Just gotta a call from Hilton Head...yeah its reached all the way down there allready. Our golfing/travelling buddy is down there at the airport waiting to pickup the San Fran Homeless mans photo taker :)

He shared a great story...many years agao he was in the BU dash-for-cash when you ran the court in your stocking feet and retrieved one dollar bills with a shovel. You had to bring them the length of the court without a second hand to hold them in the shovel.

When they counted the money after the alloted time some 70 y/o women ousted him by three dollars.

He says he STILL gets cr@p to this date about it.....he told me, now everytime there is a half court shot contest you'll freeze up start sweating and people will give you grief...


So I got THAT going for me.

That's a great story. I can picture it. I, for one, am confident you would have nailed a second shot if they had let you take it. And a 50% shooting pct from half court ain't bad.

Dogs as we know he'd love to post on here but, doesn't seem to be able to. I know he reads these so I hope they both enjoy Hilton Head but I hope he loses all his quarters.
 
DRU, unfortunately I wasn't there.

Sounds like you must of been fouled on the shot, right?

Had to have been fouled!

No way you couldn't have at least hit rim or backboard untouched.....

Tell me it was a missed call and you got shafted...MVC regular season refs I bet?

You would have made the three free throws right ??????

Was it true you were going to buy everyone on the Forum who was legal a beer with your $10,000 if you had made the shot or the three free throws?
 
I know what you are going thru..... (Please see "Shot clock violation at the 2010 MVC Championship"). At least I got my 'putt" there and then some!! I sure it was a blast for you!!

See ya soon. GO BRAVES
 
I had no sound on my video stream dogs so I wasn't quite sure what was going on. But, by the way you were acting all hyped up, I thought maybe you were supposednto dunk the ball. :eek: :lol: .......................... Might have been a little closer to making the dunk than that weak half court shot attempt. ;) :lol:

My only defense was I wish I could of had a few warmup shots....even three pointers to get a feel. I haven't tried a half court shot in 20 years, any muscle memory has dried up.....I was so focused on NOT crossing the line I forgot to let er fly.

Oh well the players, fans and even coach Les were all great to me...Les did say, "Bob...I expected better from you (with a wink and smile).

My driver said...."your walking home."

Whats also funny is I didn't text to enter...he just picked me out of the crowd.

Please dog, we all have seen those pathetic contestants at the games in the layup, free throw and 3 point shot contest:roll: You don't want to be classified as one of them,too:oops: Just let it go and go down as the worst/weakest half court shooter of all time:oops: If you see me at Gold's, on the course, at the games or for that matter anywhere, don't speak, as I'll do the same:lol: Until this,(if ever) is forgotten:lol: Come On Man:roll::oops: Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's:oops::oops:
