For The Love of the Game
  The point is, you’re in school, you’re part of a team, and your friends are counting on you just as much as you’re counting on them. Inspired by Sports anime, high school, college and community theatre, and riding the bench on my YMCA basketball team, FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME is an RPG about the games we play, teammates we meet, and the people we become along the way. You need something to do after school, or after work, or now that you’ve been laid off.
