Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for March 02, 2023

Haunted by past failures. Quite the ego killer.

Which half? 8^ )

Arlo is about as successful a shooter as an NBA star at the free-throw line.

Arlo is the master of the rim shot.

You are likely the only one who really remembers what you did or did not do, so, why beat yourself up over it? Life is too short to remind yourself of past inglorious moments.

I was convinced at an early age that basketball existed just to show me how I was utterly unsuited to play basketball.

Even in his imagination, Arlo can’t get the ball through the hoop.

Shoulda stuck with horseshoes.

Needs Luddie to assist!

I find I miss those baskets the most when I’m sick – and I’m tossing Kleenex. They don’t fly true generally, but I’m not gonna crumple them enough after I’ve used them.

March madness doesn’t begin until March 14. It keeps creeping away from March. This year it ends in April. A few more years and it’ll end around Mother’s Day.

Dang! Look at that! Nothing but rim!!!

One of my high school teachers had a rule – If you missed the wastebasket you had to get up in front of the class & knock out 25 push-ups.

How good would LeBron or Steph be if they had to use wadded up paper ?

Back when I was substitute teaching a while kids would often throw waste across the room toward the trash basket and intentionally miss.

“So much for basketball.”

“You think I can’t make it? I’ll show you.”

They seldom missed again. The ones who WOULD have missed went for slam dunks.
