Hey, Zia, did the Lakers make the playoffs????

That's great! Congrats!! And I HATE when there are trash-talking folks next to you. We went to a Yankees-Blue Jays game a few years ago, and the guy in front of us was a Blue Jays fan. He would yell out things like "Hey, ARod, you can't hit the side of a barn!!" and yell encouragement to the Toronto players. My youngest daughter leaned over and whispered, "Mommy, I think he believes that the players can hear him." It was so funny. On the way out, though, after the Yankees had kicked their asses, he did lean over and congratulate us on the win, so he wasn't all bad.
