Jimmer Time

For Christmas I got Scott tickets to the Washington Wizards game against the Sacramento Kings, aka Jimmer Fredette's team.  We went Wednesday with Scott's brother Todd and his wife. They have been visiting for a few days. We had such a great time cheering for Scott's mancrush Jimmer. 
He only played for one quarter, but that was probably enough because I was a little out of control when he was in the game.  Nothing major, just typical stuff like screaming for him, at his coach, the refs, and every Wizards fan in our general vicinity. I don't think I used too many swear words, so I felt like I represented BYU Alumni pretty well.  I think my sister-in-law was shocked and perhaps a little frightened that we were going to get jumped if I didn't shut up. Obviously, she needs to visit my hometown on a Friday night in January or maybe attend a few church basketball games. 
 Scott and I made a brief appearance on the Jumbotron, but they quickly moved the camera away when we started screaming for Sacramento.
Jimmer for 3!  He had 8 points in the short time he played. Why he isn't playing all the time is a source of great contention with us and his coach.
Scott caught a Wizard,s shirt in the 3rd quarter. All the true Wizard,s fans were livid that a punk in a King's jersey caught a shirt that he didn't even want. We heard a lot of comments about how white men really can jump. When Jimmer's coach didn't put him back in the game, I put the Wizard's shirt on in protest.

Oh my goodness, such fun. Did you keep the Wizard shirt? Of course you can cheer for them, just not when they are playing Sacramento.
