Cruz wins charity basketball challenge against Kimmel

By Brooke Seipel - 06/16/18 09:18 PM EDT
 

After days of smack talk by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and late night host Jimmy Kimmel, the result of their one-on-one basketball challenge is in, with Cruz beating Kimmel 11-9.

According to people who attended the charity basketball game, the game ended at 11 points, rather than 15 as originally planned because the game was taking so long.

Cruz beat Kimmel 11-9. Kimmel has been taunting Ted calling him a "Blobfish" and even interviewing a person that was marine biologist (all the while cracking jokes comparing Cruz to the fish).

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

This is what I like about Ted Cruz.  Kimmel makes a crack about Ted's  attire.  Instead of getting angry, Ted works with Kimmel to turn the "incident" into  a charity basketball challenge.  If the crack were about Trump. we would get a barrage of nasty Twitter feed.

Yep, Cruz doesn't care about personal remarks and turns them right back around.

I will say, though, I could have gone the rest of my life without seeing Ted's legs.

Ted Cruz Takes Jimmy Kimmel to the Cleaners in Charity Basketball Game

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas defeated liberal comedian talk show host, Jimmy Kimmel, in a friendly charity game of one-on-one basketball known as the “Blobfish Basketball Classic” on Saturday night. The game raised thousands in charity after Cruz challenged Kimmel to a friendly wager after the comedian insulted Sen. Cruz for being a Houston Rockets fan........

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
