If you stick to closely to the rules the game would never end. These guys won't see a blind eye turned towards the rules like this again until they make it to the NBA. The most dangerous place in the world to be on a Saturday morning is under the basket during a basketball game being played by 10 year olds. Man, you can really hear the skin poppin'!

And, the teams have rotating moms who bring various goodies after the game (snacks & drinks only). The first games I watch every Saturday morning include my now-7-year-old son who is the only kid on either team (the same teams play each week.....church league) who is autistic. Yeah, he wears new shoes and we're able to buy him apparel that fits and he has grandparents in the stands for every game, but he'll always be autistic. Know what? He's not only the happiest one out there playing (he has the entire crowd section in stiches because he likes to grab the ball & run a-la a RB for a touchdown, grinning from ear to ear), but he's also the most verbal (not a typo.....the autistic kid now talks more than the others) and believe it or not the son of a gun <b>scored last week.</b> No help, no cheating, no special assistance. The kid did what 6 others on the court failed to do & he scored a basket. I'm suprised that you didn't hear my screaming up in your neck of the woods. :) GREAT and interesting story as I spend my Saturday mornings in much the same manner.
