OT - basketballs are too noisy?

And playing basketball does not steal from your house or rob your car either.

I agree with the person in the article that said they should move to a rural area where they will not have to worry about neighbors.

"Mary and Bruce Swanson, in a statement from their attorney - who is charging them $200/hr - said the his clients DID move from their rural Hickory IN home to the Suburbs to escape just this kind of public nusance"

Today's paper had a follow up story on this. Apparently, the neighbors are so frustrated with the kids shooting hoops they've decided to sell their house and move away. They said that if it doesn't sell, they would consider suing the kids' parents for "harassment".

I can just see them asking a realtor to take this listing:

"We want to sell our house".
"Why do you want to sell?"
"Our neighbors make too much noise."
"Yeah, I'll get right on that."

Sounds like the sensible solution is to challenge them to a game of HORSE.
