Nothing Screams Romance Like Proposing On The Court At Madison Square Garden As Julius Randle Argues With A Ref Directly In The Background

Look, basically everyone agrees proposing at sporting events is lame. We're not here to argue that. Because this right here? Well, this is romance. This is as romantic as it gets. The wood at MSG, the Mecca, and more importantly Julius Randle in the background bitching to the refs. If that's not romance and prepping you for marriage I don't know what to tell you. I say this as a married guy. That's right, this blogger is married and has been for quite some time now. Arguing about something nonsensical and probably something that both of you are wrong about is marriage 101. It's true love.

But let's get back to this couple. They don't know what's going on. I promise you that fella has no idea Julius Randle is behind him. Speaking of which, let's zoom in on the picture again: 

That man has no idea Julius Randle is on the court. Hell, there's a good chance that man has no idea there's a basketball game being played in that moment. Every man who has proposed knows the feeling. You soberly black out in this moment. You're just trying to get through whatever words you planned to say, waiting for the yes and then go celebrate. Those 12 seconds feel like 20 minutes - something I may or may not say a few times. You know it's a 99.9% chance she says yes, but you just gotta hear those words. 

At the same time I respect Julius Randle here. He's one of my guys and this was a game the Knicks had to win. Sorry if there's a proposal going on, he's gotta have some words with the ref and get shit figured out. Some things are bigger than weddings. Congrats to this couple of whatever, but bigger news is the Knicks won again. I don't care if it was only a 6-point win over the Pistons, a win is a win. In Season Tournament advancement, wedding proposals. You know what's coming. Knicks are back again this season.
