The big problem with basketball is that it’s too hard. Practically impossible. Very dangerous. Maybe that’s why it’s so fun to watch? At the San Francisco Gay Basketball Association League Finals, everyone finds out. This grand celebration of local gay basketball includes the announcement of league prizes (hottest, best-looking, most beautiful, etc.) by Greg the Gay Sportscaster of Energy 92.7, and appearances by Cheer SF. Not to downplay the athletes, but it’s a good thing these are championship games, because with Cheer SF around, mere sports teams always have to compete for audience attention. And they’re already playing basketball. Halftime fan-skills contests, yelling, staring, and impure thoughts are all part of the plan; no word yet on celebrities with courtside seats.
