OT - Funny stuff

[Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.]

Early 1990's (1992 to be exact): Michigan AAU Girls' 14U Championship game, with about 200 hundred people in attendance (The winner qualifies for the National Championship tournament; actually the Michigan AAU's qualifiying tournament is so large that it qualifies the top three teams, but I digress.) and Team B's HC is starting to get more and more annoying as the game progresses and we have only played about five minutes. I am the T and Team B's PG (she is also Team B's Captain) is dribbling the ball up the court and while she is still in her team's backcourt he starts up again and I tell her that she needs to get her HC under control. Without stopping her dribble she stops and yells to her coach: "Dad! () Shut up, you are embarrasing me." The stands erupts into laughter, B-HC's face turns bright RED, and he doesn't say a word the rest of the game.

And on this Father's Day I somehow still feel sorry for him, .
