a 'little' basketball...

I have an admission...  

 

You all know that I love football, but I have to admit that basketball is one of my first loves when it comes to sports!  I have a little experience with this sport......yes, I played a little in my day!  The sport, as frustrating as it can be, is fun and fast paced, and look out if someone on the other team needs to let go of some aggression!  Between 'boxing out', flying elbows, mean looks, fast breaks, and a little 'dirty playin', basketball is one of the best sports to watch and play. 

As I was watching my nephew Adam play, I could see a little of me in him.  Sorry Adam!  :)  I just take my sports a little too serious.  I guess you could say, I'm just a 'little' competitive!  But hey, having a little competition in life never hurt anybody!  I believe, that competition is what drives most people to be better or do better -- not just in sports, but also in whatever comes our way throughout life!  For me, I just wanted to be better.  Better than the person next to me.  I wanted to win.  That drive.....that adrenaline, I believe, is what motivates us to become a more well-rounded individual.

And Adam, when I was playing a little on the side in my college days, my friends would always take me out to get ice cream or some kind of comfort food afterwards.  It usually works!  :)

Ok, with that said, "JUMP BALL"!

I know that this next picture might look a little different, but some man decided to shoot a few pics with his camera across the court WITH HIS FLASH ON!!  But I thought this shot made for a cool pic anyway!

I just like this one for some reason....

Great game boys!!

So if ya'll like basketball, stayed tuned!!  I got invited to shoot the BYU basketball game this Saturday!  WooHoo!  Should be fun!
