My daughter called me from the Gary Genesis Center while I was doing homework for yet another college course I was taking. She asked me if I had my season tickets for the new basketball team yet. I asked, what basketball team? She went on to explain that she was at the Genesis Center covering the announcement of Gary's new fall/winter team for her television station. She also said the new team logo looked great and the presentation seemed professional.
I then asked, what league? That is very important because of the [i]joke[/i] minor league basketball leagues around. The IBL, she answered. Cool, the International Basketball League (IBL) is probably the only good minor league outside of the NBADL. I mean, this demonstrates how out of touch I am these days because I knew nothing...probably because I have been spending so much time bicycling around Chicago's beautiful lakefront instead of attending to more important matters. Thank goodness for a mild fall. I was sure to tell my daughter good looking out for me. She earned the cost of her tuition today...well, not really. She still needs to landscape my new yard or something when I move. Anything. Build me a stone patio maybe.
Yes, I can do season tickets on such short notice. The season starts only 1 1/2 months after this announcement. I have been looking for something to do this winter since the home team AAHL Chi-Town Shooters hockey franchise folded.
