Sideline Dispatches

M-A-Dollar Sign-E

Don't call it a comeback,
  • "Dispatches from the Sidelines" is here again in Columbus, Ohio for the men's basketball team's third and final game at the Black Coaches' Association Classic. Princeton will play Alabama A&M in about 30 minutes in the 5th-place game in the tournament, but right now the two teams that remain winless in the tournament--San Diego State and the Virginia Military Institute--are battling it out for 7th place.
  • VMI is up 94-71 with 8 minutes remaining, so it's hard to know whether to watch the game or this three-year-old kid in the stands who is cute as the Dickens. They were playing a song by Reverend MA$E on the PA system during the last timeout, and little man started doing the Harlem Shake. This kid is the truth.
  • Right now he's engaged in a stimulating hoops debate with Princeton junior forward Kyle Koncz, who is watching the VMI-SDSU game in the stands with the rest of his teammates.
  • Now, he is harassing one of the police officers handling security detail here at Value City Arena.
  • Now, his head is stuck in one of the folding chairs in the front row.
  • He's wearing an orange sweater. I can only hope I'm on the Princeton admissions committee in 15 years when this kid is applying to college. I know they have a "Yes" pile and a "No" pile, but is there such a thing as a "Hell Yes" pile?
