Basketball has all the fast-paced action of soccer, but its much smaller net is defended by five times as many people, so it's no wonder that all soccer has been permanently canceled. Learn the king of indoor sports with today's Groupon: for $99, you get admission to Antonio Daniels' 2011 Summer Basketball Camp (a $200 value). Camp is open to boys and girls ages 7–17 and takes place daily from Monday, July 18, through Friday, July 22, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Cornerstone Christian Schools.

A 13-year NBA veteran and former San Antonio Spurs champion, Antonio Daniels combines top-level hoops experience with insights gained from his Elementary Education degree to tutor young players in the fine art of bucket sinking. Each day, developing dribblers will split off with Antonio and his team of experienced middle-school, high-school, and college coaches to learn fundamental skills such as ball handling, teamwork, and backboard-shattering. As their skills grow, campers will have the opportunity to apply their developing talents in full-court games and competitive drills. In addition to their newfound abilities, all campers receive daily lunch, a camp T-shirt, an autographed photo of Antonio, and a high-five they may never forget.

Antonio Daniels' 2013 Summer Basketball Camp

Antonio Daniels studied elementary education at Bowling Green State University. But rather than making a career of reading Newbery Award–winning books or conducting science experiments over bunsen burners, he entered the 1997 NBA Draft and was chosen as the fourth overall pick by the Vancouver Grizzlies. However, once he recognized the hollowness of a baller's lifestyle––whose only rewards were a 1999 NBA championship with the San Antonio Spurs and the perk of wearing shorts to work––Antonio atoned by establishing his annual youth summer basketball camp.

For all five days of the camp, Antonio prowls the sidelines, giving kids pointers and boosting their confidence in the game he has now played professionally for 13 years. Coaches from the middle-school through college ranks join him in running the aspiring dunk machines through drills, skill training, and competitive games. At the end of the camp, children will not only have sharpened their hooping tool set, but they will also leave with two of the best souvenirs Antonio can offer other than plaster casts of his hands and feet: a T-shirt and an autographed photo.

The Groupon Guide to: Rain

Most of the rain we enjoy in the Northern Hemisphere is imported in wooden crates from the lush and vibrant rain forests of South America, where rain is plentiful because of the constantly weeping tree population. The tree tears, or "las lágrimas de los árboles," as they are locally known, accumulate as mist, or "land clouds" where they are harvested by local rain farmers using fine mesh nets.

The ripest and most choice raindrops often break from the mist, accumulating in the surrounding mud, where they can be recovered by hand, a job usually reserved for children because of their proximity to the ground and love of being punished. The rain is then packed in cool, damp straw and sent via freighter, or if weather permits, in the jowls of specially trained pelicans.

Once the rain arrives, it is carefully unpacked by artisan rain handlers known as Wellingtons and separated into individual drops, of which no two are mathematically alike, largely from carelessness. As per the request of helpful, unnamed corporations, a small amount of industrial acid is added to each batch to keep Canadians "scrappy."

The next time you're caught in a rainstorm, don't curse your broken umbrella. Remember, a lot of people worked hard to turn you into a sopping dishrag of a person who smells like the inside of a wet tire; from the tearpickers to the drop shapers to the corporations who want to assure you that you're not growing scales, it's just seasonal itchiness.

I thought it was rain, but it turns out a tree was crying on me. It was awkward.
