Globetrotters Game On Saturday

How cool is this?

I get to play in the Globetrotters game on Saturday at the Verizon Center. The only thing is I am playing against the Globetrotters, meaning that I will get clowned on, dunked on, and crossed-over on, for the Washington Generals.

If you Google the Globetrotters, you will find their Web site, which tells you all about their players with names like "Big Easy," "Buckets," "Handles," and "Flight Time."

If you Google the Washington Generals, you will find a site about a non-profit business organization.

There is actually a Wikipedia page that has some info on the Generals, who have lost more than 13,000 games to the Globetrotters.

Perfect. No pressure to perform, and anything I can add to the Generals -- which isn't likely to be much -- is a bonus.

Hopefully we can pull off the upset. If you don't have anything to do on Saturday, game time is 1 p.m. at Verizon Center.
