Advanced Sponsorship
I was feeling refreshed when I arrived at Catherine's house that Sunday. She'd cancelled our training the day before because her team was taking part in Vancouver's junior varsity basketball tournament, which had given me a much needed day off....
Backroom Deals
I was already a bit tired when I got into the back of the car. Catherine and I had played a bit late that Saturday, and the dinner with Mr and Mrs DeMille had been anything but relaxing. My stomach already felt a bit uncomfortable as I started doing up...
The First Step
The Furry Basketball Association was created by Buck Hopper. Shane Rufus belongs to Shane Rufus (surprise surprise). Devon Kellendyne belongs to KM Hirosaki. The San Jose Thrust is managed by Lizzimba. For more information, visit the FBA's...

Questions of Leadership
I think the next day was the only time in my life I've ever wished for slush. I wanted there to be a storm, a frigging deluge of ice and rain. Anything that would keep everybody but Catherine away. When I stepped out of school, though, it was sunny....
Benefits of Additional Training
It was almost a surprise when the others started showing up again. Catherine and I had been playing together for a good two and a half months, almost every evening. In January, things kind of slowed down a bit as Catherine tried out for her school's...
Basic Sponsorship
"Why didn't you show up yesterday?" I'm not sure what surprised me more: the fact that Catherine was at the court before I was, or the fact that she seemed to be offended about something. Normally I could only get her to crack by hinting that I was...
