Mr. Speaker, rest assured, House of Representatives, that the basketball trophy will be back in our Chamber for another year. Congratulations to the Members of Congress for defeating the Downtown Lobbyists two nights ago. We took it to them. The civil servants of our society took it to Downtown. A big congratulations to the Members of Congress for defeating them. This is an awesome event that we do. It supports Hoops for Youth, a big charity that goes to help youth sports, along with many of the other sporting activities that we do. Just to finish it off, I congratulate and particularly recognize our captain and this year's MVP, retiring Member Brad Wenstrup. Can we get a round of applause? You may hear rumors from Downtown that it required Enes Freedom, formerly Enes Kanter of the NBA, to help our team win, but that is unsubstantiated. We could have beaten them on our own. ____________________
