Basketball and More Basketball

This week we have be attending the Cumberland County (CC) basketball games in the District 4 All 'A' Tourney. Teams from several schools have all been playing in Burkesville at the high school. We've went Wednesday and watched the CC Lady Panthers win their semi-final game. Then Stacey and I went Thursday evening and watched the CC Panthers lose their semi-final game. Friday night there wasn't an empty seat in the building, with 4 different schools being involved in the championship games for both girls and boys. Jason and Stacey sat by each other for all the games. I made plans with Stacey and Jason for me to pick him up Saturday at 2 PM and take him to our house to watch a NBA game with Stacey.The girls' game was first on the schedule. We watched the CC Lady Panthers win the championship game by nearly 20 points. The home town crowd was going crazy during the game and immediately after the game the girls cut down the nets and had their pictures made with the trophy. We watched the first quarter and half of the second quarter of the boys game before we left. Russleville was defeated by Metcalf County in the boys final.
Saturday, Jason's favorite team is the Miami Heat and of course Stacey's is the Pacers. They played today at 2:30 PM. I picked Jason up and Stacey was at our house waiting with the TV on and ready to watch the game. They watched the first half of the game while Linda fixed a couple home made pizzas. Stacey was having a good time as the Pacers were beating the Heat. Jason wasn't as happy as Stacey.
  
We all ate pizza as the game was going on. After the first half and we were done eating, we went upstairs and watched the second half on the big screen TV. Miami started making a comeback and Jason started to show some excitement as they got closer to the Pacers. Stacey started getting quiet as the Heat took the lead. And at the end of the 3rd quarter, the game was tied. Both were pushing and lightly slapping each other on the arms and shoudlers. The Heat pulled away, but the Pacers caught back up. It was a close game with Miami winning in the final seconds by 2 points. Jason didn't rub it in and Stacey took it fairly well. Jason asked if we could shoot a game of pool after the ball game was over. We did, then it seemed like he was ready to go home, so Linda and Stacey took him home. I think they had fun watching their favorite teams play each other.
