why not just plan it for indoors? no need to worry about weather.

I actually think Fonde is closer to downtown than Memorial and Waugh. I think Memorial/Waugh is the location of the YWCA.

I may be on the disabled list for this game, pending the results of my endoscopy. Although me in a weakened state is probably still vastly superior than any of you at full speed.

My only regret from the last game is that no one captured me on film when I stripped the ball from Sonny and drove the length of the court for the game winning lay-in.

Fonde is off of Sabine.

Spotts Park is not too far away from Sabine anyway.

401 South Heights Boulevard is the address for the place over off Memorial and Waugh.

I have an injury to my left index finger, yet I will show up.

Fonde is at 110 Sabine, Houston,TX 77002

It makes me happy to know that's your greatest life achievement.

Although I don't remember it and either does anyone else... shows you how little it mattered huh?

We did miss you at EVERY other game though.

Sonny, I would be *very* surprised if you didn't remember it. You came up to me later complaining that I fouled you. Just be happy I didn't 'Frederick Weis' you like Vinsanity.

Note to self: Restart basketball career with the addition of making layups instead of just draining the 3's...

I may come out of retirement for one more game. I haven't had a serious injury recently.

Does Fonde get very crowded? I've never been there, so I don't know how many courts they have, price to get in, etc. I just want to make sure that once we get wherever that there is at least a court available for us.
