oh! Holy shit! I feel really stupid now!

I didn't see the balls but I was trying to figure out what the things on the corners were. I thought they might have been clamps for a large sign or something.

I kept looking at the "Net Champ" sign thinking it had been cut off another sign which is why I was thinking basketball.

Oh, you mean you were serious? I seriously thought you were joking. Sorry for not replying sooner. If it makes you feel any better, I have seen this sign at least 5 times a week for the past year, and I only really "saw" it a week ago.

I seriously new he was being serious and I would like to point out that once again --- or noted if you will - if one can not note though - i will just point out --- I am the S-M-R-T-est of the people in this convo.


Heh.
