I have to admit that I am not a big sports fan. In fact, I am probably the least sports minded person I know. I don’t even watch the Superbowl and everyone watches the Superbowl, whether they watched a regular season game or not. That is why I found it amusing that I got NBA tickets for Christmas.

In defense of the person who gave them to me, it was at an office Christmas party and the giver does not know me real well. I guess that is quite obvious and I figured that they must have been pretty cheap NBA tickets, given what our price range was for the exchange.

It is not that I am unthankful, but I had no desire to go and see a basketball game, when I would have no idea whatsoever what was going on. I was telling a guy friend about it when he said that he would often buy NBA tickets and that he would buy these from me. I was glad to sell them to him and I went out and bought myself a new sweater with the money. That was more like it.
