I blame this all on Becky Reineke Boblitt

I blame this all on Becky Reineke Boblitt.

She convinced me to go out for the eighth grade girls' basketball team. Let me be blunt, this was not a good fit...one game we were winning something lilke 86 to 6. We ran one play in the fourth quarter.

I was to get to the top of the key, someone would pass me the ball, and I would try - try is the optimal word here - to shoot a basket.
