Again, everything from the Capital City League is like sitting down to play NBA2K-whatever, turning the settings on to full time, toggling the arcade experience, dropping the difficulty, and just screwing around. But it’s still a hell of a lot of fun. And it’s great to see the players showing some class.
Much love to all the Cyclone players that took time to take pictures with all of the kids, it is much appreciated!#cyclones
