I went bowling with a few co-workers and friends yesterday evening as we usually do on Thursdays. We were having a good time competing and keeping up with the NBA Finals scores. As the night neared its end, we noticed another party, a group of about 8 black males who were placing bets against each other to roll strikes, spares or have the high score. We noticed because there was a disagreement about a $5.00 bet and yelling ensued.
I digress, it reminded me of the scene in Barbershop when Lahmard Tate’s character, while stealing an ATM, drops the task to chase a man who owes him $5.00. When confronted about the situation he stated, “It’s not the money….. It’s the Principle.”
