    Top of backboard is in play, but if it touches any of the supports, it’s out of bounds. My guess is it will hit a beam or wire, then go through the basket but not count.

    Next year the NBA will have a tunk contest at the All-Star game in which players will stand at the opposite foul line and fling the ball with one hand at the far basket.

    If it bounces high enough it just might hit my level of disbelief.

    It bounces up to the roof and comes down directly on top of Lisle Ishee’s head, compressing all the vertebrae in her neck and upper spine. Maxwell Bacon offers her an aspirin.

    Apparently “tunk” is the sound heard when one breaks the laws of physics.

    I have a dream….Kenzies “tunk” drops in for the win, and in celebration her teammates carry her on their shoulders than “thud”… Her head is slamed into the top of the door frame, knocking her unconcious only to awaken in Kansas surrounded by a pack of dwarfs trying to figure what the #%+^< just happened!Keri & Jaymie

    In all reality, the ball hits the gym’s cross beam with such force it dislodges it causing the roof to collapse trapping the fans. Suddenly a fan gives the beam a mighty heave and one shouts there’s a light up above and forty fans scam be from a would be grave and now there’s no one left to save Big John, Big John Pascoe.

    Tunk is the king of Lem in Alley Oop.

    Well, it looks like that throw has cracked the glass. The ball bounces off the catwalk and swishes through the basket as it’s crashing to the floor. Next week, baseball and softball.

    And of course, the players who are actually standing on the court are wondering just WTF Menzie is doing shooting the ball from the sideline. Parkland wins!

    Top of the backboard is not in play, ball goes to other team, and no points awarded if it goes in the hoop.

    The arc and carom of the ball doesn’t add up physic-ally speaking. Peacocks, tat slaps, bow ties, retired wrestling heels, giant toddlers and long drives to Hawaii. Kevin Garnett said anything is possible.

    Yes, it drops in for the win. After the game, our favorite reporter asks K where she learned to shoot like that. Her response:a) The NRAb) Kenny Brown. (Resulting in another awkward situation for Max when she tries to explain: Hey, things happen.)

    I say “in all reality”, who cares about “in” play? Think about the other players on the floor. What about four play?

    In all reality, when do the play downs start if Milford wins and are they eliminated if they lose ? Not that I care either way .

    I wonder if the person with the “strongest arm in the building” is going to hang around for softball season or if her mysterious injury has healed enough to return her to the rugby pitch.

    Children, children, children. You all forget that Max has taught her how to shoot and Max is friends with Tru. Tru isn’t only a quarterback, he’s a pitcher. Pitchers put all kinds of spins on their throws. Ken Brown, meanwhile, has magical powers to make things happen (sort of a poor man’s David Blaine) and is somewhere in the stands. It seems you’re all over reacting to what, in Milford, is not only normal but expected. I’m sure it will hit the rim and bounce through all the panels up to P-3 where it will start to roll around until Tuesday. It’s not like we haven’t seen cheerleaders doing gymnastic vaults to score winning touchdowns on the last play of the game, as the gun goes off. Speaking of guns going off..please no suicides no matter “how the ball bounces”.
