Hilarious. I know that it's not BG basketball related but this place has the most traffic and there is nothing to talk about related to BG anyway.
Read some of these previews for the books. Amazing.

Johnny Long Legs
Matt Christopher
Johnny's tall, but can he play hoops?
Everyone in Johnny Reese's new school assumes that his long legs will make him the star of the White Cats basketball team. But his legs have no spring, and his shorter teammates can easily out jump him. On top of his troubles on the court, Johnny has to get used to a new father and stepbrother who also expect a lot from him. Will Johnny Long Legs ever be the player everyone expects?

Re: Remember these books
When I was a kid, I always read Matt Christopher books. I would check them out from our school library.

I did too. The guy is probably a millionaire. I feel like we could write these books in like a half hour.footballguy51 wrote:When I was a kid, I always read Matt Christopher books. I would check them out from our school library.
Skip Frisbee always played baseball but his sidearm motion wore his arm out. His friend Hash Jenkins introduces him to disc golf but would he fit in with the hippies at the park? Would his parents think he was a communist?
Re: Remember these books
I try not to read anything written by someone named "Christopher"!
