Bballing.



The next morning, I was so happy to be able to participate in the Special Olympics of NJ's Basketball Tournament. Several local titleholders, Geri, Chuck, and I got to announce, keep score, color commentate, and run the scoreboard. Okay, I'll be honest - basketball is not my forte, so the others did that stuff, but I got to meet the kids and cheer. These children are honestly amazing - such great athletes with spirit beyond belief. And the parents and family members who were there, cheering on not only their kids, but all the kids on every team. And the referees and coaches who volunteer their time and energy. AAAAA-MAZING people, amazing program. I can't wait for the next event.
