"Check it out... You'll never see me in a shirt so nice again, alright? Felicity Montgomery's turnin' this town upside down and I don't know what ice sculpture I'm supposed to give my thanks to. But hey, a party's a party I always say. How you doin', anyways?" @havensdalestarters

today is the inaugural pioneers classic, meant to tip-off the beginning of black history month.

chuck cooper was the first black player to be drafted to the nba. nat 'sweetwater' clifton was the first to sign an nba contract. and on Oct. 31, 1950, earl lloyd, a member of the washington capitols, became the first black player to play in an nba game.

all three men who broke the color barrier have died, but we should still celebrate them and the legacy they left behind.

#OTD in 2015:

Cooper: “Alright, my guys have Norton in their line of sight about two miles from here. We are in position.”

Sharon: “But not entirely invisible.”

Cooper: “Oh, damn!”

Sharon: “Mm-hmm.”

Cooper: “Okay, well in my defence, I trained Rusty how to spot somebody following him. Look, I understand your concern Captain but my people can't watch him forever.”

Sharon: “It's not forever, Lieutenant. It's just till he's out of danger.”

Cooper: “And when do Mothers decide their children are out of danger? If Rusty finds out what you're doing here, he's not gonna be happy.”

Sharon: “I know. I don't feel good about it, Lieutenant. But I would feel even worse attending his funeral. If you could just...”

Buzz: “Picture & sound on all cameras.”

Sharon: “Lieutenant Provenza, we go as planned. Radio discipline begins now.”

Buzz: “Uh, is something wrong?”

Sharon: “No. I was just wondering why we never saw Mr Norton hand off his roses to anyone.”

That year, Cooper, Earl Lloyd, and Nat “Sweetwater” Clifton became the first Black players in the NBA. Clifton was the first to sign an NBA contract — and on October 31, 1950, Lloyd, a member of the Washington Capitols, became the first African-American to play in an NBA game.

I am curious what is your thought on Amy and Chuck this is probably difficult to answer if you don't want to thats ok. On Ship ask Game - The basics

Question number 21 and 27

Thanks for asking these anon! This was certainly a tough one though, but I did enjoy answering them. Feel free to send more questions in the future. I reblog ask post(s) on Fridays and or on Saturdays typically, but feel free to ask me anything anytime. Here we go!

I liked them together on the show. I thought they made a very cute couple and was glad to see Amy have some fun. Unfortunately, we didn't really get to see their relationship play out. As was with Shandy, Amy & Chuck's relationship happened mainly offscreen (even moreso than Shandy's). It's all very unfortunate that he who must not be named decided to go that route instead of actually showing these couples having a healthy, loving relationship. Very unfortunate IMO.

21.) Do they enjoy domestic life?

It's hard to say given that both characters storylines weren't very well developed like they should have been. If I had to hazard a guess though, I'd say probably not. I think they enjoy being together, but as for domestic life, I don't really see either of them as the domestic type. I think they're both workaholics who love their jobs and spend any of their free time out together doing fun things. Hope this answered your question. It was sort of hard to come up with an answer for this as we didn't really have much to go on. So, it was basically just me making assumptions about their characters based on what little of them we actually got.

27.) How do they say "I love you" nonverbally?

I think it's a lot of gazing into each other's eyes from across the room sort of thing for them. Don't ask me why I think that. I just do. For them it's about always being connected, whether they're together or apart. Like when Coop sent flowers to the murder room for Amy. They're seem like a pretty low key couple. So, I seriously doubt that they have many PDA moments and generally prefer to keep their private life private. Again, not much to go on, but I did my best to answer this one too.
