Basketball
Last weekend, I went to a basketball game and it was pretty cool I had cotton candy and one team got 24 points and one only got 16 points. Did you know that William Anthony "Tony" Parker, Jr. is a French professional basketball player who currently plays for the San Antonio Spurs of the National Basketball Association. Basketball is a wonderful sport and I enjoy it. My dad played basketball on a team with my uncle and he says that is where I get my “skills” from.
Basketball is a sport that all ages can play and it is very fun. Basketball is a sport played by two teams of five players on a rectangular court. The objective is to shoot a ball through a hoop 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter and 10 feet (3.0 m) high mounted to a backboard at each end. Basketball is one of the world's most popular and widely viewed sports.
Now for the questions:
1. Have you ever been to a basketball game before?
2. If so was it fun?
3. What did you learn from this?

    I kind of like watching/playing basketball. I find it a bit more interesting to watch other sports than this one, mainly because I really have never just gotten into basketball. There are some things that are good about basketball and some things that aren't. But it is also a fun sport to play.

    What I like about playing basketball is mainly getting to learn better hand-eye coordination when it comes to dribbling. The easiest part about basketball to me is the dribbling. It makes it easier to get the ball, and also harder to keep it. That is like the only thing I like about basketball.

    Now the answers to the questions:
    1: I have never been to a basketball game, and I don't think that I want to go to one anytime soon.
    2: Same answer as the first one.
    3: That people have many different opinions and thoughts about different topics.

    I'm not a big fan of basketball. I don't watch on TV and the only times I play it is when were doing it in phys ed. I never was taken to a game and my family doesn't like that much, which is why I'm probably not very interested in it.

    My brother-in-law is a big fan of it. I remember when I was at his house watching the London Olympics with my nephews. Every time an ad came on he would change it to the basket ball game. Then he's wearing basketball shorts a lot. Other than him, I don't know anyone else in my family is a big fan.
    Question answers.

    1.No

    Personally, I love basketball and thinl that it is a way to get your excersise, and get to know your team mates. My Mom, Auntie, and Uncle all played basketball and they also say that's where I got my skills also! My mom played point gaurd, and both my Auntie and my Uncle played Post position.

    I have never been to a basketball game, and although I love to play it... I hate to watch it on TV. My cousin is on a basketball team at her school and she is constanty buisy with playing games!

    I didn't know the whole snippet about William Anthony Parker, and I think that it is so cool how people come from all over the world to play different sports with eachother!

    Yes, I have been on a basketball game before, lots of basketball games. I went on my brothers game sometimes, not always but when I do gets me excited, I love watching the other team spas out on my brother because no one can catch him. I am working on being a basketball player myself, and to tell you the truth, I;m quite good at it too. When I watched my brother in the finals, they almost win. My brother got injured at 2nd quarter of the game. It was good at the first quarter but in got down to 10 points lower than the other team. I learned that some people like other sports or have different opinions about basketball.

    I have been a few basketball games.I think basketball is very fun to watch but I don't like basketball,because I am small which makes it hard to play basketball.What I learned about basketball is that all ages can play and it is one of the most viewed sports in the world.

    1) I have been to my cousins basketball game.

    2) They are really boring at first but when it gets to a tied game and there is only a few seconds left in the game you don't know how is going to win.

    3) I learned that if you go to a basketball game bring something to do for a bite

    I've never been to a BasketBall game," watching real professional Ball players". But I've my classmates play. And I've played too! It's one of my favorite sports, aside from baseball. I love it. It's so intriguing.

    No, i've never really been to any basket ball games.
    I guess it sounds fun.. That and they have lots of the most unhealthy food for you.
    Why does all the best tasting foods have to be unhealthy!
    Right getting off topic.
    I'd watch basket ball, but I don't really like playing it.
    It seems okay, maybe ill go pull a ticket out of my rear and go watch one.

    UNCLES PLAYING BASKETBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My big brother's dream is to be in the NBA, so I have technically been to many a basketball game. I wouldn't say the were "fun", but they were not boring. Some are intense, the amount of bad reffing I have seen is incredible.

    In response to your "what have I learned from this" question, I have learned that you enjoy basketball games! But seriously I have learned that you have an Uncle that was a basketball player! I'm sorry, there are just too many funny references in this post!

    Your description of a basketball game makes it sound interesting and fun.

    I have not been to a basketball game, but now that I have heard how fun it is I want to see one.

    I do play the sport sometimes but not all day every day, but during school recess I do.

    I did not learn much from this post I knew their was only 5 players on the court. the one thing I did learn was how high the hoop was from the ground. Know I know that it would take a lot of effort to do a slam dunk!
