Bones Plays Basketball |

Bones is on the hood basketball team. They play in the inner city league, against other hoods. The games are good, even if they are a little rough. Lots of mile a minute trash talk. Everyone has a ball. Bones collects a split lip. Bobby |

That's why I never liked basketball when we played at school. Somebody was always running all over you and knocking you down. Not my cup of tea. Ida |

No harm, no foul... What's a fat lip between hoods? "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |

Thanks dear Ida, Yes, that's the way basketball is sometimes. I'm sorry that you had that problem. Love Bobby |

Thanks Andrew, Yes, that's the way it is when you venture out of the hood. Thanks for the good advice. Bobby |

Oops, I read this out of order. The hood is one tough place. Enjoyable as always. |
