That was an interesting report, B-man, and I believe it. The teens in my hood last summer just hung out, played basketball in the park pretty much all day long. At the time I didn’t think about it along generational lines, but I remember noting that all the courts were filled every day and just about anytime I went past. Anyway, the BBC nailed it.
