OMB: SHOOT 27


No air since 1998.

SHOOT Hoops is a group of families and friends, dedicated to the following:

“Ball is life.” 

“Beer is good.”

“Sunday is fun day.”

“Look at the mountain.”

and, 

“I was fouled by Andy Ryan.” 

Gentlemen and Karen (They/She/Him/He/Her/Me/Who/What/Where/Why)-

During the last 25 years of the SHOOT Tourney, we went from Type-Writers and fax onto the Internet and Web, through Game of Thrones and now AI. As we begin the next 25 years, we test the accuracy of ChatGBT.

We entered:  "Older and Younger guys playing in a SHOOT basketball tournament with beer, laughter and friendship throughout." 

ChatGBT reply: "That's either an offensive foul or traveling."

I would say somewhat accurate as the competitive spirit rises a notch.

The next entered phrase: "Having a beer in hand at The Hub auctioning of the teams for the SHOOT tournament."

ChatGBT reply: "That sound like a fun and exciting event!  The Hub auctioning teams for the SHOOT tournament must be quite the spectacle!" 

Indeed it is the spectacle.   For all, it is that joyous evening that kicks off the BEST WEEKEND OF THE YEAR!  SHOOT TONIGHT AT THE HUB BEGINS AT 6!!!! 

Last entered phrase: "What do I say when a fellow basketball player hacks me on the way to the hoop?"

ChatGBT reply:  "A proper response would be "YOU FUCKING HACKED ME!!" at which point the other player might respond, "That is such a bullshit call"    A proper next step would be to Look At The Mountain" 

AI is indeed incredible.   See you at THE HUB tonight.

p.s. ChatGBT is more commonly known as ChatGPT.

 

MEN OF SHOOT –

As we are moving into the great Labor Day Weekend, we are thankful that our labor on Sunday, will not be in vain.

  • We will run hard

  • We will sweat

  • We will laugh

  • We will hurt or be tired (not sure there is a difference)

  • We will have a refreshingly cold beer

  • We will be thankful

  • We will look at The Mountain

  • We will celebrate

  • We will remember

  • We will relax on Monday and think about how much we labored the previous day

Let the Games Begin!!!
