Anybody see me shooting free throws at halftime? I was hoping to be wearing the SOB shirt, but I had to put on a Bucks shirt....I totally choked! Only made 2 free throws out of 7-8 and I lost the rock, paper, scissors tie breaker so the other guy got to shoot the halfcourt shot....but the other guys was a freaking AAU Coach.....he only made 2 free throws too though. Not sure that's a weird coincidence.....5 minutes after I bust out the SOB shirt I get asked to shoot the half court shot.....hmmmm


Courtside seats were incredible.....only sat there for the 4th quarter, but it was my first time....unreal.....these were not given to me by the Bucks but I did end up with the tickets from a friend.

The Bucks MC guy came up and asked my buddy about the Save Our Bucks shirt....I spoke to him after the game.....he said he liked the shirt and would check out the website.....

There were many highlights to the night, but one great moment was when I was walking into the tunnel to courtside club and Steinmiller & Monroe are standing there both eyeing me up.....about 3 rows back all of a sudden some guy who's probably in his 50's starts chanting really loud "SAVE OUR BUCKS! SAVE OUR BUCKS".....I just gave them both a little smirk and a nod and went on my way......we did speak later on though.....interesting conversation......I'll leave it at that....he definitely knows who I am now.

That's interesting. A few years ago I was asked before a game to do the half court shot. I said sure and they asked me a few questions, did I ever play pro ball, college ball, coach. When I said I coached my son's team they disqualified me. Made no sense.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Probably didn't have enough to pay you if your half court shot went in.

I squandered an asset? Then Hammond taught me well.

Those promotions are insured. I was told it was an insurance company condition.

I know! I was asking the Bucks rep about it........I think the Bucks were totally fvking with me.......I was willing to go thru with it because I thought if I make that halfcourt shot it would've been insane.

The details are best left private. But I will just say we had a respectful conversation of what Save Our Bucks has done so far and what we're going to be doing moving forward. I just wanted to display that I go to games and am not hiding behind a keyboard and only posting things on the internet. Talking face to face always allows you to express ideas and feelings better. That's what I wanted to do with Steinmiller.
