I don't know the first thing about Basketball. Football, sure. Baseball, I hold my own. But I never got into B-Ball. Guess it's because I'm white and 5'6". And I'm a New Yorker, so the Knicks wouldn't have been any inspiration.

As an aside, one of my best friends growing up is 6'11 1/2" and just as Irish as me. One day, having been asked one too many times "Do you play Basketball?" he looked waay down at the guy and said "No. Do you play minature golf?" before spitting on him.
