Agree. If you're going to retrieve the ball, then you might as well hang around and watch the post game handshakes as well.

BillyMac,

Thank you for your apologies to all of us in MA. I guess if there is a good thing about having to stay for the handshake it's that we don't have to worry about whether to return the ball to the table or not. I mean might as well since we have to hang around for the dog and pony show.

When I'm R, I have whomever is closest to the ball scoop it up, take it to the locker room, then I take it home with me. I have a nice collection of hundreds of new basketballs in my rec room, each a memory of the game from which I heisted it. Gonna have to build another rec room pretty soon, since the walls are just about filled up.
Not really.
But frankly, I think BillyMac and Mark Padgett have been doing this all along. At their ages, they've probably got about a thousand or two each!

My nomination for Post O' The Week.

Wait a minute? There's a Freddy who's always selling basketballs on Ebay. Could it be?
