Basketball Scout Gifts

'A basketball scout wants to talk to the prisoner.'

"The big bucks are in pro sports. So instead of doing your homework, get out there and shoot some hoops!"

'Billy! Set your homework aside and get down here. There's another basketball recruiter here to see you.'

'Our giant sale now on!'

'This may be an old computer, but it won the March Madness office pool again and wants the money deposited in its Swiss bank account.'

'Wanna play? We need another body... er... one more player.'

Dart player with long darts. 'Look, rules are meant to be broken, aren't they?'

Later accounts would call it the Greatest Water Battle of All Time,

"I like you kid, but you're really just a work in progress!"

"The good news is he costs a quarter of what a string quarted would; the bad news is that, of course, he's suffocating."
