I am NOT going to let these motherfuckers (note proper usage) get away with it either!
My hoop was awesome. Complete with A10 logo on the backboard.

Crotchedy old dude from Delaware yelling at folks to get off his lawn. Assumed it had to be 89Hen. My apologies.

LT Jennifer Griffin-what a lying bitch.
Also on the front page of the Delaware Online:
"Report says DelDOT running out of money for new road, transit projects" http://www.delawareonline.com/article/2 ... |text|Home" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Well, apparently they have enough $ to go around stealing kids basketball goals.

i'm confused - why would they care if there was a hoop up in a cul-de-sac?
even here in basketball indifferent minnesota lots of cul-de-sacs have them (more of them become street hockey rinks in the winter - the goals just get set in the snowbanks when not in use)

No kidding. This is why people hate the government. There is a tremendous lack of common sense in many govt bureaucrats.
And I don't use this word to describe many women but that woman is a cunt.

when i was growing up, we had problems with high school kids playing mailbox baseball - and running over our mailbox post (we lived the redneck exurbus back then)
so after the third post was run over - my old man had had enough...
went out and picked up a piece of T-beam about a half inch thick and about a foot in diameter and sunk two feet in to the ground - with three feet or more above... and my grandfather - a journeyman welder - mounted a home-made mailbox on it. sucker wouldnt budge...
two weeks after installing it - about 2 am BOOM! i look out my window, and there is a late 70's AMC Pacer front end wrapped around that T-beam which was bent maybe 30 degrees, but not broken... my dad walked out to the top step and shouted "i called an ambulance, hope you boys weren't drinking..."
we bent the beam back in to place (still tilted 15 degrees or so) and nobody ever f'd with again.
if i were these people - i'd sink a deep-ass hole fill it with concrete and make that pole a real bitch to take out next time.

That is so fucked up it's unbelievable.
Someone needs to go after her job and fire the dumbass who thought this was a good use of tax dollars.
I feel like joining a tea party, or a militia, or apologizing to Native or something.
