    Just got back from Fonde Park. Saw francis, stuck up as ever. Wouldnt sign an autograph for anyone. Mobley's team played and wooped my friends team. Final score 100 -82. Mobleys team includes James Posey and Damon Jones and some scrubs. Anyways..it was cool and if i had pictures ide post them. And about someone asking if it was ghetto. Yes it is, if you think you would feel uncomfortable, dont go...trust me..

    Man this is actually a reason that I wouldn't want Jones. One of the by products of doing this T-mac deal, is the fact that we shipped out two notorious complainers in Cato and Steve. And we got back Tracy, who I haven't heard as being a complainer, and the totally professional Howard. I was thinking it would be great to get away from all the ref-baiting BS that this team engaged in too much the past few years.

    I'd rather have Daniels, then the team would just shut up and play.

    Good point. Steve was a walkin "T" right after Sheed and his hall of fame "T"

    But thats a game at Fonde. I hope he doesn't try that with Dick Bavetta

    Francis didn't play but he will play on Monday. Posey played good I forgot how long he is, sure wish we still had him.

    The games are on Mon. and Wed. thru mid August.

    I was there too. Damon was just out there having fun nothing serious. I saw Steve sign a few autographs for some kids. My boy plays for the Fonde All Stars. I was glad when they came back and beat Moses Malones team. Is Cassell playing in the league too or is he still recovering from his injuries? I saw T.J. Ford sitting in the stands too, I hope he makes a full recovery from his surgery and has a good season next year.

    so the public is free to walk in and watch these games or do you have to be a member? Also is it packed elbow to elbow?
