Great day... Got to meet some real cool guys who just happen to play basketball...

So, today I was fortunate to meet some great guys from the LA Clippers NBA team and the Russian League, who cared enough while they were on their European exhibition tour to stop by and support a local Russian Orphanage in Moscow. (unfortunately while i took some great pics with them and the kids, i forgot to get one of me with them... maybe next time guys...)Seeing these guys and how the children interacted with them was really cool- Wish i could have gotten on film when the kids pulled them onto the floor and every one was dancing traditional Russian dances- The stills of the dancing just don't seem to do the dancing justice... (maybe when I get new camera...)

Seeing them here today reminds me of how important that well known people make known their efforts to support their favorite charitable causes.  Having witness it first hand years ago, with the Toys for Tots program in Virginia, having one or two people (who other people connect with) suggesting that we get involved with a cause, can sometimes be just the catalyst to get us moving an collectively making a difference.  When this site gets fully develope it will lend itself to allowing people to make these connections.  Thanks guys for your time today, Know your tired from the 11 hour time difference and have practive right after this, but as you can see from some of these photos, you all really gave hope to these kids, that other people acknowldege them and are working to help make their lives better...

So attached below are some of the pics i took today...
