my son works on his basketball game 5 days a week at the gym. Being 9 he really had to earn time in pickup games, but sense then he rarely runs into anyone that treats him for anything other than a ball player. Today on the other hand my son ran into a high school kid who wouldn't allow him any run. Finally the kid said if Q hit 5 of 8 three pointers he could play. Q countered by saying if he made 5 of 8 the high school had to sit out and give Q his jayhawk jersey he was sporting. On the 8th shot Q was sitting at 4 makes, he needed the last shot. He proceeded to make the shot with the high school kid yelling "MISS!!!" before he released the ball. I wouldn't be telling this story if he missed, so after he made it Q demanded the jersey. The high school kid was reluctant but felt peer pressure from all the others in the gym. Once he handed the jersey over, Q walked over to the trash and put that piece of garbage where it belongs. The gym went crazy. Today was a good day.
