, should be fun to watch whole game.

Not much on the last foul call under the basket....... we're a little rougher in the Chicago area!

You guys looked good!

Stripes, which one of the cheerleaders were you? BTW - I had a little trouble watching the video. Every time one of the officials came on camera, there was some kind of reflection. :p

Thanks for the kind words. Somehow I lost that stop clock signal...I gotta find it.

I'm tossing the ball and I am the last one off the court at the end...and on the clip several times in between.

I dunno, stripes. Looks like you called an OOB without giving the raised hand first. There are those on this board who might advocate 50 lashes with a wet noodle for that one.

That is what they have been talking about - the stop clock signal. If that is the smallest thing to talk about everything is good. But who am I to talk since I don't remember the last time I used it either. :D

You guys had a lot of "And 1s" in that clip. Your partner took a call to the table where you had a whistle at C and it was your call. I'm glad to know that happens other places too.

If it is the biggest thing to talk about, then everything is good. But if it's the smallest, then you're saying that there are other bigger things that need fixing.

Personally, I could care less. :)

So this was a joke. Cause the guy tossing the ball is rail-thin!

If it makes you feel better, I think I last used that signal in 1998. That was the last time I lived in a place where someone actually cared about it.

You are still in this table as having a "healthy weight."

To me the camera must've taken off 20 pounds, then! I need to find that camera!
