Message: [QUOTE="Symphony Steve, post: 1470955, member: 911"] I live in northern Delaware. If some of you go, I'll try to join you for a meetup and at least a day of hoops. Bobby Jacobs was a real piece of work. He had a state job, but he virtually never worked at it. He was always in Legislative Hall, handing out perks to the legislators (I worked there for 23 years) more or less in exchange for state funding for the tourney. Whole thing seemed hinky from the beginning. Turned out that it was in fact, pretty sordid, as was Jacobs. BTW, here's the back story on Jacobs who, surprise, was siphoning $$'s from the tourney coffers, was not following through on promised scholarships, was stiffing the workers and contractors, and then became a fugitive: [URL]http://philaphans.com/community/index.php?/topic/23790-ot-bob-jacobs-slam-dunk-to-the-beach-link-is-worth-clicking/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
