Balltime

What started as an innocent shoot-around turned into Leftoverchinese and Owltakecareofit teaming up on the basketball court to lose two games in a row to a father/son team who bordered on creepy/too competitive. The son seemed to old a teenager to be hanging out with his dad, so we jokingly wondered if it was a different sort of relationship. I had approached the playground to see the father character throwing tennis balls at his son while urging him to "stay in the batters box!" We secretly hoped they wouldn't approach us for a game, but they did anyway. Highlights included Quinn scoring all of our points in the first game, me getting a block on their first possession, the son commenting on my "new shoes" (purchased 2001), and Quinn setting a pick and getting a stiff shove from the son. All in all, we learned our lesson: next time, bring it.
