I play basketball 1 - 2 times a week at noon at the campus rec center. It's sometimes fun, sometimes not. You'll recall some of my previous posts about altercations with professors and such. Anyway, today I had a great time. Most of the fun had to do with the fact that I made almost every shot I took, including about 10 in a row, and I scored the last two baskets in a 15 - 14 thriller that ended with me shaking one defender and, with another in my face, draining a long fade-away three-pointer for the win.

Someday I hope to be able to have fun while (a) losing and (b) playing poorly. Today, fortunately, didn't need to be that day.

    Glad to hear you had a great time! Also glad I can now visualize where you play ball because I have been there! Love you, Mom

    Congrats! For you, I've seen it happen several times.

    For me, I would love for it to happen at least once! Maybe it might happen this Friday night in the "USA vs. France" match I have organized.

    Your dreamin' father-in-law.
