So instead of game thread girls, can someone do a profile of an underprivileged child whose education hangs on tonight’s game?Not many teams sweep the home and home games... This will test whether or not we are locked in or still floating between great and good. We haven't lost since they announced the scholarship thingy... so I think we are very pro-education...
Add all this up and this is a must win game for sure.
I thought about this but I'm worried there would be some racialism.So instead of game thread girls, can someone do a profile of an underprivileged child whose education hangs on tonight’s game?
I’m not sure a loss necessarily says what kind of team we are especially because a lot of their success depends on their 3 point shooting. If shooting is off and they lose, I don’t think it means anything, if we shoot decent to good and we lose, it says more IMO.Not many teams sweep the home and home games...

Well I guess you don't support education then... this is a must win... end of discussion.I’m not sure a loss necessarily says what kind of team we are especially because a lot of their success depends on their 3 point shooting.

Pretty sure we lost the very first game after the scholarship announcement, didn't we?Not many teams sweep the home and home games...

Maybe the first-hand experience of ruining a child's future is what sparked the run.Pretty sure we lost the very first game after the scholarship announcement, didn't we?
Just have him shake his head in disapproval when Bogey turns it over or when Rudy misses a layup that should have been a dunk.They need to bring the kid out to sit on the bench during the game so they can see whose life they hold in their hands at every time out.
When they start playing lazy or unfocused, Quin will have the players be forced to explain to the child why their effort is lacking.They need to bring the kid out to sit on the bench during the game so they can see whose life they hold in their hands at every time out.
The post game interviews would be something else!“Little Timmy’s dad died in an industrial accident. His mom is working three jobs, often leaving Timmy unsupervised for days in an unsafe neighborhood. Timmy has dreams of becoming a pharmacist and supporting his mother and little siblings. Please explain to Timmy why he won’t be going to college and why he will need to drop out of school at age 15 to get a job to support his little sister.”
Growing up and Utah and being Mormon has definitely taught me how motivating guilt can be.“Little Timmy’s dad died in an industrial accident. His mom is working three jobs, often leaving Timmy unsupervised for days in an unsafe neighborhood. Timmy has dreams of becoming a pharmacist and supporting his mother and little siblings. Please explain to Timmy why he won’t be going to college and why he will need to drop out of school at age 15 to get a job to support his little sister.”
I like this idea.On the sidelines, they should just have a photograph of every child that could get the scholarship. When the jazz lose, Coach Snyder could just take out his Zippo and torch the next picture while looking at the players disapprovingly. Now imagine him doing that, with no words, during a timeout.
"Rudy why don't you explain to Suzy why you thought it was a good idea to try that dribble drive right there?"When they start playing lazy or unfocused, Quin will have the players be forced to explain to the child why their effort is lacking.
