So I don't know nothing about football

Last night I learned that ...

• Linebackers are big and slow - not very tall though
• Running Backs are lightning fast
• Deep down inside they all are kinda like the basketball people I grew up with. They have the same team-fun-sport spirit that you can find in any athlete who is serious about their sport, but doesn't forget to have fun.
• They seem to be really nice, fun, down to earth, patient, team people who enjoy a nice game of hoops.

OK, so they are in incredible physical shape and they do not make their money playing Basketball (I have seen better) - but that was the beauty of it.

The game last night was a fund raiser basketball game for the Westwood High School between the High School Booster All Stars and the NE Patriots.
They were not seriously playing - just a relaxed fun game.
Here are the pix:

Partiots playing Basketball

The Pats players who attended were:

• Logan Mankins
• Russ Hochstein
• Laurence Maroney (Height: 5-11 (not much taller then I am) Weight: 220 (of pure muscle - I have never seen anybody sprint this fast.)
• Ellis Hobbs
• Steve Gostkowski

I am really glad I went to see this event. Thanks Adrienne for thnking of me, and for letting me borrow your D200.
