That is hysterical, Carol. My son is playing basketball this year and I know I'll be spending more time on the court than in the backyard for awhile.

That gnome is too much! Wonder if they make one in a Knicks jersey?

I'm betting that at half-time your gnome hears the call of the wild and heads out to one of the four corners in the garden.

No way, Carol - gardening can't be the same as basketball because my garden sometimes makes me weep and Tom Hanks said there's no crying in basketball and... oh, wait a minute. That was baseball.

Gnever mind.

This post reminds me of the dad from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," only instead of connecting everything to Greek, you connect everything to gardening.

Only you can make a connection from any subject to gardening! A talent I much admire! Love the gnome! gail

And you are the coach for all of us raw prospects in gardening, Carol! My thoughts have been turning toward basketball ever since the Illinois football team lost to Purdue. Of course, I like college basketball instead, though I do enjoy watching Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz. Looks like Purdue is the team to beat this year!

My "sport" in the winter is housecleaning. Amazing how dirty and cluttered the house is after the first hard frost, and how it never needs cleaning after the first snowdrop blooms.

LOL! They saw you coming, and designed a gnome just for you. Enjoy the little guy.~~Dee

What a funny post Carol. I will have to have my BIL and DB read this since they like pro basketball. I am still not convinced though. Gbloomer is a handsome dude for your garden. You will have to put up a small peach basket for him and his buddies to shoot around.

Well, it's early. And my guy Manu Ginobli swatted a BAT on the court and had to have a dozen rabies shots. Duh!

Did they win? No, they dug as big a hole as I've ever seen them dig. The new gnome and I couldn't get out of there fast enough!

And gardeners divide plants and make cuttings to s-t-r-e-t-c-h their materials for the garden just like basketball players stretch to reach their goals. Just like you s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d to write this post!!! The gnome is unbelieveable - they'll sell anything! So, did they win? Not many Spurs games on TV yet, anxious for season to get on with it!
