Exactly, I just get together with friends anytime I can because I miss playing so much. Obviously not the same as being on a team but I love the game and will take it any way shape or form. I still go to a ton of nba and wnba games when I can too. Gonna see the NY Liberty this summer actually against the Indiana Fever. It’s the first pro outdoor basketball game (men and women’s )ever so it’ll be a lot of fun to be there and be a part of it: http://www.wnba.com/liberty/news/outdoor_classic_2008.html

I agree.. I'm totally into an outdoor WNBA game! Found this video on it: YouTube - NY Liberty's Outdoor Classic - 7/19 at Arthur Ashe Stadium

I can't believe the NBA never did this before?

I totally know how you feel! I remember getting home from my graduation feeling all sad, because I realized that it was over forever. Trust me though, once you get to college you'll soon put it behind you and then the real fun starts!
