Here's a girl that will probably burn out from Basketball by the time she's old enough to attend High School.

And you know that how? Your posts have been foggy/wrong as of late and you have not burned out. I can't say you "probably' will because I have no idea.

... she has mastered ...dribbling, which she probably learned at a very young age and the ability and confidence to use that skill... most impressive.

Hope this doesn’t sound like bragging, but,… I mastered it at an even earlier age. In fact, thanks to reading the Boneyard, I now can even dribble sitting down, at my desk, in my sleep, at work.

How did everyone else do 3-pointers when they were nine? I don't know because they didn't exist when I was 9. (God I'm old! Dunking was illegal when I was at UCONN. Hanson ruled)

I think the only thing this kid has to worry about is if she never grows.

Yeah, but we meant dribbling with a ball.

I don't even know where the high road is.

Uh, Meyers; it's by yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes.

The 3-pointers were remarkable, but the way the kid was breaking ankles was super-awesome-remarkable!
