Slow Thought
Be patient. This is going to take a minute--but it'll be worth it.
If insane asylums had basketball teams, and they played in leagues with other asylums (which might not be too far off from the present NBA)... What if they had a championship game? Of course, it would be played in front of people who would be crazy too, since no sane person would really want to watch a bunch of old men play a game as quintesentially ignorant as basketball, no matter how good they were. (Yes, I just called basketball stupid. I realize that's punishable by exile in some parts of the state. I'll leave peacefully.)
So the underdogs, the Louisville Loonies, have been down all night, but they've been slowly coming back, especially since the end of the 3rd quarter. With only 13 seconds left, though, and up by two, the Psychos are in control of the ball, and seemingly the game, when Larry Lubbert (#28) loses the ball! My God! It's up for grabs. The refs are calling it a jump ball and Oh my God! Can you believe it! It's Louisville's ball! 6 seconds on the clock, quick inbound pass to McElroy who's open from way-y-y-y-y beyond the three point line and BAM! Nothing but net! And the crowd goes sane!
It's a controversial treatment, Dr. Tupidsay, but it seems to have worked. Tell me, Doctor, is it necessary to be a sports' fan for it to work?
(It was good for me...how about you?)
