Boobie Gibson playing in the all star celebrity game. I remember one series where I thought he might one day play in the actual all star game…I’m sure many of you remember that series too.

Most excited for the Rising Stars games.

Still not sure if I like the tournament layout, but hoping they prove to be entertaining games.

The rising stars is the only thing I'm particularly interested in and that's only because of who we have participating. All-Star weekend has been terrible for a long time. They made it too big and too gimmicky.

Man, Clorox just “feels” like a weird sponsor.

I actually prefer that to another bank, mortgage company or equity firm. At least Clorox comes with a warning label; may be hazardous!

I was thinking the same thing. I can’t even explain why it feels weird. Maybe it’s because it’s a brand that’s synonymous with a product? Like if it was just he Band-aid Slam Dunk contest
