How does being at the game give you more of an understanding of how he played than watching it on TV?
It makes a huge difference. Just ask Bobre 
You're learning. It'd be nice if scouts could stay home but it just doesn't work that way.
That's why I actually go and watch these kids play HS and AAU. So I don't watch a highlight video and wax poetic.
True, but there's a difference between what you do - seeing recruits in person rather than just highlights, and watching a full game in person and watching a full game on tv. You're not missing as much when you see a full game, even if it's on tv.
I know. Not sure if you knew where I was coming from but Bobre has a propensity to attack some of our fans who are displaced and not in the NYC area and can't come to games. A full game is a full game no matter where your watching it. As for HS and AAU yes there are more and more games on TV each year which is awesome. But still more than not are not televised and seeing those games in person trumps the Ball is Life quick hitters.
Don't specifically remember Bobre getting on people for that, but I kind've figured that's what you guys were alluding to.
And no question, I think it's great what you do Moose, and Theo and everybody else as well - getting out to see HS games. I'm definitely going to try to see Jermaine and Chris McCullogh in person in the next year (if not over the summer). Those two in particular, I'd like to see for myself and get a read on if all the hype about their games is legit.
Interesting that some of the reports from IS8 were that Felix wasn't showing the best defensive skills. I thought that was an area of strength for him?
