i don't know where this thread has been my whole life but this is becoming my favorite ff thread of all time.

your kid will grow to despise basketball if there really is a kid and this isn't some schizophrenic episode. he probably already hates it. would rather be a kid than study/practice. he'll tell you he loves it because that the only way he feels love from his father. but deep down a hardening loathing for you is being created.

just look for the kid on the court, field, diamond with a sullen look on his face, and you can easily match them up to the parent in the bleachers furiously tallying up statistics, and shouting plays you worked on in the backyard.

He's had a great summer,started working with coach Dwight Miller of Cape Fear Christian Academy.things he struggled with last season is now becoming easy.he has the strength now to shoot from 21ft,so he is working on 3pt shooting now,he's great from 12-15ft.still doing a lot of ball handling.as always the real results will show when his games start,hoping to have a better season than last year.he wants to get involved with Rick Lewis' camps,Rick has the top players in the state at his camps.if he plays competitive and to his ability
,that might be our next step to get involved in Rick's camps.

These are the 2 main reasons why he work so hard and also everybody he talks to say he'll never make it cause it's a black sport,he even hears this from close friends and family relatives .but I'm sorry to all you folks about his behavior online I'll have to monitor him closely.but in the end I'm a little happy that he's burned this bridge cause as any father here in north Carolina with a basketball playing son I'm pushing UNC but that choice is totally up to him,I'll do all I can to help him get somewhere
I don't think he's interested anymore. But there is some good hoops being played on reservations.

so far good working on freethrows,he can put the ball on the floor and get to the line pretty easy.got to improve his freethrow %, he leaves a couple points at the line.make his free ones and he could go from 16 pts per gm to about 20 per gm. he's shooting about 58% from the line working on improving that area of his game

Hate that the flames are having a bad season.we were up there back during the summer at camp,and the players were ready for the season to start.talked to a player that said he turned down a offer from Creighton to come to liberty. been watching the games on tv and aint seen him play yet. seen the team practice some and I figured that they had potential to finish in the top 5 in the big south. I was wrong, but we still pull for the flames
