I'm sitting here, posting messages with the Lakers game in the backgroung (a veritable renaissance man, I know), and the announcer says, "Rick Fox with the field goal!"

I thought he said, "Ripped farts with the field goal!"

Somehow, I don't think this says much about my subconscious.

I'm not a huge basketball fan, but the term for making a basket is indeed a "field goal." Of course, it's only worth three points if you shoot it from beyond the three-point arc or kick it between the uprights.

Lulu,

I'm not an expert on the rules of basketball, but I think I can clear things up a bit. The "three point arc" is where Jewish basketball players place their code of laws. It is considered a holy relic. "Shooting beyond the three point arc" is symbolic of making a basket for Jehova and is inherently worth more than the regular shot. "Kicking it between the uprights" is the phrase used when one starts behaving in a loose or "jive" manner, (aka "kicking it") between two members of the Upright Citizens Brigade. I hope your comprehension of the rules of basketball has been duly clarified.

That reminds me of an NBC ad I heard on WNEW where I thought I heard the announcer say something about a jag-off. Turns out he was talking about a JAG officer. Like there's a difference.
