@scottij - Scotti j you just made my day! If I clicked like on every comment here, my arm would fall off. First things first congratulations on living a healthy active lifestyle since receiving your heart transplant. Glad you're besting the series! I must say seeing your photo and reading your colorful Spotlight let alone your Sports Center commentary struck me as so refreshing and relatable. Thank you! My husband, two kids, and I are a basketball family. For my daughter's 18th birthday we all went and got basketball tattoos of some sort. Round ball Hoops bball whatever you want to call it it's the best ain't it? Your wifey does indeed sound like an angel but something tells me it goes both ways. Congrats on 45 years of wedded bliss! You are winning the game, my friend. Good to have you around kickin the knowledge on Connect.

Rachel,
Thanks for the encouragement. And props to you for struggling with chronic pain and keeping a positive attitude through it all.

Hoops were great this week. We had a crowded 4 on 4 and everyone got a few bruises when passing through the paint. Game one, to 15 by ones, took us 55 minutes. It was either defensive dominance or offensive futility.

I am heading to physical therapy this week to figure out why my right hip hurts even though it was replaced in 2022 and, per Mayo, is structurally sound. As a transplant patient I am banned from n-saids so we will see if a PT specialist can determine how to get those muscles back in line!
Best always,
s!
