Trying to Keep On

I'm narrowing my focus
I'm staring down the fairway
I'm taking vitamins

All the things I need to do to keep the vision in tact, I'm doing.

Today there was an Inservice at my work.  The she-boss/owner has been up to no good truth be told so it wasn't the greatest meeting. I'll save the details, but it was a crap way to start a freakin Sunday morning.

From there it got a lot better - took the dog for a hike and went to play basketball at a small park where I've spotted these two HUGE teenagers recently.  These two kids are 6'7" and 6'8" and 16 years old.  And they are out there every day practicing hoop.  I love it.  But what is kinda sucky for them is that they both SUCK really bad.  I mean they can't shoot the ball in a straight line - they are obviously growing into their bodies, so they look horribly erratic and spazzy, so what do you think happens?

All three times I've seen them out there, there is a different dude (strangers who just walk up) instructing them on how to spot up, how to position themselves, how to defend, how to rebound, how to box, how to drive the ball down low, how to do this and how to do that.... OMG.  It's really sick!  And the worst part is I know I have the key to these kids success.

Don't come to this park. 

Everyone wants to be their daddy/coach.... These kids got recruited to play at a local high school, so they are new to the area.  Everyone at the park knows them and talks about them during games like they just found the next Lou Alcindor and Bill Walton.  

Oh well - just goes with the territory being a pick-up basketball slut.
