"Sure," he said.

When they got there they both had very different ideas.

"Let's play basketball," Mike said.

"No, let's play football," Russell responded.

"No, I want to play basketball," Mike said.

"We should play football. You know you are good at it," Russell said.

"I am not as good as you. I say basketball," Mike said.

"Football," Russell said.

"Basketball."

"Football."

"Basketball!"

"Football!"

"Basketball!"

"Football!"

"I have a better idea. We can play both," Mike said.

"Okay," Russell agreed and they played both games.
