Somewhat OT - saw my grandson in the bleachers on TV
Yesterday, I watched the woman's Seattle Pacific - Alaska Fairbanks game on cable here in Portland. I did it mainly because I have a grandson who attends Seattle Pacific, the game was in Seattle and he told me he was going to be there. I saw him in the stands about 5 or 6 times during the game. That was really cool.

On a side note, the color commentator kept referring to layups as "bunnies". I've never heard that before. Oh yeah, twice he called flopping on screens as "scratch and sniff".

My dad used to use that word all the time when referring to open lay-ups.

That's better than seeing him on an episode of Cops without his shirt on.

I've never heard that term...must be either regional or generational.

So...if you take a 3-pointer, it's a hippopotamus?

... and dogs barking. There're always barking dogs. And tattoos, lots of tattoos.
