Thursday, the basketball team plays the best team in the league (undefeated, holds opponents under 10, etc.). Three of my starters are on a class trip; two decided to go to Taco Bell instead of the first 15 minutes of practice. Sixth man is on the said trip; seventh man is sick; eighth man is hurt. I'll be starting (in the order they usually come off the bench), players 9, 10, 14, 15, 16 (out of a possible 17). Just as in life, the faithful will be rewarded, even if they're not good at basketball.

What a joy! The last shall be first...
What a blessing! He who is laid low will be lifted up...
What a priviledge! Make sure your kindness in defeat puts a buring coal on your opponets lips...
What a delight! Paul said that he rejoices in his suffering...
Anyone for volleyball...
Cool! Jesus said don't worry about tomorrow because today has enough issues of its own...
Have you considered dressing for the game?
Call in sick...
If your game is away you might consider pulling a spark-plug wire on the team bus the night before the game.
