We’re at the half in Atlanta, with the Raptors leading 51-42.
It’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States, and Jonesy and I – with the help of many members of the Toronto Raptors – paid tribute to Dr. King by reenacting his famous “I Have A Dream” speech from August 28 1963.

Thanks to Ian Cunningham and Jeff Sammut (both from the FAN) for their assistance in the production as well.
